I really don’t have time to read in my busy life.
Kathleen Cooper on April 17, 2017 at 2:41 am

Reading “The Mystery Woman:A Ladies of Lantern Street Novel” by Amanda Quick. A detective mystery with a strong female protagonist whom explores the crimes, passions, and paranormal secrets of Victorian London. First I’ve read from this prolific author; apparently she has several “nom de plume” I look forward to reading more of her works. This one is quick and enjoyable.
- KaSonndra on April 18, 2017 at 1:05 am
  
  Hi Kathleen… I can always appreciate a Quick and enjoyable read. Especially these days when I’m so super busy. Good luck in the contest.
Cynthia R on April 17, 2017 at 2:48 pm

I am currently reading Heart of the Matter by Kim Giffin, next is The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper.
Ann on April 17, 2017 at 9:02 pm

I bought “Too Much” by Ella Miles a few days ago. But I probably won’t be getting to any of these books for a while, because I have wild ADHD… and I am not liking e-books at all. (I’ve had my little Kindle Fire for just under a year now, and I still can’t get used to it. I tried a Paperwhite, but that was even worse.)
- KaSonndra on April 18, 2017 at 1:02 am
  
  Ann I’ve found that I enjoy ebooks on my Galaxy S7 Edge more so than any other reader. Thats because the screen is perfect, large enough to resemble a book but smaller than a standard ereader which allows me to quickly finish a book. I have NO idea why that works. LoL Good luck in the contest!
Jeanna Schirm Massman on April 18, 2017 at 12:54 am

I want to read Any Day Now by Robyn Carr.
Christina T on April 18, 2017 at 1:12 am

Stacy on April 18, 2017 at 6:50 pm

Once I finish Rebel of the Sands, I plan to read the next book, Traitor to the Throne.
- KaSonndra on April 18, 2017 at 7:12 pm
  
  Rebel of the Sands sounds super cool because I totally enjoy movies and books that contain mythical beasts. Good luck in the contest dear.

- KaSonndra on April 19, 2017 at 10:26 pm
  
  I’ve only read the first two books so far. But they were most excellent. I’ve heard/read so many mixed reviews on the third book that I’m almost afraid to start. But I’ll dive in soon. Gotta finish writing my own books first. LOL Good luck in the contest!
