ReplyDeleteFifteen??? Yikes! (I have probably that many too, LOL. Let's take a cruise and read them. Sounds feasible, right? Sigh a girl can dream.)
Deletebe careful, DeAnna!
DeleteI had a vacation last month and thought I'd get ONE book read. No. Because I spent that time working on marketing.
It's great to see all of these Barbours together!
Oh, Susie, that would be SO great! I want so badly to read these stories. I'm the type of reader who gets on a tear with a particular genre or author or time period, and all I want to do is read that. All these novella collections look so great. I'd love to just get away from everything and read. :D
