  16. You are a dynamo, Staci! A freakin' dynamo!!! I wish I could get half as much read as you do. Or be half as organized. Or best of all, both!

  23. Looks like you have a great couple of reading weeks ahead. I'm interested in hearing about the Irish Country Girl.

  24. I really enjoyed Benny & Shrimp, but agree that the fun quirkiness of if wore off as story went on. And the ending was, well, an interesting move on the part of the author. But - I do want to read the sequel to find out what happened.

    Enjoy your books this week! Still Missing looks really good.

  33. I really want to read the Dracula book by Essex. There is another one by Syrie James too. Guess I'd better read Dracula first though! Can't wait to see what you think of Still Missing. Not normally what I'd read but it does look really good. Happy reading!

  34. Nice eclectic mailbox! I am waiting on "Still missing" to make it's way to me, but "Hidden Wives" is on my to-buy list based on the reviews that I've read! Great reading week for you, too!
