Book Talk…9/8/17

Book Talk…9/8/17 Traci Kenworth Nothing again this week. I’m reading Kristin Lamb’s Devil’s Dance, a craft book by C.S. Lakin, an anthology: Dark Hollows, a Christmas story by Debbie Macomber; Unblemished; a book about the drafts Louis L’Amour still had lying around (it’s fascinating), and Libby Bray’s Going Bovine.
