Mother and Daughter… working together!

At Amy's book signing in Hunt Valley, Md.

I didn't realize I was that short!!!

After months of not being able to figure out this wordpress site I have come to the painful conclusion that I am woefully technically challenged! Okay, okay….I admit it, maybe I have reached the point in my life when I have to start to pass the torch to the next generation and stop trying to do everything myself. Maybe.  Then it occurred to me that Stevie and I make a pretty good team, and we do offer different perspectives on a variety of subjects and opinions.  She likes Sci-fi and I like suspense. She likes Dr. Who…and as hard as it is for me to admit, I am too a fan (or rather I would have had we stayed with David Tennant!), and I like Dr. Oz.  She likes Manga and I like Joyce Meyer.  You get it!

We have found we do have some common ground as well. I started reading Mary Connealy’s “Doctor in Petticoats” one day and couldn’t stop telling her what was happening.  As I read about the stagecoach racing away out of control, heading toward the body of a woman stretched out on the narrow trail beside the broken pieces of her stagecoach…with a cliff on one side and the mountain straight up on the other…the brakes failing as they pulled them back as far as they could…life coming to an end for someone…the chapter ended!!!  WE AGREED ON THIS ONE…WE HAD TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED NEXT!

SO as of today, September 14th, 2012 this blog is now the joint effort of Cheri Horgan and Stevie Jenkins.  Stevie will review books she feels will appeal to the younger audiences, and of course I will read choices that will fit older audiences…and we will both review the ones we feel will appeal to all ages.  She can read the romances (romance left me in the dust years ago and she is just beginning to experience the mood swings of love).  We both love the edgier stuff, and she favors the vampire/time travel/angels vs. demons while I enjoy the horror/ things that go bump in the night/ are you afraid of the dark kind of  edgy.

With that all said I would like to introduce you to my almost 21 year-old daughter/book nerd, Stevie. Stevie, say “hello!”

Hi, I’m Stevie and I love books, art, and cross-eyed cats lol. It’s nice to meet you all. Hope you all enjoy books as much as I do. Some of my Favorite Authors include Mary Connealy, Jenny B. Jones, Melanie Dickerson, Ted Decker, Roger E. Bruner, Thomas Smith, Loree Lough and many more. My Favorite color is Purple and winter colors. <~ Something totally random lol.  I read a lot of Christian fiction books as of lately but in the past I was hooked hard time on Fantasy and sci-fi as well as all supernatural like books, such as vampire books. I’ve been hooked on books ever since I first learned how to read in fifth grade, which explains the horrible grammer and spelling. But I’m working hard to get better. Here’s mom again….

Now as they say…”On with the show!”…
