My #BOTM #BookoftheMonth for February (A River Enchanted); the #FantasticStrangelings selection on its way as we “speak” (Circus of Wonders); and the result of a no-reason-but-stress-relief gift card from my sister (the other 2, including the tagged, which I‘ve had my eye on since Jenny Lawson read it 😜).

Also, I know #sss people are waiting for matches..they‘re all done, I just got stuck trying to figure out a new mail merge program… soon…😘😘

BethM The covers of all these mean I‘m going to need to look them up later. 2y
