Top Ten Tuesday -20 Books for Christmas

 Happy Tuesday, friends! Today for top ten   Tuesday we get to pick our own topic! I decided to join the #20booksforChristmas challenge. This will be my first year joining in all the fun 😀 I love Christmas and enjoy reading books about Christmas. This is the first year that I can recall starting to read Christmas books this early. Usually I wait until around Thanksgiving. However, this year needs more Christmas and hope, wouldn't you agree? To find out what our other bookish friends are doing for Top Ten Tuesday check out That Artsy Reader Girl.

My Review:

A Class for Laurel by Amy Clipston

TTT-Next 10 books to Read

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday! I hope you are off to a great start to your week. This week’s topic is supposed to be Secondary/Minor Characters Who Deserve More Love, but that requires way more brain power and thought than I possess right now. So, I am going to go with the next 10 books that I will be reading, not necessarily in order. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what secondary/minor characters deserve more love, or others twist on the topic.

Can't Wait Wednesday-A Christmas Courtship

Can't-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we're excited about that we have yet to read. Typically they are books that have not been released yet. It's based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. This week I am showcasing A Christmas Courtship by Shelley Shepard Gray. This is the third book in the Berlin Bookmobile series and it releases October 19, 2021.

Top Reads Jan/Feb. 2021

 

 

 I have read fifty books so far in 2021. Don't ask me how I have done it because I honestly don't know. I do not feel like I have read that much 😂 I wonder how many I could read if I did feel like I was reading a lot?! Anyway, true confessions, several of them are children's books that I have done for reviews 😀(and several are in progress). So maybe that is how I have done it. So, I want to take a
