Ah, feel that lovely, refreshing breeze wafting in through your Tuesday window? Not only is it bringing you the smell of Fall, it’s carrying with it another installment of the enchanting enigma tour which is Six Degrees of Kool Books. Last week Jenelle introduced us to the gut-busting, galaxy galavanting series The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by way of …
I had such a great experience with my booktrack for Into the Vast that I decided to give it another go. So today I’m releasing my . In the the two weeks since I first dipped my toes into these new multi-media waters, my Into the Vast booktrack has been read almost 300 times and the kind folks …

Last week for Six Degrees of Kool Books we had two great books featured, Heidi, which J.L. Mbewe wrote about and The Rainbow Garden, which Jenelle Schmidt discussed. While I’ve not read either of them, they both sound like wonderful books and I hope I will be able to read them one day. Of the two, Heidi was the one I …
