The Magic Christmas | Francine Pascal, Jamie Suzanne

pick

This is my all time favorite Sweet Valley Twins book. They are gifted twin Harlequin dolls for Christmas after a big fight. They solve the riddle on the dolls‘ medallions & get sucked into a magical world where their dolls come to life & are 2 very good looking princes. They come together to fight an evil sorcerer. I didn‘t read much fantasy when I was younger but I always loved this book. 5⭐️ 80 points. Also spent 7 hours reading yesterday = 210

Reading while processing and capturing great things #underthedustcover
This book is a gift. It reads like a 💌 love letter, but it's not romantic.

Snail Mail | Samantha Berger

Does anyone know if I can send my cards to Canada from the US now?

BookBelle84 You can try....I'm in Canada, and some locations aren't accepting new mail until they catch up on the backlog. I feel like there's going to be a lot of lost mail. They are also predicting it will take at least 10 business days to organize everything that has been sitting. 2d

Bookwormjillk @BookBelle84 Thanks- maybe I'll wait another week. 2d

Librarybelle The USPS site still shows mail to Canada is suspended. I‘m waiting for the update before I send mine out! 2d

Bookwormjillk @Librarybelle yeah I saw that but wasn‘t sure how often the USPS updates their website. Thanks! 2d

DogMomIrene Canada Post won‘t accept international mail until December 23, so I‘m guessing I won‘t have my post leaving Canada until right after Christmas. 1d

Bookwormjillk @DogMomIrene thanks for the intel! 1d

The Midnight Folk | John Masefield

I read this Book #1 in the Kay Harper duology in preparation for December‘s #ChildrensClassicRead2024. The premise of the stories is fun, but some of the slang in the book made it a little difficult reading. Kay goes on a treasure hunt in his dreams- ? Or is it in real life?
We‘ll see what Kay Harper up to in his next book- The Box of Delights

TheBookHippie

TheBookHippie It‘s weird. Interesting it‘s very beloved across the pond! They‘re celebrating its anniversary this year - some readers on IG. Box of Delights that is. 2d

tpixie @TheBookHippie interesting! Midnight folk was very interesting. I‘m debating on whether I buy the Kindle edition of box of delights or keep trying to read the free version that you showed us. I might try to see if I can get my iPad working to use the free version that would be easier than my phone…. 2d

Tamra What a cute floof!! 2d

tpixie @Tamra @dabbe Ha! Floof is a perfect description! Her hair is getting long! She‘s going to the beauty shop tomorrow and I‘m going to get it shorter because it gets tangled so easily with her fine undercoat. I suspect she‘ll need to be wearing some Christmas sweaters for a while!! 2d

Tamra @tpixie even better! 2d

Grinch's Great Big Flap Book | Dr Seuss

Thank you, Misty for my card! I have such a heart for the Grinch (I FEEL him..lol). Hope you are doing okay during this tough season. Praying for you and your family. @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks #litsylove

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I feel him too, but I‘m trying. If it weren‘t for my husband I would hole up in my house and not talk to anyone 💔 thank you 🙏🏻 🫂 5d
