Ten Book Recommendations

That will take you away...

Reading is so personal, like writing, but while we are in quarantine, I wanted to find books that would conjure up images of other worlds. Plus, one that looks like a good “sex on the beach” kinda novel!

Here are 10 recommendations that are piling up on my virtual nightstand. Each has a higher than 4-star rating in Goodreads.

Edited: 9/20/20 - Since this original post, I read "Year of Yes," and one that needs to be added to the group below. "What I was Doing While you Were Breeding." Read my review here.
