I had a relaxing week where I actually read a book from my TBR pile. 1 down 400+ left to go! LOL
I’ve been watching a lot of Holiday themed shows. I especially love cooking shows and baking competition shows focused on the holidays. Makes me hungry, but also gives me ideas. π I also have a bunch of Hallmark Holiday shows on my DVR and I’ve been slowly whittling them down. They are so cheesy but I love them. Something about the sappy and sweet put me in a better mood.
I finally got all of my Christmas shopping done! WOOT! Now all I have to do is wrap them. But the best news is, is that my mom is flying in next week to visit. She’s going to stay a while; I don’t get to spend so much time with her since we live quite far from each other. So excited!
Visit From The Mailbox Fairy
I got bookmarks from being a member of The Night Owl Reviews bookmark club! Barn Kitty is not amused LOL
Not mailbox fairy related, but I wanted to get myself a few gifts. I went to the bookstore and found some books that needed to be adopted.
I love The Lady Emily series by Tasha Alexander (It was on sale!). Throne of Glass and The Illusionists looked really really good. Has anybody read these?
ARCs
I decided to take on this really short story that looked interesting.

I’m reading my first Sarah J. Maas book at last – A Court of Thorns and Roses – and I’m loving it! I’m really looking forward to getting to Throne of Glass soon – I hear wonderful things! Happy reading! π

Congrats on finishing your Christmas shopping! I’m finished too, and everything is wrapped. I usually always keep waiting until the very last moment, so I’m very happy to be all done already.
