Books Books and MORE Books!

To say that I am behind on my book reviews is a bit of an understatement. So far this January I've read seven books which I have yet to write reviews of.  Not to mention my' to read' list of available books is vastly growing by the day (thanks to my sister who loaned me her kindle chuck full of books I've been wanting to read).  To try and 'catch up' I'm going to have to skip writing actual reviews on the past seven books I read, since none of them were sent to me by authors for that specific purpose. From this moment on, I'll try to curb my reading binge a little by requiring I write the review of the last book before beginning to read the next one.  Haha! Yeah, we'll see how this goes.  Oh and the writing? Going painfully slow.  After an amazing surge right before Christmas ( I finished three chapters in a week and a half....hey that's a lot for me.) I've come up against a solid wall.  I think that is why I've dived into so much reading.  I'm hoping to charge my batteries a little bit, okay , and I'm a horrible book addict and my sister isn't helping me balance all too well right now.  So, without anymore senseless rambling on my part I'll post below my latest readings with the star rating. And the books I have stacked around me waiting to be read are.....
