So what is up for February 2017

 I meant to post this yesterday, but sleep took precedence yesterday after work. If you haven’t notice most of Book Lovin’ Mamas is focusing on reviews instead of spotlights. Book Lovin’ Mamas will continue to post some spotlight content from publishers, but Book Lovin’ Mamas will focus on reviews again. The website is turned into more of a job that this Book Lovin’ Mama cannot keep up with a lot of times. Unfortunately, this may be the last year of Book Lovin’ Mamas, but Lil’ Sidekick and I haven’t made up our minds just yet. Book Lovin’ Mamas may be turned over to Lil’ Sidekick eventually and her sister the Rambunctious Preschooler. We’ll keep you posted if changes will be happening.

But for now…it’s our 5th year into blogging/reviewing and look for some giveaways this month. We have some books to giveaway that publishers have sent us. Mr. Book Lovin’ Mama says I have to give some away because they are taking over the house a bit too much.

I hope everyone is having an amazing 2017 so far. It’s definitely been an interesting year here for us at Book Lovin’ Mamas. 🙂

Owner/Reviewer at A Book Lovin' Mama's Blog
I guess I should type a bio here. I'm FranJessca, or Fran for short. I'm the owner/reviewer behind A Book Lovin' Mama's Blog. I've been reading and reviewing books on my blog since leaving the Navy in 2011, and I will keep doing it as long as possible. My favorite genres will always be Romance & Fantasy, and I read every subgenre underneath those two genres. (Sorry, not a fan of nonfiction, so don't try to convince me to read it.)
My obsession with reading started over 30+ years ago when I went to my first Scholastic Book Fair and found R.L. Stine's Fear Street series. Later, I came across Anne Rice's novels at my public library when I was fourteen when my obsession with vampires started. I was the girl who preferred to be a vampire over a princess any day. My husband says I would leave him a heartbeat for a vampire that looked like Spike or Angel (from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or Damon Salvatore from The Vampire Diaries. (It's true, though, and he's accepted it.)
