I’m so excited I can hardly contain myself!! Sam, Carrie and I wanted to provide for you, my avid readers, a way to not only meet new authors, but also books you might not have seen or heard about. A way to expand your reading list for the summer.

Over the next 13 weeks, I’ve asked various authors I know to come share not only about themselves and their books, but to also share five books that they’d recommend you take a peek at. There’s going to be a wide range of genre to choose from, so there should be something for everyone.

So not only are you going to meet new authors, and hear about new books, but the exciting part is there’s going to be giveaways!! You’ve got 13 weeks to enter, and 13 weeks to share these new reads with your family and friends. I encourage you to tweet, share on Facebook, Google+, and any other social media site you want to get the word out and have others join in on the fun!

So here goes…

Since I’m the host, I’m going first. Most of you already know me, but I’ll share just a little bit for those that are new. I love hiking, camping, watching my boys fish and taking long walks with my Alaskan sled Labs, Taylor and Mandi. lol, okay, they’re not Alaskan sled Labs, but that’s what I call them when I use the dual harness to walk them, it’s quite comical.

I’ve got a kindle chocked full of reads that I want to tackle over the summer, but I wanted to share with you some of my favorites.
