7. Blue in the name or on the cover for the gem and stone, blue topaz and turquoise.
8. Fire, candles, light scene (dragons OK) for the candles and lights of the season.

Mid-month and I'm up to 5 read. I posted either ones that I expect to read (hope) or that I've read and liked in the past.

@Sana- I have on my hope to read this month too. How did you like it?

I've enjoyed Larissa Ione's MoonBound Clan Vampire Series but it got a bit confusing with all the Scientific Theories, Native American Mythology and Vampire politics, lol.

and the books are so few and far between that I've forgotten what happened last.

Yeah, it's been ages since last book came out. I hate to wait that long.

I managed to read 7 books. This was a very hectic month for me. Looking forward to more fun challenges in 2018.

Great job Sana!

I only got 5 of these read. I had 3 more to read, fell down on my recommended books, and then filled the rest with favorites of mine with each category. So you did better than I did with filling in with actually read this month.

Never did get to Larissa Ione's novella. Still on my TBR pile, will put it on my starter for January.
