The weather has been gorgeous this week with tons of sunshine and wonderful, balmy temperatures. I've gotten 14 new books that I can't wait to read, and I've decided to give Goodreads and CrimeSpace another shot. (If you'd like to know more or to friend me at Goodreads or CrimeSpace, click on the links I've provided on my About Me page.) I've also been doing more cooking and baking, and I'm making a detailed plan for spring cleaning. See what warm weather does to me?
Enough about the warmth, and on to the links!
