Today I am want to ramble on something else pertaining to books.
Here is what happened to me Friday. I visited my local Barnes and Noble just planning to look around. I did have my IPad with me so I could note any books I might be interested in but had no plans to buy. So what changed?
I was in the romance section when I noticed that Jodi Thomas was Barnes and Noble's romance author of the month. The display included her books and several books that Jodi recommended. I love Jodi's books and own all of them so those did not present a temptation. What did temp me was Pieces of the Sky by Kaki Warner, an author I had never seen or read. I picked it up, found a chair and started reading. Of course I was hooked and purchased the book. I wonder how many of you have done the same?
I have finished Pieces of the Sky and really liked the story. It is a western romance with a great set of characters and a very good plot. The romance is not rushed but builds as the story moves forward. it is also the first in a series so now I have two more books to add to my TBR pile.
