Taking a break

Due to a busy schedule and time being stretched to the max I’m taking a break from the A Great New Read blog. Thank you to all my author friends, and their friends for making it such a popular place. You guys have been amazing. I can’t predict when I will be able to come back to this, so, for now…

Au Revoir…

A Great New Read – Year in Review 2015

2015 ~ A Year in Review

Time to give a shout out to all the authors who allowed me to showcase their fabulous works this year, and for their continued support of this blog. 2015 was a pretty fabulous year all around, both for them and for myself too. While the below is merely a small sampling of all the fabulous books that came out from the various publishers my author friends and colleagues write for, it was a busy year for us all it appears. So let’s take one last look at what came to A Great New Read in 2015 – and here’s hoping 2016 is just as productive.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I would like to wish everyone, Authors and
Readers alike, a very Happy New Year.
Here’s to a productive, and amazing 2016.

We Remember #Remembrance #LestWeForget

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

by John McCrae, May 1915
