book club thursday - wrap up 2018 and what's up for 2019













GOOD BYE 2018 

AND 

HELLO 2019...almost...LOL 





Thanks for stopping by for BCT (Book Club Thursday). My name is Cyn and each week myself and by BFF Ann@ Romancing the Readers   

blog about book related themes. This week we are wrapping up the year by sharing a few favorite (or maybe not) 2018 moments and sharing our 2019 Calendar. 

2018 was such fun...even if my reading seemed to come to a stand still mid way through. 


I've still moved away from romance novels for various reasons but a 2019 New Year's Book Resolution includes reading ONE romance a month, and finally purging my  books that are just collecting dust. 


So without any further ado here a a few BCT highlights: 



Remember when Ann and "interviewed" each other: 









Remember when I reviewed these books for reading challenges?
(Both are on my list of 2018 favorites)















and now for 2019!
