Reading Wrap-up for January at Moonshine and Rosefire
Hello everyone out there and I hope that you all had a terrific reading month for yourselves. I am known as Rosefire around the Internet and this is my new personal reading blog. I originally posted my reviews over at my daughter's blog, Emeraldfire's Bookmark but am now in the process of transferring them all over to my own blog. My daughter makes blogging look like so much fun that I thought that I would try it out for myself! :)
Anyway, I started out January with 654 unread books lying around the house and ended the month with 648 books unread. All of the books that I acquired this month came from Bookmooch and Paperback Swap.
Let me try to break down the influx for you:
Rereads
- Random Winds by Belva Plain
- Demon Summer by Elaine Booth Selig
Changes to the TBR pile

Well, there it is...the breakdown! All in all, a very good reading month for me. Here's a further breakdown:
Books Read: 6

Hello and welcome to my blog. I'm a newbie as far as book blogging goes, having been blogging at my daughter's blog for only about two and a half years. Now it's time for me to get my feet wet on my own. Please be gentle with this blogger. Love to hear from you all. Have a great day! :)
