Myra here.
every sunday we share the books that managed to find their way into our hands.

Love for Pansing Books
I actually got these books sometime in December. And I am glad to be sharing them with you now. I will definitely be featuring the first two titles for our #WomenReadWomen2019 reading theme.
City Of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab, Children Of Blood And Bone by Tomi Adeyemi.
The Last Wish by Andrzej Sapkowski, Blood Of Elves by Andrzej Sapkowski.
Do you have any recommended titles for our Warrior Women reading theme? We’d love to hear them.
Nice! I just requested Shark Lady and She Made a Monster from my library
