July is over, bring on August!
I was doing some book keeping this morning, seeing as how July has ended and August has begun. All of the sites, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Create Space… all of them have an end report day of the final day of the month.

No Spoiler Review The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison Allen Upon recommendation of a friend, I downloaded the audio book, The Sugar Queen by Addison Allen. First off, this is not a YA book… It’s important for me to say that because I thought it was. LOL So it was a complete shocker when the MC got in a car and drove… then half way thru the book it told me she was twenty-six.
