Christmas Trees!

There are TONS of Christmas traditions, but probably the one most common is ... getting a Christmas tree! Nearly everyone has one this time of year. Going to the tree farm with a cup of hot cocoa, just wandering through the rows and rows of Christmas trees, is definitely one of my favorite Christmas activities!!

Book Review: The Blooming of Delphinium

-
  The Blooming of Delphinium by Holly Varni      As far as hidden talents go, Delphinium Hayes is blessed with one of the more unique ones.

Book Review: The Love Note

  The Love Note by Joanna Davidson Politano      Focused on a career in medicine and not on romance, Willa Duvall is thrown slightly off course during the summer of 1865 when she discovers a never-opened love letter in a crack of her old writing desk. Compelled to find the passionate soul who penned it and the person who never received it, she takes a job as a nurse at the seaside estate of Crestwicke Manor.      Everyone at Crestwicke has feelings--mostly negative ones--about the man who wrote the letter, but he seems to have disappeared. With plenty of enticing clues but few answers, Willa's search becomes even more complicated when she misplaces the letter and it passes from person to person in the house, each finding a thrilling or disheartening message in its words.  So while I didn't find any "special" place to read this week besides the living room couch, I was able to finish this amazing book. If I were to rate this book out of five stars,...
