BOOK REVIEWS WITH GUMPTION!

Welcome!

Welcome to Avid Reader Reviews and I am excited to share my passion for reading with you.  As far back as I can remember I have always had a book or two in process, kept in different rooms and would just pick them up whenever I found myself back in that room.  It was always very easy for me to immerse myself back into that location, those emotions, of where I left off, as if I never really left.
