Hey everyone, it's been a few months since I've posted a MM so I've got a lot of new additions to share with you! Things have been kind of hectic for me lately, between the tours I've been planning for HF Virtual Book Tours and most of you know, but for those who don't I've also been busy with getting ready for my son who is due in mid-July! I'm 5 1/2 months pregnant today and feeling really good, we're getting the nursery ready and it's all very exciting! We have a teenage daughter who will be 16 this summer, so this will be an entirely new experience but we are so up to it!
Okay, back to business...here are the books I've recently welcomed to my library....

That's a lot of books! I haven't done one for a few months either but I think I am going to just let it go for now!
ReplyDeleteGreat bunch of books, Amy. I'd say you were ready for a long winter, but it may be that you're ready for a long "lying in," as they said in Tudor days! :] We're counting the months with you 'til the baby's born!
