November 2024 Reading Wrap-Up

Here we are for another monthly wrap up fa la la la la la la la la. I have no idea how it is already December. It's hard to slow down and enjoy anything when time is marching along at warp speed. I feel like November was a good reading month, so let's get to it!  I read 17 books and DNF'd one. Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in the review.

All's Fair in Love and Cupcakes

Title: All's Fair in Love and Cupcakes

Author: Betsy St. Amant

Publisher: Zondervan

Genre: Christian Fiction, Contemporary romance

Source: Own

My Review:

All's Fair in Love and Cupcakes is a sweet, quick read. There is some drama (expected for a reality TV show), tender moments, and a few grand gestures. My favorite part is the ending.

Top Ten Tuesday-Books I think involve food

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books Involving Food (That are Not Cookbooks) (Submitted by Cathy @ WhatCathyReadNext and Hopewell’s Public Library of Life) I am tweaking the topic just a little bit to books I think involve food (because I have not read these so I don't know for sure). Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.

Top Ten Tuesday- "A" books

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday is Movies/TV Shows That Would Have Made Amazing Books (Submitted by Sabrina @ Notes From a Paper Plane Nomad). Seriously at a loss, thought about it for 2 days, and I have nothing. We don't watch a lot of TV or movies. So, I am going to take a page out of Pam's book (Read!Create!Bake!) and do titles that start with a letter, I was going to go with C because I can see 3 books on my TBR cart at a quick glance that start with C, but better go with with A since it's my first time, LOL!

Ten books on my PHYSICAL shelves that I am might (should) going to read soonish that start with "A":

Top Ten Tuesday-Let's Party!

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is atmospheric books. I regret that I am not feeling that topic at all, too much brain power that I don't currently have. So, tomorrow is my daughter's 21st birthday, so I am going to go with party themed covers/titles.

Stacking the Shelves #59, Sunday Post #56, Sunday Salon #50

Hey bookish friends! How are things going for you? It was another busy week for us. My husband found out Friday morning he was exposed to Covid on Wednesday, then later that morning he started with a sore throat and a sniffle. So far testing negative but we will be low-key this weekend.

Top Ten Tuesday-Funny Book Titles

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Hilarious Book Titles. I am off to my Goodreads list to see what I can come up with. I think this is topic is going to be subjective and I am not finding much (anything) that is truly hilarious.

Top Ten Tuesday-Couples

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is books with [__] on the cover. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do today's topic on. I started looking through the books I physically own and decided to feature couples. Out of 158 books only 13 had couples on them... and I'm not entirely sure one of them counts...I will let you decide 😂 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.

Top Ten Tuesday-Numbers in the title

Happy Tuesday, friends! Today I am excited to be doing another link-up with top ten Tuesday. Today the topic is books that have numbers in the title. My first thought is that I don't really read books with numbers in them. Then I thought it would be too hard and almost switched the topic. However, I decided to look at the books in my house, my TBR list on Goodreads, and my books on Kindle to see what I had. It actually ended up being way easier than I thought! I decided I would try to showcase some that might be a little lesser known. For more fun with books that have numbers in the title or other people's take on today's topic check out That Artsy Reader Girl

Here are ten fiction books that I have not read yet with numbers in the title:
