I finished my #WinterNatureCardSwap cards. They go out tomorrow. And I received one from the @TheBookHippie Thank you, gorgeous card 💚

My Favorite for November was Last Rites but I picked I Am Ozzy as the first choice for this side of #BookBracket2025 @Catsandbooks

I read 5 books in November. They were all good. Last Ries and Alchemy of Secrets were my favorites 💚

A few years back in Holland's folklore class she learned about the mysterious WatchMan, who can tell you the exact time of your death. One night she manages to find him and then it becomes a race against time to find the alchemical heart to save herself 💜

Author Grady Green believes his wife is dead. Until he thinks he starts seeing her on this remote Scottish Island, where he went to get over his writers block.
#WickedWords #wife @AsYouWish

This was a reread for me and if anyone watches anything with Josh Gates then they would probably like this book. Nolan and his crew are illegally filming an episode of their internet show in the Grand Canyon when the get trapped and then it just gets weird 🧡
#WickedWords #accident @AsYouWish
#Pantone2025 #Fig @Lauredhel

So far I think this was my favorite of Harrison's books. This one is about Clio and her two sisters whose mother abandoned them years ago. When their mother dies and leaves them the house, secrets and a demon finally come out 😈
#WickedWords #missing @AsYouWish

Last Rites was good but hard to read a times. It ends very close to when he died after the last concert. As usual I loved reading about his antics but a lot of the medical stuff was just painful and I didn't realize that he was in such bad shape in the end 🖤

#WickedWords #Prince @AsYouWish

In November we visited The Acolyte. My hold just came in but I hope y'all enjoyed it.
In December its time for Vader. I've been looking forward to this one.
I'll work on the next schedule soon.

As we wrap up Last Rites and look at the second half, what sticks out to you. Personally I loved the reflections on his final concert. Still miss him though 💜🦇💜

"That's one of the great things about getting older. You stop being as scared of showing your emotions. Because you know that if you wait too long to tell someone how much they mean to you, the chance might never come around again." Ozzy ?
What does everyone think so far and is it easier to express yourself when you're older?

This was an interesting twist on the haunted house story. Four novelists get an offer to spend the night in a haunted house for publicity. They all had weird experiences there but when they leave that's when the craziness starts 🐈‍⬛

Thank you do much @Ddzmini You spoiled me. I love how you wrapped the books. They looked fantastic and the ones you picked out were perfect. I have almost bought How To Survive a Horror Story numerous times. The tote bag, book sleeves, postcards, bookmarks, stickers and other treats are wonderful. Thank you and Happy Halloween 🎃
Thanks for hosting @MaleficentBookDragon

I hated this book and would like to formally apologize for picking it as a team read. Plot: a group of jealous witches get together to punish a gross man that for some reason they have all been fawning over 🤦🏼‍♀️

This is a really creepy story. Charlotte goes for what she thinks is a typical babysitting job but instead gets caught in a murder mystery 🐈‍⬛
