ReplyDeleteI can't get anyone to do guest reviews for me either! I think I have my hubby talked into a Q & A style review for his latest book.
ReplyDeletePretty sure I wouldn't be able to get my husband to do a guest blog. They both sound like good books.
ReplyDeleteStaci....I like the sound of both of these.
ReplyDeleteboth look great. You'll have to charm your husband into guest posting. That would be fun. But if he's like my husband he wouldn't be caught dead blogging. (although I know he's shown my blog to some of his co-workers)
ReplyDeleteBoth books sound interesting. Maybe hubby would let you interview him and you could post it. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThat would be so fun if your husband did a guest review! Would it help him to know that other blogger husbands have done guest posts? My husband did one last month and I think he had fun with it.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you got two great books. Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteI'm keeping my fingers crossed that "The Things That Keep Us Here" shows up in my mailbox still.
ReplyDeleteBoth those books look interesting. Too bad about your husband not reviewing - tell him it's his duty! My husband does review for me occasionally but I always have to edit for language :-)
ReplyDeleteThe things that keep us here looks really good!
ReplyDeleteHow selfish of him! I love the cover for The Things That Keep Us Here and it sounds really good. Can't wait to hear what you think of it!
ReplyDeleteBoth look good but The Things That Keep Us Here looks like something I'd really like.
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting on my copy of The Things That Keep Us Here from Goodreads. It sounds great! Looking forward to your thoughts.
