It’s hard to believe she’s turning 35, though. She’s my baby!!!
Here’s what I read since my last update:
Book #4
Dates read: January 20-28
Title: The Library of the Unwritten
Year of publication: 2019
Author: A.J. Hackwith
Genre: Fantasy
Series: Hell’s Library #1
# of Pages: 372
Paper or plastic: Trade paperback
How obtained: Library
Blurb from Book: Many years ago, Claire was named head librarian of the Unwritten Wing—a neutral space in Hell where all the stories unfinished by their authors reside. Her job consists mainly of repairing and organizing books, but also of keeping an eye on restless stories that risk materializing as characters and escaping the Library. When a hero escapes from his book and goes in search of its author, Claire must track and capture him with the help of former muse and current assistant Brevity and the nervous and sweet demon Leto.
But what should have been a simple retrieval goes horrifyingly wrong when the terrifying angel Ramiel attacks them, convinced that they hold the Devil’s Bible. The text of the Devil’s Bible is a weapon in the power struggle between Heaven and Hell, so it falls to the librarians to find a book with the ability to reshape the boundaries between Heaven, Hell … and Earth.
My thoughts: A friend recommended this book, said it was something I might enjoy. She wasn’t wrong. I enjoyed this immensely (and it doesn’t even have romance!). I look forward to the next in the series (no, this does not end on any kind of cliffhanger), which doesn’t come out until October. Boo.

My writing is still going well. Ideas are still flowing. I might actually figure out whodunnit, too! Yeah, I still don’t know who killed my ghost. That should be a good thing, right? If I don’t know, the reader shouldn’t be able to figure it out, either. Right? Haha!
Happy Reading!

That will be a fun trip to Vegas. It's changed so much over the years.
Alex - I've only been once, in 2009, so look forward to see if it has changed since then. But then, I'd be happy to just see the hockey games and the Grand Canyon. Not really interested in gambling.
I saw the Grand Canyon when we went to Vegas in 2004. It was the highlight of the trip. I'm not into casinos and gambling, and didn't hit one slot machine while I was there a couple months ago!
Jennette - Yeah, I'm not into gambling, either. When Hubby and I went, we did play in each casino, but just to say we did it and never spent more than $20 at each place. We did win at one place and used it to buy dinner! :D
