TGIF, y’all! I’m so happy it’s Friday and that I get to share my mini weekly recap with you. Keep reading to see some of my new books and what was keeping me busy this week!

If you’ve been visiting my blog for awhile now, you might know that Five Things Friday was born out of a desire to include more of ME on my blog. I was writing about a new topic each week, but honestly, that got kinda old. It was hard to come up with something new each week. You know what that means — it was time to mix things up a bit. So, my current iteration of FTF was born… with some inspiration from Brandie @ Brandie is a Book Junkie.

FAVORITE BOOK OF THE WEEK

As much as I love Kathleen’s contemporary romances, I have to say I am enjoying her suspense/mystery nearly as much. This one was something special. It totally kept me guessing and on the edge of my seat several times. So good.

WHEN I WASN’T READING

I’ve been pretty busy the last few days — wrapping up things at work and gearing up for the holidays and my trip back to PA. Then, of course, there was the driving… I binged a few more Hallmark Christmas movies and watched a little football as I was doing all the adulting around my apartment before heading out.

PIC OF THE WEEK

Is it ok to use a selfie for this? Haha. I am just totally obsessed with this lip color. I don’t think I’m going to wear anything but it for the rest of the year.

LOOKING AHEAD

It’s almost Christmas! My shopping is done, my gifts are wrapped and now I’m gearing up for three days of family activities — Friday, Sunday and Monday. I’m looking forward to most of it. (Like 95% of it.) WVU is in a (crappy) bowl game the day after Christmas, so I’ll be watching that and then I head back to VA on Wednesday. When it comes to bloggy things, my Top 10 of 2017 kicks off on Christmas day and I’m excited to share those — and my special bonus author content — with you. Happy Holidays!
