Another month? ?
I’d never heard of pairing fiction with nonfiction books. And no, I don’t live under a rock! Just next to one…
Good month, Lisa. I guessing you’ve already done some Christmas shopping for the little ones?!
You’re right: I have done some Christmas shopping for the little ones already. They are the easiest to buy for, yes? It’s when they get older that it becomes harder. 🙂
How odd that I just received this post today, Lisa! What’s up with that, I wonder? Do know that I write down books you recommend if they sound interesting to me, and need to make a trip to the library soon.
Blessings!
I have no idea either, Martha! That post shouldn’t have gone out to readers at all, even in November. ha. But I got it in my inbox this morning as well. Who knows? 🙂 Apologies.
Glad to hear you’re a library person too. I’m a heavy library user. I love being able to pick books for free and return them if I don’t like them, with no money wasted. 🙂
