  • The Date Maker: A Disastrous Dates Prequel by Kayla Tirrell Morgan has had great luck setting people up in the past--she definitely has a knack for matchmaking. But college is expensive, and despite her busy class schedule and part-time work at the local coffee shop, she is unable to pay for car maintenance and other surprise expenses that pop up. http://www.alwaysreiding.com/?p=5338
  • Trying to stay cool with my #plethorabookclub read for #August. The theme is heat, and nothing is hotter than fire, right? Bonfire by @therealkrystenritter promises to bring the #literaryheat I’m looking for. I snuck outside with some ice water in my favorite @tervis tumbler at lunch and got a cool breeze in the shade. #plethorapenpals #plethorabooks #plethorabooktheme #august2018plethora #friendsread #heatreads #beattheheat
