With the school year getting ready to kick off, it’s also the time of year where football, band practice, cross country running and other activities also start practicing in the weeks before school starts. While many of us are long out of the years where school matters anymore, did you participate in sports or other extra-curricular activities? What were your favorite? What subjects were your favorite? I’m sure for many of you it was reading or English class!

I have 3 phenomenal books launching this week. You’ve got a day to get caught up on the previous releases before this week’s releases kick-off!
