My husband Dale isn't perfect, but he's been a good husband for 58 years. Last year when I was going through treatments for breast cancer, he took me to all the doctors' appointments which were three or four times a week. That...

patgalca @1creekgirl I have had fibromyalgia for 28 years. He was a pretty good helper when the kids were younger, but today I was surprised that he did FA all day. Just watched movies.

patgalca @sallypup I don't like being on medication. This is why I tried to go off the antidepressant. Four medications, let's make it three. Nope. Can't live without any of them. Who knows what damage they are doing to various organs in my body? But I have no side...

patgalca I don't think I've read any of her books. If I have it was a long time ago, but I think I may be confusing the name with someone else. Or, maybe I have one of her books in my archive of unread books.

patgalca @aureategloom It's on my wish list on Amazon. I just can't be buying any books right now. I have no more book storage space. I need to read, read, read.

patgalca I'm sure the next story is probably about Clementine and whatever man that crosses her path and the ones to follow will bring in new characters. Unfortunately I have book 3 but not book 2. I don't want to spoil it so waiting to get my hands on book 2.

patgalca This author writes a variety of romance/suspense stories. Some romance stories are sweet, some have a little steam. I really enjoy her books.

This story was long and drawn out. Very slow for me. And with the longer chapters it took me longer to read. But in general, it was a good story about a woman who inherited (though not directly) her mother's bookshop when she died...

patgalca Yes, it may have started slow but it picked up. I am way behind on reviews (I have 3 books read waiting for me to review). I'm trying to exceed my year end goal of books read. Thanks for reading and commenting.

patgalca This book was more than just a romance. There was the family history that they were digging up, which was interesting. This book was over 400 pages. After doing my Movie Musicals pick I found 3 more books on bookstores/library but since I recorded my pick for...

patgalca Using this prompt I went searching for books on books, basically. I found several, and even found 3 more after I chose this one as I was filming this for Instagram so I couldn't change my mind. I might have otherwise just because it was over 400 pages and I'm...

This story had a bit of a thriller vibe to it, but I didn't quite consider it a thriller while reading it. Perhaps at the very end. The back of the book gives very little description - "This is a story about a married couple."...
