My friend, Barbs, just forwarded this for those of you who are worried that your TBR (To Be Read) stack is getting too low. FREE BOOKS HIS BROTHER’S SECRET is on page 2, in case you don’t have it yet.

I love free books but I gotta finish writing this one before I can buy any new books. Although I’ll probably pick up Susan Wigg’s new book this weekend at the luncheon.

Also, my grandmother hat is off to the Avera Hospital system in South Dakota. The wonderful doctors and nurses and support staff took excellent care of my granddaughter, Rya, yesterday. Jon Paul and family were traveling east from Rapid City when their 2-year old daughter started having a difficult time breathing. (A cold that seemed to be getting better.) They pulled into Mitchell, SD, and found the Avera Queen of Peace Hospital. Rya was diagnosed with bronchial pneumonia. They kept her–and the whole family–overnight. She’s doing much better and they’re back on the road this morning. Will spend the next 3-4 days recuperating at my father-in-law’s home beside a lake in eastern South Dakota. My son says the caring, compassionate treatment they received has restored his faith in the people who are in the health care system for the right reasons. Everyone treated the family with loving care. Talk about Mid-western hospitality. Three cheers for my home state!!!
