Oh, and her name is Greer Olivia Wynter Greenwood because that's where she's from. A green wood. With a stream and a lake. The rest of her story is coming too.

Books and a New Kid
Here's a picture of the stack of books I'd like to read this year. I used to be a voracious reader but things changed. Life, finances, time, you name it. I like to read and I really want to get back into it. I don't have a Kindle yet, so these will have to do. There's history, mystery, travel, ghost stories, classic, and kid's books. There are about fifteen books, so one a month at least. I love this. Like I've got so much time in the world.
This little lady is my new kid. I got her for Christmas and I haven't had a store bought doll in ages. She's a Little Miss Matched doll by Robert Tonner. I have no ties to that company but I really like her. She's very cute, nice coloring, and she wears glasses that can be altered. She needs a new wardrobe and I will be doing some Civil War things for her as well as some Steampunk. Maybe even a little Westernpunk. I already have fabric for her first outfit, so stay tuned.

will you do reviews on the books? I have been taking time to read lately because my creativity is not cooperating-I would love to know if any of those books are ones I should read :) I love your new doll too- I have one of those LIV dolls sitting on my counter in the craft room waiting to be altered, but I keep putting it off because I'm not sure what I'm doing :) I can't wait to see the outfits you make for her! I have such a fascination with dolls- I think I never grew up :) Happy New Year my friend!!!
Sure Kim. I can do reviews on them if you'd like. I'm reading Gail Carriger's Heartless. It's a Steampunk series and has vampires, werewolves, funky machinery, and some naughty bits. It's not gory but can be nail biting. Heartless is book 4 in the series. The first book is Soulless. She's an easy read. Read book 3 all the way through in 2 sittings. Haven't done that in a long time.
I'm glad you like Greer. I've got to get some clothes on her soon. The pink is driving me nuts.
Happy New Year to you too my friend.
