Happy Mother's Day to everyone who mom's in any sort of way.
Big Hugs to everyone who feels sad on this day.
Yesterday was another exciting event in a month of big stuff a-happening at our house. My oldest son graduated from College! Man what an achievement! He went to a community college for two years and finished with an Associates Degree, and then he transferred to a local university and Saturday he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Applied Graphic Design! Not only did he finish in 4 years but he managed to keep a 3.5 GPA or above the whole time and 'only' has $12 in student loans.
Next up....finding a job! We really want our kids to have as good a start to their adulthood as possible so we are more than happy for him to live here for a while so he can pay off the student loans and save money.
How was your week? Did anything fun happen?
This week I am reviewing a Dresden Files book, The Moonstone Cove Trilogy by Elizabeth Hunter and The Coloring Crook by Krista Davis

Glimmer Lake Trilogy by Elizabeth Hunter
I don't remember where I saw this book recommended, but I thought it was worth checking out so I added it to my Kindle. This was my first time reading Elizabeth Hunter. Before I knew it, I was finishing up the third book in this delightful series. Suddenly Psychic starts off with a major car accident that kick starts the stagnant lives of Robin, Val, and Monica. Robin is an almost empty nester who feels more like a roommate to her husband than a wife. Val is a single mom of two with an ex-husband who behaves more like a teenager than a co-parent. Monica is struggling with her new title of widow. Sounds like your typical women's fiction right?
Not quite, as you might guess from the title, Suddenly Psychic the car accident changes these old friends. Each one develops a psychic ability. Book one focuses on Robin, the second on Val, and the last on Monica. The town of Glimmer Lake features in the series and it is everything you would want in a small town located in the Sierra Nevada mountains. In each of the books, the main character learns how to come to terms with her new ability, and together they are able to solve long-forgotten mysteries that are affecting the town's present day.
And we get some nice light romance! The books are short and available for free with a Kindle Unlimited subscription. I highly recommend planning a weekend trip to Glimmer Lake.
I'm looking forward to reading more from Elizabeth Hunter, I enjoy her writing and she has books in a variety of genres!

If you are reading this I might be out shopping with my daughter for her Prom dress. We were supposed to go a couple of weeks ago but then I had the not Covid cold. My daughter says she doesn't have a dress style or color in mind, so that could make this easier? or harder? Remains to be seen! Wish us luck! I will report back on what dress is found!
This week I read some good stuff that I am looking forward to talking about--a trilogy by Elizabeth Hunter for example and I watched Brigerton season 2. Have you seen it? I quite enjoyed it. I thought the lead couple Anthony and Kate Sharma nailed the Enemies to Lovers trope. Lots of longing, and a big payoff. I enjoyed it so much that now I can't wait to see what happens next season with Benedict's story so I bought the paperback on Friday at Love's Sweet Arrow Bookstore.
Also since I live with one of Harry Styles' biggest fans, I made sure to listen to his latest single as soon as it was out this past week. I quite enjoy it
How was your week? Read, watch, or listen to anything you enjoyed?
