New Blog: The Randomizer
Today we are ½ way (a bit more) through February and I am SOOO behind in my reading. Below you will find some of the books on my TBR – To Be Read List, their blurb as well the number of stars (out of five). One cool thing I have found is the Randomizer. It allows me to put in the book titles I want or need to read and spins a wheel and helps me choose. Although to be honest, I keep hitting the button if I don’t like what title it lands on!
