I’m a day late with this post- sorry! I’ll save you from the graphic details- but: Stomach Flu-1, T-0. Enough said.

Be sure and check out Tanya‘s and Andi‘s posts!

Today’s prompt:

Weekly Book Discussion {how do you pick your next read – what do you do after you’re finished reading a book}

How Do I Pick My Next Book?

Some Kind of Wonderful

Summary from Goodreads:

USA Today bestselling author Sarah Morgan will sweep you away with her Puffin Island series! In a town where anything can happen, sometimes love can be found in the most unlikely place of all…

Her whole life, Puffin Islander Brittany Forrest has dreamed of adventure. And at the age of eighteen, she thought she’d found it in bad boy Zachary Flynn. But after just ten tempestuous, smoldering days, their whirlwind marriage went up in smoke, and Brittany resolved to put him out of her mind forever.

Zach knows he let Brittany down, but being back on Puffin Island and seeing Brittany again stirs up long-buried emotions. This daredevil pilot has never felt worthy of her, yet he can’t stay away—even when he knows the chemistry between them will only complicate his life.

As long, hot summer days on the beach dissolve into sultry, starry nights, Brittany and Zach find that the sparks between them are more powerful than ever. Could it be that the second time around, their dreams of a happy-ever-after will finally come true?

 

Traveling With T’s Thoughts:

Having absolutely enjoyed the heck outta my first exposure to Sarah Morgan in her O’Neill brothers series- when I first heard about Puffin Island- I was unsure. Could I love another series like I did the first one? Continue reading

What Is The Role Of A Book Blogger?

Traveling With T What Is the role of a book blogger

A book blogger- what is their role exactly? I am a book blogger. I don’t work for a publishing company. I’m not an independent publicist. I actually make zero money off my blog. No ads. No sponsored posts. Over the last few months, I’ve been thinking more and more about the role of a book blogger- and what I want and can actually achieve for my blog, Traveling With T.
