As in, no one had seen or heard from him in three weeks. Devastation didn’t begin to […]

Coyer is a reading challenge hosted by Michelle from Because Reading is Better Than Real Life, Berls from Fantasy is More Fun and Stormi from Books, Movies, Reviews Oh My!. I am always sad when Coyer ends as it’s such a fun challenge. I didn’t get to participate on social media as much this time as it was a busy few months and I just didn’t seem to make the time for it. Let’s hope next Coyer I can make more time for the social media aspect again. Having said that I really had fun again with this challenge and […]
