Spell the Month in Books-December 2022

I have seen this meme around a few times but never on the day it posts. Today I happened upon it and decided to participate. It is hosted by Jana @ Reviews From the Stacks. Here is how she describes the meme: 

Spell the Month in Books is a linkup hosted here on Reviews From the Stacks on the second Saturday of each month.

My review:

It comes out December 13, 2022.

One of my favorite series is the Holly series by C.C. Warrens. I recently found out C.C. Warrens has an Etsy shop.

I am afraid to do this post, LOL. I have no idea how many books I actually read in November and I don't really want to see how far from my reading challenge goals I am. I have already started thinking about my goals for next year, but maybe I need to focus on completing this year first!

I finished 8 books in November and DNF 1. Click on the cover of the book if you want to read my review.
