I am a weird midwesterner - I go outside more when it is cold and below zero than I do when it is above 90! I am not made for heat I guess.<br /><br />I love MKA, and you are right - she has spectacular covers!Erin @ Quixotic Magpiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10528275471104279266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7525935409718931244.post-91357622744209683432016-07-26T19:11:38.160-07:002016-07-26T19:11:38.160-07:00Yes, blessed A/C!!

Well, now we are back down to the high 90s, yay, lol! Of course this is our "hibernate season", much like folks who live up north might hide inside when they have a blizzard or temps below 10 degrees. Our other 3 seasons are lovely. <br /><br />I like the covers of all your books, but haven't heard of them. May Kay Andrews always has covers that pull me in-- she is aware of how many readers have "cover lust" issues :)<br /><br />Enjoy your week, and hope you get to read a good book...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7525935409718931244.post-67141463369388228422016-07-26T05:52:23.285-07:002016-07-26T05:52:23.285-07:00Yes, blessed A/C!!

This high 90s stuff is a nightmare - and with the heat index it's even hotter! :( Like you though, when temps soar I think of the people who live in hotter climates and am amazed! My sister-in-law loves this weather though - I told her she is not human. Lol.<br /><br />Thanks! I plan on staying indoors, playing with my son and reading this week.

I only mention it because what's interesting is how a temp of 85 would be just fine for you, and here that was our 'heatwave'. Haha! I don't know how some people cope with temperatures more than that! Although we don't have AC in homes and such, which made night times unbearable! Anyway, I'll stop being a typical Brit going on about the weather now!!<br /><br />It looks like you've got a good week ahead of you with the books you've got lined up. Whilst I haven't read either of them myself, I've heard positive feedback about both titles.
