January 24, 2014 by Leanne Sowul 1 Comment

Before I start the review today, two announcements and some minor “housekeeping” issues (as my grad school professors used to say). First, Diane Wassick is the winner of The Power of Habit! Congratulations, Diane! Thanks to all who entered their email addresses- I’m working on some subscriber perks, so if you haven’t subscribed yet, consider doing […]

Friday Book Review: Three Wishes, Christmas Bliss

January 3, 2014 by Leanne Sowul 1 Comment

Over the holidays, I stuck to lighter reads, things I could easily pick up and put down again.

Bookshelf Link-Up

November 14, 2013 by Leanne Sowul 2 Comments

This week, Modern Mrs. Darcy is doing a link-up of bookshelf displays. Naturally, I couldn’t wait to jump on board. (For those who are new to this blog, it was originally focused on books and reading. Reading was the first, and longest, love of my life.) Voila, my bookshelves!

Midnight Snack, Part 5

August 23, 2013 by Leanne Sowul Leave a Comment

If you missed any previous installments, go back to Words From the Sowul and read from Part 1. Someone was pounding on the door, hard. Someone was calling her name. “Kristy! Kristy, are you in there? Get up!” Kristy tried to open her eyes, but for some reason, her lids felt heavy. They were pink on the […]

Midnight Snack, Part 4

August 22, 2013 by Leanne Sowul Leave a Comment

If you missed any previous installments, go back to Words From the Sowul and read from Part 1. 8:32. Kristy drove to the supermarket in a high haze of brain fog, nearly missing the turn and cutting off a woman in a black Jaguar as a result. The woman took it out on her car horn. Kristy […]
