The lovely Sunny from A Splash of Ink is hosting this Bookshelf Link Up and we decided to participate. Even though we’ve talked about our bookshelves here before, some things have changed (like moving, getting a new co-blogger) so this is a great time to revisit our lovelies. Here is the Bookshelf Link Up […]

Taken From Home, Guest Post by Jana Grissom “You call CPS right now and tell her to take me back to my mom!” screams a big brown eyed little girl. She’s hurt, confused and just wants to go home. It wasn’t her choice. She didn’t want to leave her real family in the first place, […]
Julie’s Review: So you’ve already read my reviews for the first two books in the series, so by now you know I’m a huge fan of Charlie’s sassy kick ass grim reaper self.

Julie’s Review: I already said in my review of the first book how much I’m enjoying this sassy and strong heroine named Charlie Davidson aka grim reaper. Seriously, she’s kick ass and spunky and says the stupidest things sometimes and it cracks me up. I also love her friendship with her assistant/side-kick/BFF Cookie. And then […]
Let’s talk about all things Classics. Do you like the genre? What are some of your favorites? Julie: Honestly, I’m not very well read in the classics genre. I read the ones we had to for school, but seeing as those were quite a bit stuffy and we analyzed them to death, I mostly got […]

Guest Post: Inspiration for Fly Again by Tracy Sherwood As a writer, you never know from where your inspiration will arrive.
