Joanne | 195 comments Hina, I am reading Charming the Highlander by Janet Chapman.

It sounded like my kind of book: highlander, time travel, romance and snow but unfortunately it's not grabbing me. It does get mixed reviews but overall the star rating is high, so I thought I would enjoy it.

I hope to get it finished tonight. Fingers crossed I enjoy it better towards the end. :)
