                          Thanks to our Host, Tynga's Reviews

Welcome everyone! This post is where we 'book-aholics' show off the NEW books we got, and they can come from the library, the stores where we bought books at, publishers, authors, publishers websites where we are allowed to get pick books out we like, perhaps a friend gave us a book or books, anywhere and anyhow for that matter! We LOVE to show off our books, so let the showing begin . . . !

This week, I received for review: The Witches of Cambridge by Menna Van Prag! Author of The Dress Shop of Dreams, which I did review! You can read that review by clicking on the title! It was a 2015 favorite of mine! (I'm glad I keep track of those! I also remember it VERY WELL! I MUST post the cover below this book because the cover deserves mentioning! Here it is below her NEW book!

    1. Hi Grace!
      Yes! I love reading Jennifer Scott's Women's Fiction! They are truly good books! Takes you away into the lives of others forgetting what's going on in your own life, although isn't that one reason we LOVE to read!!
      Thanks for stopping by again!!

    3. Reading Nook Reviews,
      I owe you an apology for calling you Stephanie! I just realized you left 'Stacking the Shelves' as your LINK to YOUR blog! LOL! Silly me! I got confused and thought you were Stephanie from Stacking the Shelves. I wondered why her blog's name was different than Tynga's Reviews! I'm truly sorry for mistaking that and getting it confused.
      Merry Christmas, again! I'll be over to look at your books, too!

    1. Hi Jennifer!
      Yes! This book IS getting a LOT of buzz! I'm elated I was invited to participate in the Publisher's blog tour for it! I am posting my review on the release date of Feb 9th! I was telling Stephanie from Stacking the Shelves that it came from NetGalley, so you should check to see if you can request it!! Good luck! I'm also sure it's living up to it's reputation or it wouldn't have one! Exciting!!
      Thanks for stopping by!

      I am a SUCKER for ANY Christmas book/story!!! I LOVE it when Hallmark plays their Christmas movies, too! I have the TV on ALL the time because it is so QUIET in the house during the day! It's nice to have the Christmas movies on, too! Make SURE to come back on Monday, the 30th, for another Christmas title review AND Giveaway!!!
