Itβs extremely hard to believe that we are at the
beginning of the second month of 2009. That leads to the question of how did
your resolutions pan out so far?
Most of my self improvement resolutions have gone by the wayside, but my
reading resolution to watch the personal outlay of cash for new books has held
firm, though my TBR has grown a lot thanks to a great
DFW Tea trade, and a very
generous gift card from Amazon. I also belong to another trade site that has
added a couple of books. Of all the new books in my pile only one was
personally paid for with cash out of my pocket. Not bad!

Then I had resolved to participate in two more reading resolutions. One was to
read the EYE SPY Challenge Word that one of my yahoo groups is doing. The word
for January was Snow, and I read
Not So Snow White by
Donna Kauffman. While the story was enjoyable I personally liked
Dear Prince Charming
better.

Then I needed to read a title by the author of the
month for the
DFW Tea Dinner Group.
Januaryβs author was
Laura Griffin, and I read her first book
One Last Breath. I was
totally hooked, and need to work the follow up book
One Wrong Step into my
reading schedule soon.
I only read 5 books in January, and I think
One Last Breath was my
favorite, and the one Iβm going to recommend to all my friends. So, how are
your book resolutions going? Got a book to recommend that shouldnβt be missed?
