Weekly Book Recap #101

March has definitely come in like a lion, with two storms during the week.  The first, on Tuesday, left 2-3 inches of snow behind.  The second, on Thursday, left another 8 inches of snow.  This is the winter that just won't quit, and I've got an awful case of weather fatigue.  On the bright side, pushing the clocks ahead an hour this weekend reminds me that winter won't last forever.

This past week's posts:
Tuesday:  First Chapter Intro
Wednesday:   Waiting on . . .
Friday:  Friday 56 & Book Beginning

Now, the latest book recap, which is being shared on these blogs:
