Angela: Hey y'all! It's half way into 2019 and Goodreads says I've read 78 books. My goal is 125 this year, so at the moment I'm ahead of schedule. I'm trying to incorporate more books that have been sitting on my TBR shelf into my reading schedule, but I can't seem to stop requesting review ARCs. I have willpower issues, I know this. Lol.

Review: Grave Phantoms by Jenn Bennett
Grave Phantoms by Jenn Bennett (Roaring Twenties #3) Released: May 5, 2015 Historical Paranormal Berkley Reviewed by Mandi I've enjoyed the heck out of this historical paranormal series.

Smex Scene Sunday
Hero: Winter Magnusson. Bootlegger. He is a very large, sexy man who has "impossibly thick thighs" (I approve of this) Heroine: Aida Palmer. Spirit medium. Heavily freckled - which Magnusson finds "wildly exciting." “I’m considering kissing you.” “I really wish you wouldn’t.” He lowered his face very close to hers and smelled violets again. That drove him a little mad. His breath was coming faster. So was hers; for a moment, he watched her breasts rise and fall beneath the Continue Reading
