                            MOVIES & TV
       




What movie comes to mind when you think of Valentines's Day? For me, I would have to say Sleepless in Seattle. Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan are so much fun to watch..... Sleepless in Seattle is a feel-good movie that will leave you with a sigh and a smile. I must admit that I have a soft spot for movies featuring adorable kids that steal the show. And this movie is no exception.....Jonah is adorable.

                          NEWS:


Since I already shared the best news of the week above in the Books section, I will simply share a few more memes that I created to help promote MaryLu Tyndall's newest release Charity's Cross.













                                         



                               BLOGS:

This week I would like to introduce the blog of Jasmine Augustine. In her own words: 
 I have been reading voraciously since I was a small child. Now I would like to share my love of books with you.

I enjoy reading Jasmine's reviews and thoughts on the books that she's read. She does giveaways as well. Drop on by her blog and check it out. She has a very unique rating system and she's a dog lover, which scores high on my happy scale.

He does the talking 
She does the reading
