It's time, it's time!! It's the last Monday of the month and that means I link up with Rachel and Amber for Collaboreads.

The concept is simple - there are only five steps: Visit their blogs and see the criteria for each month's link up. Go choose a book. READ {you get 30 whole days}. Write a review to link up with Amber & Rachel. Do it all over again next month! The criteria for June was that the book had to be on the New York Times' Bestseller List at the time you began reading. Last spring, I was given a sizable Amazon gift card and decided to use to download all of the new and slightly more expensive ...
