Top Ten Tuesday: Interconnected Romance Series
This week’s theme was “Favorite Secondary/Minor Characters” and while I love the idea of it, I am the absolute worst at remembering details of all the books I read! I love to read and enjoy almost everything I pick up, I’m just not great at the details. So, instead I…

I am the absolute worst at reading complete series! I’ll read the first in a series and love it, but by the time the next book comes out, I’ve forgotten most of the important details. This means that I either have to re-read the first book, before reading the second…
