An announcement I'm glowing about


Only two days after I shared how much I want to review the books I love, something awesome has happened: I received an invitation to join Afterglow Book Reviews!!! This is amazing, exciting, and most definitely the Lord doing HIS work (while I rest), and I am so blessed to have the opportunity to join this group!

For those of you who've never heard of Afterglow, here's a quick description: 

Remember the feeling you got when you closed the back cover on a book that spoke to you? How you set it aside on your end table or night stand and lay back feeling amazed, traumatized, bewildered, and somehow changed? That's the afterglow.

I mean... YAY!!!! What an awesome title and description, right? 

Also,  Lovemuffin is going to be so relieved, because guess who has to listen to me go on and on and on about what I just finished reading and oh-my-gosh-and-then-this-happened-and how-dare-they-make-me-wait-a-year-to-know-what-happens-next and... ??? Yep. Poor Lovemuffin. And let me tell you... he doesn't care about my afterglow when I'm done reading a book I loved--he wants me to aftergo away and stop talking about it! (Ha ha... pun intended!) So now I'll be running to Henry (the ol' laptop) to type all those feelings out ASAP so I can share them with my reader friends, and Lovemuffin gets a break. I'm truly not sure who is more excited. I mean, talk about a win-win!

So thank you to the awesomesauce Afterglow peeps (and Lovemuffin sends his thanks, too) for welcoming me into your group. I can't wait to share the readerly love. 

Here's the link if you aren't already following Afterglow Book Reviews. I'm sure I'll see you over there soon!

Be blessed,

Jessica

Wooooot!!!! So excited to have you on board, Jessica! Unlike sleepy husbands, we love to hear about the afterglow. :) Also, love that you're so punny. A woman after my own heart.

Looking forward to your reviews!
