Rhonda & Kaley Rhea – Fiction Aficionado

Off-Script and Over-Caffeinated (Rhonda Rhea & Kaley Rhea) – Review

Finding the beauty of Not-Like-Me!

If there’s one thing Harlow Cruise hates more than those schmaltzy Heartcast TV movies, it’s the fact that she loves those schmaltzy Heartcast TV movies. She loves them angrily. With popcorn. Pop-scorn? As if she doesn’t get enough drama in her day-to-day–directing a ministry-minded community theatre that cranks out three shows a month and trying to keep up with her aspiring screenwriter bestie, Teagan, a self-described “dramagician.”

Happy Tuesday, book lovers! This week’s Top Ten Tuesday post is all about titles.

Top Ten Tuesday – Books I Could Re-Read Forever

Happy Tuesday, book lovers! Are you a re-reader? I am, although I confess I don’t have as much time for re-reading as I would like to. There are so many great books releasing all the time it’s hard enough to keep up with them, let alone re-reading my favourites as well. Nevertheless, there are some books that I have re-read numerous times, and there are others that I know I would re-read numerous times if I had more hours in my day.

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday post! The girls at The Broke and the Bookish have come up with a really fun topic this week: Top Ten Unique Book Titles. I have to admit, I was a little stumped for a while, wracking my brain to try and think of unique titles, but once I started looking through my collections I came up with so many I had to go back and work out what to cut out!

Top Ten Tuesday – Books That Feature Adorkable Heroines

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday post. This week’s topic from the girls at The Broke and the Bookish is Ten Books That Feature Characters ___________. The blank is where we are free to define which characters we want to feature, and so I thought I would introduce you to some adorkable heroines. What’s adorkable, you ask? It’s a combination between adorable and dork, and I have to credit Pepper Basham’s upcoming release Charming the Trouble Maker for introducing me to this particular word. According to Pepper, it perfectly describes the hero, Dr. Alex Murdock: Silly in an adorable kind of way—the kind of silly
