I appreciate when a book I'm enjoying supports my habits. 😆
Smokey loves the Christmas tree. He keeps hopping up on my footstool to look at it. 😻

It feels like Christmas now that I have the tree up!

#HolidayTraditions
Starting one of my favorite Christmas traditions -- watching cheesy holiday movies with my brother -- with Genie. So far, it's been hilarious.

I'm in a bit of a funk this morning, but it's the first day of the #WinterGames! So I'm going to try to shake off the funk with some #WinterCosy reading. I've got my fuzzy socks and PJs on, a cup of coffee in one of my favorite mugs, a cosy book to read, and my Smokey cat even just jumped up here to snuggle with me.
#HollyJollyReaders
Just a half hour until #WinterGames starts in my time zone. I'm so excited!
#HollyJollyReaders
Before I completely immerse myself in holiday reads forward #WinterGames, I have a few books I didn't get to finish this month that I'd like to complete. I think the #20in4 readathon will be great motivation. My goal is to read at least 20 hours during this readathon.

I got a Secret Santa gift from someone in a Facebook book club I'm in. Someone truly gets me. 😆🥰 It's not wintery or holiday themed, but this is definitely getting added to my #WinterGames TBR!
I was super excited to see that #BOTM was already up today! I was just looking at my library and Libby for Gwen and Art Are Not in Love the other day (and neither have it), so that was a pleasant surprise. And The Kingdom of Sweets looks like a good edition to my #WinterGames TBR.

1) I love dressing in fuzzy, warm clothes and snuggling under a cozy blanket with a hot beverage and reading, especially if snow is falling outside.
2) My close friends and family gather together for a laid back potluck and games Christmas Eve celebration. I also love watching cheesy rom-coms with my brother. We watch a bunch every year.
3) Hot chocolate and soups👇
Anyone else impatiently waiting for December and the start of #WinterGames? I was fine before Thanksgiving, but now I'm ready to get going! I'm not prepared for anything else holiday related, but I've got my Winter Game plans ready. 😆
#HollyJollyReaders
I realized I spoke too soon for my #BookSpin list. I needed it to be a bit more free to leave opportunities for some books I'm waiting on to come in and to continue my shelf cleanup (i.e. reading books I already own to decide whether to keep it trade in). So this is my list. My #WinterGames TBR list also got longer because I realized I forgot some. 😆
@TheAromaofBooks
Here's a tentative #WinterGames TBR list because I'm definitely a mood reader.

I scored some holiday romances at the library today. Gearing up for #WinterGames! #HollyJollyReaders
I am so excited to finally have my hands on this book. My local bookstore called last week to tell me it was in, but I reminded them that it wasn't due out until yesterday. And then it was raining too hard to make the walk up yesterday. But after a brisk, drizzly walk, I have it and some coffee from my local coffee shop, all ready for the holiday weekend. (No Black Friday shopping for me. I'm going to hide inside with a book.)
My Pathfinder character is a Harrower and I need access to my cards during the game, so I spent some time watching the Hocus Pocus movies and making a wrap for them that turns into a wonderful mat. I finished up my sewing on the porch while chatting with my fellow players in the beautiful fall weather we are having.

I got the last Sanderson Kickstarter project book. This looks like it is going to be so good!
My #Scarathlon total is 9,822! I didn't get to participate as much as I wanted to last week, but I'm still quite pleased with the total!

I also did some Halloween coloring with plenty of #Orange for today's #Scarathlon #PhotoChallenge. Chris Ryniak is one of my favorite artists, and his coloring books are so fun!

I went around my neighborhood listening to my audiobook and taking pictures of #FallFlowers (or in this case, flowers I could find and a couple mushrooms) in my neighborhood for today's #AutumnPlease! prompt.

I had a friend recommend this to me. It's horror meets Freaky Friday. I love quirky movies, so I'm sold.

Now it is time for a favorite! I'm so excited to find out that Interview with the Vampire is streaming on Hulu.
#Scarathlon
#mischiefandmayhem
Watching R.L. Stine's Zombie Town on Hulu tonight. So far, it seems like good campy fun. And it is based on a book, so extra points! 😁

Could I really do anything other than a vampire book for #blood? 😆 #Scarathlon #PhotoPrompt
#mischiefandmayhem
The prompt #BootsAndLeaves for #AutumnPlease! made me think of the cover for this book. I haven't read it yet, but it looks good!

My favorite fall drink is basically my favorite drink...coffee! But it is extra special when it is cool enough to drink piping hot coffee in a spooky mug.

For the #AutumnPlease! photo challenge today, I went in a little different direction. When thinking about #CandleFlame, I thought of the song "Candle in the Wind," and tonight I remembered I have the perfect image for that. I had the pleasure of seeing Elton John on his last tour and snapped this image of him.
#mischiedamdmayhem
This is such a hilarious book and perfect for the #Scarathlon #PhotoChallenge #death!
#mischiefandmayhem
4.5⭐ I was pleasantly surprised by this audiobook. I have heard of Chuck Tingle because of his ridiculous erotica, but I've never actually read more than small passages. I was intrigued when I learned of his foray into horror, and I was not disappointed. (cont'd.)
I watched a bunch of Halloween Wars while I finalized/added to my #Scarathlon tracker. It's a lot of front end work to get all the formulas working, but I'm hoping it will reduce the paperwork and counting for later!
#mischiefandmayhem
I managed to catch #cobwebs and #bone on the same page in my read today, which is perfect for the #AutumnPlease! and #Scarathlon photo challenges.

My partner suggested that we put this on to chill today. It's perfect for some #Scarathlon reading! It's LofiGirl on YouTube.

I have a wild little reading companion this morning. Silly little squirrel keeps barking at me. 😆
We are finally having some cool mornings, which means coffee and a good book on the porch. I've been so excited to read this one, and a friend lent it to me just in time for #Scarathlon!

Here's my #OrangeStack for day 1 of the #AutumnPlease! photo challenge. I didn't realize I had so many orange books to choose from.

Happy first day of #Scarathlon 2023! For the first #ScarathlonPhotoChallenge prompt -- #Black -- I'm posting a book by my favorite author!
#mischiefandmayhem
I saw this on Facebook and figured my fellow #Scarathlon participants could appreciate it.

And here's my bucket list for the season!

I know for a fact that I'm missing spooky favorites on here, but this is what I've come up with so far for my watchlist for #Scarathlon 2023.
