Hi, Everyone! Authors! Friends! Blog Subscribers!

It is my best guess that as you are reading this, you may be wondering "Hey, Patricia! Where's that book review you promised me?" (And of course you are wondering that in a pleasant kind of way! Right? Of course that's right!!!)

I do have an answer for everyone - you may not like my answer - but here is the truth:

Over the last 6 weeks, due to health and family happenings, I have not been able to read as much as usual - no where near my norm! As a result of that, my reviews have not happened at the rate I would have preferred.

To the authors out there, who have entrusted me with your books, please know the books are safe, and treasured as I always treasure books. With that, please know I am at the beginning of getting back on track, so your books' reviews will be forthcoming.

To enable this, I will attempt to read books in the order in which I received them. I also know that some of you have told me there is no time limit on the publishing of my reviews of your books. And I appreciate the extra time.

Also, as of this past week, I am not accepting any additional books for review, until I catch up with myself. I fret about the books I may be passing by, as I evade accepting new - but it is only right to respect the authors I have already said "yes" to.

I sincerely hope that this is acceptable to everyone, and sincerely apologize for any inconvience caused by these review delays.

I am headed in the right direction, and I will catch up with myself!

Thank you, Everyone, for your understanding.

Patricia
