Nat (waterfallz) | 655 comments I finished Kisses and Croissants to lock in my character as a satyr, and Out of Tune to lock in that she is a bard. Reading has been a lot better for me this month than the last few, which is kind of surprising, since I'm still really busy.

Yay! we're both Evil Elfs 😂

Also it's fine if you didn't finish building your character in December
You just have to have it completed before you could start any of the campaigns

Lol it did sound pretty awesome!!


message 28: by Nat (new)

Nat (waterfallz) | 655 comments I finished Closer to Nowhere, and I changed my TBR for my remaining two prompts, because Slingshot was unenjoyable, so I switched to The Flipside of Perfect which I am enjoying, and I switched the book with a bird on the cover to An Enchantment of Ravens because it meets a prompt for the TBR challenge and I could swap it.
