Could be the flue. Hope Mr. Barb will be better VERY soon!! :)<br /><br />That's really crazy weather you've been having! Of course, here in Miami, there's no snow. (And I wish there were! Never seen the stuff!) We mostly have summer all year long! Lol. However, we do have some cold days, mostly in January and February. Occasionally, we will also have cold weather in December. Lol. But our temps have been fluctuating some, too; two weeks ago, we had temps in the 80s during the day, and in the 60s and even 50s at night! <br /><br />About your reads -- I am HUGELY enjoying "Dread Nation"!! I think it's because it's not heavy on the blood and gore, not is it all that scary, so far, anyway. It's the female MC -- Jane McKeene -- that has me enjoying it so much. The author is using her as a mouthpiece to criticize racism, and it rings true even in our own times. It's just AWESOME!! :)<br /><br />As for your other reads, I might be interested in "The Vampire Within", except that I HATE that cover. Honestly, it's SO cliche! I've just checked out "Let Me Lie" on Goodreads, and it's definitely not for me! Lol.<br /><br />I was so saddened by Prince's very untimely death....It seems as if the BEST people die young.... I'm glad, though, that it was accidental, and not intentional. Very sad, though. :(<br /><br />Hope you're having a GREAT day!! Sending some good vibes to Mr. Barb!! HUGS TO YOU AND THE PUPS, AND WOOF, WOOF TO THEM!! <3 <3 <3 :) :) :) <br />Maria Beharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13635809880830316283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-619089912491955920.post-75245612233887758782018-04-25T09:04:09.624-04:002018-04-25T09:04:09.624-04:00We've had some rain this week but at least it&...We've had some rain this week but at least it's been warmer.
