You’re probably wondering what a Book Voyage is? Well let me tell you.

Have you ever opened a second hand book and found notes left behind to get a glimpse into someone else mind and thoughts while they read? Have you ever wanted to know what your friends really thought of while they were reading your favorite book? Have you ever wanted to get into annotating or have already been into it but would love to share it with others? Then join us on our first ever Book Voyage.

The Scoop

We will have a group of five to six book lovers who want join us on this first Book Voyage. You will take your favorite book and send it to someone specific in the group and someone will be sending you there’s. You will have two months to read, reflect, and write notes directly onto the pages. The notes can be anything from snarky commentary to love notes and even doodles if that’s what inspires them during reading.. Ever two month you will be sending the book you have to your assigned person and will be receiving one until everyone’s book has made it back to them with everyone’s thoughts. We each will have a color dedicated to us so we can see everyone’s specific thoughts.

It Is Monday What Are You Reading??

It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? a place to meet up and share what you have been, and are about to be reading over the week. It’s a great post to organize yourself. It’s an opportunity to visit and comment and er… add to your groaning TBR pile! This meme by  Kathryn at   The Book Date It has been since October that I have had any fun with all the weekly things I do here on the blog and I am so glad I am back! So let's get right into what I am reading! NIGHT SHIFT BY ALEX FINLAY I really enjoyed Alex Finlay's previous book Every Last Fear, so when I saw Night Shift on Net Galley I knew I would want to read it. I am reading this on my kindle so I am a bit slower at finishing it due to mostly reading it at night when I do not want to bother my husband with lights being on...I mean I have to be nice, he gets up early to go to work. He tells me it doesn't bother him, but I feel like it is a nice thing to do! Here is the summary: It’s New Year’s Eve 1999. Y2K is expected to end...

Can't-Wait Wednesday is hosted by Tressa at  Wishful Endings  and gives us a chance to highlight books we are patiently waiting to fill up our TBRs with. I love spooky season, not all the pumpkin spice items they now have that stock the grocery shelves, but the creepy books I can snuggle up with wearing a comfy sweater. Who am I kidding...it is still too warm here to wear a sweater in October. Despite the sweltering 100 degrees weather here on the Oklahoma prairie, I am thinking about all the creepy and thrilling books I can stack my TBR list with, and Summer Sons is really close to the top of my list! SUMMER SONS BY LEE MANDELO Hardcover ,  384 pages Expected publication: September 28th, 2021 by Tordotcom Andrew and Eddie did everything together, best friends bonded more deeply than brothers until Eddie left Andrew behind to start his graduate program at Vanderbilt. Six months later, only days before Andrew was to join him in Nashville, Eddie dies of an apparent suicide....

Sunday Salon: Diningroom is finished!

 The Sunday Salon is hosted by  Readerbuzz  I was born into the military, both my parents were in, my entire life was spent on military bases around the world, I married into it, and I also raised a boy who grew up to be a military man, so first and foremost I would like to pay a small remembrance to the 13 servicemen and women who lost their lived this past week in Kabul and also the families left behind. It saddens me that these young men and women lost their lives at such a young age. --------------------------------------- We finally finished our dining room. It actually went so much easier than most of the rooms we have done! I know I said I was unsure about the blue, it seemed too bright, but once everything was put back in I loved it. When living in a 100-year-old house there is always the next project, so on to the Butlers pantry which is between the dining room and kitchen. We have ordered wallpaper for it and it will not arrive until September 9th so we have a b...
