For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.

That's a great word, but I doubt I'll ever have a chance to use it. Thanks for participating today!
New word to me. I wonder if my ancestors, farmers all, used this word....
Never heard of that one ever! Good choice today.
Great word! How interesting to come across a word whose inventor is known!
I like the new word. I saw lots of sillion on a recent road trip through farm country. Now I can show off my new word. Thanks.
