Welcome to Booksie's Blog! I write reviews of what I've read, some of which were books sent by publishers or authors. If you would like for me to read and review your book, please contact me. I'd love to have the chance to review for you although I don't usually read to deadlines. My email address is skirkland@triad.rr.com I can't accept everything but I do read and review everything I accept. I average about 10-12 reviews a month. I tend to favor physical books over ebooks for review.

Booksie's Shelves, April 21, 2015
It's been a busy couple of weeks! We've been to Georgia for Easter, then my daughter went back to Atlanta this past weekend for a choir trip. I got to spend the night in Charlotte and have a great steak dinner out with my husband, which was fun! This weekend is keeping the grandkids while their parents attend a wedding.
