#InternationalWomensDay Project

In honor of #InternationalWomensDay, I want to raise human trafficking awareness. 
*-An estimated 24.9 million victims are trapped in modern-day slavery. Of these, (19%) were sexually exploited,
*-71% of trafficking victims around the world are women and girls
*-As many as 1 in 6 runaways reported to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children likely became victims of sex trafficking.
*-63% of victimized kids Thorn encountered had been advertised online
These are just a few of the terrifying stats.

Want to join me in supporting a good cause? I'm raising money for Thorn and your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate $5 or $500. Every little bit helps. Thank you for your support. I've included information about Thorn below.

Thorn builds technology to defend children from sexual abuse. We join forces with the sharpest minds from tech, non-profit, government and law enforcement to stop the spread of child sexual abuse material and stand up to child traffickers.

Independent Reviewer for Archaeolibrarian - I Dig Good Books! And Readers Isle- Escaping Reality in Fiction! I received this book from Hot Tree Promotions in return for a fair and honest review. Elizabeth was dealt one of the worst blows one can be dealt: her mom died. Upon her mom dying, she started having bizarre dreams that seemed almost lifelike. Once she started living with her aunts, life as she knew it, ceased to exist. She learned she possessed some incredibly strong powers and had very large shoes to fill. Could she do it?  Would she have to do it all alone or would she have help from others? Who would all come together to fight the council and what side should she chose? Sire Wesley is a “prince” of the elves. Wesley is immediately attracted to Elizabeth. Wesley has the ability to transform into a Panther and further learns that his race is able to use telepathy. He teaches Elizabeth about his family’s history and knowledge that will aid Elizabeth in learning n

The McKettrick's: by Linda Lael Miller

   Linda Lael Miller is a talented writer. She brings us an entire family, from the frontier days to today. And not once does she skimp us on personality and flaws in her characters. Every person and animal in her books is completely unique and memorable. From Angus McKettrick, a rough and tough cowboy from the frontier days, to Bamboozal, the pony Austin got for his tenth birthday. I love this family. I can probably trace their family tree easier than my own, and they are fictional.    Aside from the awesome characters, Miller also gives us unique plot twist in each book. Of course they’re all ranchers, so the cowboy theme stays the same. Each book gives you new laughs, sorrows, and crazy events to keep you guessing. However, they all keep the family legacy in tact. While reading the books look for these things, McKettrick blue eyes, McKettrick pride, and the hand carved bed given to Lizze M. as a wedding gift from her father Holt.    Here’s a rundown of the McKettrick’s accordi
