Think of this as the caption. I figured that for those of you who didn't want to watch the video or for my deaf friends that I should still type it out.... :)


Hello... It's Linda again. This month I am actually participating in nanowrimo along with my full time college classes and virtual schooling my kids. I think I am overwhelming myself and I have no idea why I keep doing this. I got a little behind this past week and I am so sorry. I will do better this week. :)
I've been asked to read some exciting books these next two weeks.Two of them are part of a blog tour, one was sent to me by the author and the other is from the publisher. Woot! Okay….

The first one I will talk about is The Soul Reader by Gerard Webster. I actually just finished it and the review will be up on Tuesday.  So I don’t want to say too much but this is a thriller that has plot lines twisting all over the place. It’s an exciting read that keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout the entire thing. Loved it!!

No Holly For Christmas by Julie N. Ford. I just read some about this book from the author and apparently the main character is very different from the cliché girl who is beautiful and has no idea and has self doubts about what she can do. Instead, Holly knows it and is haughty about it so I’m excited to read this one. It is a romantic thriller that happens during the Christmas season, I mean, what could be better?

India was One written by An Indian.I don't know anything else about this author. In this story India is divided into to two - north and south- and a couple is divided. I don’t know much more about the story but it has gotten some really great reviews and sales in India start on November 17th so I will be reviewing this before then.

The Secret of Lies by Barbara Abate. This one appears to be about a woman who is suffering from depression and the only way to pull herself back together is to resolve issues from the past.

So, I have a few exciting books to read this week and I’m super excited about a few of them. I think they’ll be awesome!! 
Don’t forget about my giveaway, You Don’t Sweat Much for a Fat Girl. It ends on the 30th of November so go and enter it now!!!
