Age 30+ ... A Lifetime of Books: And The Winner Is ...

Who AM I?

That's a good question ... I'm a daughter, a wife, a mother, a sister, a friend ... and there's so much more! But for the purpose of this blog I am a first and foremost a reader.

When I was in the first grade I read The Hobbit and my love of Fantasy took root. By the time I left elementary school I had completed the entire series as well as The Belgariad by David Eddings. Seventh grade brought me the beginning of Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time series ... which is still not complete. High school and college introduced me to the classics and to history. My reading disappeared for several years when I had a child. Then I started a book club and it came back in full force.

Today I read anything that catches my eye ... at the moment that includes historical fiction, fantasy, literary fiction, and any titles I find interesting. I'm always on the lookout for the next great find ... any suggestions?

And The Winner Is ...

Thank you to everyone who entered the contest to win a copy of RECEIVE ME FALLING. Author Erika Robuck sent me the following email announcing the winner:

It was a very difficult decision, but Regina’s stuck out to me because of how well thought out it was, and how she used another example to illustrate her point. I really wish I could give books to everyone who answered.

Congratulations Regina! I'll be in touch via email to get your mailing address.

And thank you to everyone who submitted a response to Erika's questions - I enjoyed reading all your answers.
