It's Monday

#SupportSheila

So many Mondays I have posted my "It's Monday, What Are You Reading?" post. This Monday I'd like to offer my condolences to Sheila McKinney DeChantal, who book bloggers know for her sunny attitude and her amazing positive energy. Sheila, of Book Journey, lost her son Justin in a car accident on April 4th. 

Jenn from The Picky Girl has a post with more details, as well as information about the GoFundMe (gofundme.com/supportforsheila) effort that will establish a memorial for Justin at Brainerd Public Library.

Thank you for this post -- I hadn't heard -- but want to support Sheila.

I cannot get Sheila out of my mind and cannot imagine her pain. They've closed the Go Fund Me campaign.

I love how the book blogging community came together to support one of our own!
