For the last Cannonball, I reviewed books 1 and 3 in the Wallflowers series and enjoyed them; I was asked if I was going to read the Bowman sisters’ books? I am very glad I did, because Lillian’s book, It Happened One Autumn, is possibly my favorite of the four.

I Really Wanted To Like This (Part One)
I love Richelle Mead’s young adult works. I started reading Vampire Academy at it’s inception, following the story to Bloodlines. I knew she had written novels for adults, too, and had wanted to check them out. So I cracked it open and dove in.
A Holiday Treat to Indulge a Reader…
DragonDreamsJen’s #CBR7 Review #1 Our First Christmas by Lisa Jackson Every year, during the school break and holidays, I indulge in one good Christmas themed romance novel for sheer entertainment. This year, after finishing my B.Ed degree and the 15 week teaching internship that went along with completing the last stages, I finally had time again to read MORE books for the sheer pleasure of it and decided to sign up for a CannonBall challenge again.
