Greetings my lovely reader friends! Long time no talk. For those that celebrate it, Happy Mother’s Day!

Bout of Books – Spine Poetry Challenge
Time for my first Bout of Books 7.0 Challenge! Escape Through the Pages has challenged us to create a poem out of book spines. Sounds easy enough, right? The catch is, that you can only add in as many extra words as you have books. *phew* This one took me a while to figure out, but here’s what I came up with!
