And--here is my Dueling Darlings Post:

 



It is the 15^th of the month and that means another Dueling Darlings challenge.  Our hostess this month for the Divas is Laura Jean.  The theme that Terry, the hostess for the Dazzlers and LJ came up with relates to the month of January—Book Blitz Month!

What a fun challenge and LJ sent us loads of fun papers, ribbons and other embellishments to play with—along with some great images.    I was able to use one of all of the cute images she sent on my card.  I do love to read and have both “regular” books as well as digital books going right now.  I am reading Scalpel and the Soul, by Dr. Allan Hamilton on my phone or iPad and then the rather large (944 pages!)Lincoln paperback book—Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin.  Both are very, very good.  I think my favorite author is John Grisham……………. I love reading about lawyers!

Here is the inside of my card.
