…to put actual bricks in 😂 Only doing spots on the wall for accents; the majority of it will be hidden behind furniture and book cases. Hence; I see the crookedness, and I like it 😃

My Future Personal Library!
It’s Always a Great Day…
So this is my life…
Tomorrow I am power shopping to get my library done. So excited for a comfortable, warm, inviting place to read.
Today? This is my bedroom…

I have two bookshelves already full in the basement that I have to move, and boxes filled with books that are waiting on my bookshelves.
Before and after pictures coming soon!
Friday Funnies!
For All my Sherlock Fans!
Friday Funnies!

So True! I have been very good so far this year and only bought one book when I took my girls to Barnes and Noble. But I have to say; they have another library puzzle that I will be buying. Other than books, puzzles are my favorite thing EVER!
I have 3 framed puzzles of libraries in my bedroom, and cannot wait to add this to the mix! For my new personal library, that is.
I am so happy that my girls have been reading non-stop, and I started a new fantastic book that I cannot wait to review.
When you buy a new book, how long does it take you to open it, and ignore everything around you?
Me? About 10 minutes!
What are you reading right now?
Priceless – Luke & Joel Smallbone
What a fantastic story! It is a quick read, and I could have finished it easily in a day. If I wasn’t trying to move, homeschooling, and working, that is.

I did not get to see the movie while it was in limited theaters, but I will be purchasing it on Valentine’s Day when it is released to DVD.
If you have daughters, sisters, nieces, or any young woman in your life that is important to you; this is a must read. I became familiar with For King & Country because I only listen to Christian music in my vehicle. Although I cannot control what my girls listen to when I cannot monitor cell phones, computer access, I refuse to listen to the crap on the radio that is degrading while they are with me.

Now I don’t care what my 2 youngest girls may try to say; we had an amazing time at this concert and rocked it out! Yes; Christian music rocks. We had perfect seats, and literally had the band right behind us at one point.
Priceless the song, and Priceless the story are amazing, and whether you are an agnostic, Christian, Atheist; it does not matter. This message is universal. Seeing them Live? That was Priceless!
Gingerbread Cookie Murder – Joanne Fluke
Another great series I love; and this one includes recipes!
Okay; I have not tried the recipes, but they sound amazing! I have my staple of Christmas goodies I make every year, but I really need to hop outside of that small, boring box!
So, for the good stuff. A Christmas story full of murder and mayhem. What more could you ask for?

Hannah Swenson seems to be the most unlucky person you could ever meet. Unlucky at work, unlucky at love, and very lucky at finding murdered people. But, she has more than one suitor at any given time, so really; how unlucky is she?
This story has multiple murders, and multiple suspects. What more could one ask for on a negative-zero-wind-chill day?
Sorry; that is just my Michigan-me talking 🙂
While Hanna tries to run her cookie store, everyone else tries to run her life.
Have you read it? Do you love it as much as I do? Let me know! And if you ever tried the recipes, I have got to know what you thought!
Murder on the Half Shelf -Lorna Barrett
Out of all the books I have read in this series so far, this one has been my favorite! I know some people do not like reading a series about a small town person who always seems to find the murdered body, but I really like these stories.

The characters are familiar, and you are a part of the small community. Stoneham, New Hampshire in this case. A small tourist town that has made its mark with various bookstores that the vacationers love.
Case in point: one Tricia Miles, owner of the “Haven’t Got a Clue” mystery book bookstore. Her sister Angelica is close by, running her own cookbook bookstore, as well as a lunchtime diner. You can really relate to these characters, and will definitely find your favorite town character to love or hate.
Unfortunately for Tricia, a long lost lover, aka faked-his-own-death-20-years-ago, is back in town. His wife is murdered, and that leaves only two main suspects.
I prefer to not divulge too much in my reviews,  but I definitely want to hear from anyone who has read these stories as well! I will be more detailed in future reviews of this series, but do not want to be the one who posts the spoilers.
Did you love them, or hate them?
