**Wow It's been a while since I've visited. I think I finally have time to read and get back into bookcrossing. So glad to be back after a year and a half of hiatis. **
The picture on my bookshelf is of my adorable 1 year old pup Harley and my cute 3 month old puppy Reese. I will be changing the picture often. I will update the dogs pictures soon.
Harley at 1 year old.

Reese at 10 weeks old.

Thank you to everyone who participated in my Help me name my new puppy RABCK Contest. The Winner was littlemix who submitted the name Boscoe.
Watch for posts from me in the Wish List forum to RABCK some of the books I have received.
I know my tbr list seems quite long, but I will get them all read, in due time. The only books that will be put off are ones registered by me, or books recieved in a relay. Ray and Rings will always take top priority, followed by RABCK's.
If you see something on my list that is marked available that you would like to read please just ask, I just might trade or RABCK it. Ahh who am I kidding, I will definitley trade anything on my available list.
*** Any book registered by me that is marked tbr can become part of my permanent collection after reading it.
