How Many Books I Own (2024 Edition)

 For the past few years  I have been posting how many books I own and I decided to do it again this year. Last month I went through and scanned all of my physical books that I own .  Let me tell you it was a long task.  Let’s see.. last year I had 330 physical books.  I bought some since then.  I also got some for review and I had gotten a few gifted to me. I did also unhauled some so you would think I would either have more books or less right? Well funny enough I still have 330 ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ.

  Title: Indiscretion Author: Vi Keeland Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance Cover Design: Sommer Stein, Perfect Pear Creative Photographer:  Mark Mendez Model: Jeffrey Wiegers Release Date: January 13, 2025 BLURB He's her boss. She's his greatest temptation. The first time I met Dawson Reed, we wound up in bed. The problem was, neither of us knew the other were there. When I woke up in the middle of the night and found a stranger next to me, instinct kicked in and I attacked the intruder. Only it turned out, the man wasn’t an intruder at all. Dawson had rented this cabin, too. Apparently, a system glitch allowed a duplicate booking. We’d soon find out we were in town for the same wedding, and Dawson was the groomsman I’d been warned about. He was as tall, dark and jaw-droppingly gorgeous as my best friend had described. Though she was also right when she’d said you two will hate each other . When daylight rolled around, Dawson and I attempted to straighten o...

Tis the season to be tempted. All Beth Michaels wants for Christmas is a fresh start. A new job in a new city is her chance to finally break free from her overbearing yet well-meaning mother, not to mention her small-town notoriety as NHL superstar Ben Michaels’ little sister. But her dream of independence hits an unexpected snag when a housing mishap leaves her with no choice but to move in with Ben’s best friend and teammate, the broody (and gorgeous) Foster James. As a top goalie, Foster has always been great at handling high-pressure decisions and sticking to the rules. But there is one rule he finds impossible to follow: don’t fall for your best friend’s sister. After years of being alone, resisting the sweet and funny Beth may be the toughest challenge he has ever faced. The goal was to keep their relationship under wraps, but plans have a way of becoming tangled during the holidays. O Goalie Night is a holiday hockey romcom. It is the first in the Ottawa Otters standal...
