• Books, books, books …

    Giving books for presents makes me happy — and so does getting books as presents myself. New books! Wha-ha-ha!

    Okay, I think that’s enough evil laughter for one day. Here are some books that I got for Christmas this year:

    Baby Its Cold Outside by Addison Fox (contemporary romance)

    Kissing Comfort by Jo Goodman (historical western romance)

    Princess of the Midnight Ball by Jessica Day George (fantasy young adult)

    Until There Was You by Kristan Higgins (contemporary romance

    I’ve been reading quite a few contemporary romance and young adult books over the past couple of months, and it looks like it’s a trend that’s going to continue into 2012.

    Of course, there are already several books I’m looking forward to this year, including Lothaire (paranormal romance) by Kresley Cole and Rainshadow Road (contemporary romance) by Lisa Kleypas.

    What books did you guys get for Christmas? What are you reading and enjoying right now?

  • Resolutions …

    Well, it’s time for those New Year’s resolutions. Mine are pretty much the same as last year, although I’m hoping to make more time for myself and hopefully be less stressed this year. Here are my resolutions in no particular order:

    1) Write more.

    2) Read more.

    3) Spend more time with family and friends.

    4) Make more time for myself.

    5) Eat better and exercise more.

    6) Just try to be a better person.

    7) Be more considerate of others.

    What about you guys? Any resolutions this year?

  • Merry Christmas …

    I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. Hope you are all able to spend the holidays with your family and friends and that Santa brings you lots of books, e-readers, and more to help you ring in the New Year.

    Merry Christmas, everyone!

  • Holiday break …

    I’m going to take a break from blogging during the holidays. I know I have a lot going on (including some book deadlines) and so does everyone else.

    I may do a few quick posts or some book reviews, but I’ll mostly be on hiatus from now until the end of the year. I’ll be back blogging on my regular Monday-Wednesday-Friday schedule starting the first Monday in the New Year, Jan. 2.

    Until then, hope everyone has a great holiday season. Stay safe and warm!
