It is hard to believe 2020 is already coming to an end. Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy for the new year, but I did have some highlights this year…

  • I published my first book “Goodnight, Little Grubb”
  • I started querying my first romance novel “Rhys of Novia”
  • I sent “A Second Chance” off to be professionally edited for indie publishing
  • I started a new Tarot Reading Business to help me cover editing/publishing costs, and…
  • I read nearly 80 books!

As much of a dumpster fire as 2020 was, I did have those highlights and some AMAZING books that I read this year. I figured with the year nearly over it would be the perfect time to share my TOP 10 READS OF 2020! If you are looking for some new novels to dive into in 2021, might I interest you in these?!
