I'm quite excited to finish out the year with this. I have some time off from work and my ever growing tbr. So thick socks, hot cocoa, a cozy blanket, and off I will happily go!


message 9: by Kassandra (new)

Kassandra | -1 comments I'm excited too! I doubt I will plan anything specific as I plan on getting books for Xmas but I don't know specifically which. I provided a list to my family so it will be a little surprise as to which they choose!

Renee, I love reading with soft, thick socks and a comfy blanket in the winter. Add a roaring fire and life can't get any better!

One of my all time favorite series :)

It will be a busy time for me, with kids being off of school, so I'm going to set a goal of 3 books-

but I don't know which ones yet :P

Janet C. (goodreadscomjanetveil) I want to finish up the books I've been working my way through and have put down-- I'm also tempted to snuggle up with a few of my favorites :)


message 13: by Amber (new)

Amber (amberterminatorofgoodreads) Right now I am reading The Name of the Wind then will get to other reads. I'll be on this one for a while as its a long book.

Sue | 4 comments There is something about the holidays that makes me want to read high fantasy. I'm not sure why, but I've neglected Robin Hobb's Farseer series. I'm going to rectify that.

Happy (worldhasteeth) Jim Hines' Rise of the Spider Goddess: An Annotated Novel for the lulz, and then I'll start on my 2015 Diversity Challenge.
