I had a long day of work yesterday and completely forgot to post my points last night when I got to my hotel. Here‘s my check-in for the first two weeks of #WinterGames #HolidayBookDragons

I love that vampires are once again having a moment. I loved this book so much and did not want the story to end, but alas, all great things must come to an end. #WinterGames2024 #HolidayBookDragons +60 points @LiseWorks

Such a cute, holiday romance with just the right amount of spice. I loved the Christmas competition and watching Wilder and Fable stick it to her ex. Wilder is everything a girl could want in a hot, single Dad billionaire. #WinterGames2024 #WGWordSearch #HolidayBookDragons

Yesterday, my fiancé and I braved the holiday mall shoppers and went to get our picture taken with Santa. Despite being an adult, I‘ve always loved Santa and he‘s someone I can‘t wait to share with my future children. #WinterGames24 #HolidayBookDragons +10 points

This is my third Emily Henry book and I‘m seriously beginning to wonder why it has taken me so long to read her books? I loved this story, definitely more than Beach Read and possibly even more than Book Lovers. First book for #WinterGames2024 is in the bag and that‘s +60 points for Team #HolidayBookDragons

Here‘s my TBR for #WinterGames2024 Can‘t wait to start reading these and racking up some points for team #HolidayBookDragons

Had to jump on the #10BeforeTheEnd train as it will enable me to finish my romance book bingo, read some back list TBR books and complete one more challenge before the end of the year.

Here‘s my physical TBR for the #HauntedShelf readathon. In addition to these 15 physical books I have 1 ebook and 2 audiobooks that I want to read next month. #DeadSerious +26 pts

I received a finished copy of this from the publisher for a book tour I‘m taking part in. While the premise sounded promising, the book just did not work for me. I found myself zoning out the entire time I was reading it and every time my fiancé would ask me what it was about, all I could tell him was it was a fantasy with people, that‘s how little of an impression it was leaving on me. I finally decided to just DNF it.

My boyfriend and I arrived in Jamaica on Saturday on a much needed vacation and to celebrate my 40th, turns out he ended up proposing after we got to our room! 💍 🥂 💕

The last 4 ornaments for the hunt for #TeamEvergreen -Bookish ornament, favorite color, one I got this year and oldest ornament on my tree. +41 pts #WinterGames

The next 8 ornaments for the hunt: Special occasion, one I wish was life sized, picture frame on it, makes noise, represents sports, homemade, too big to fit in the palm of your hand, character on it (Disney, Marcel, tv, etc). #TeamEvergreen #WinterGames +81 points

I finally got around to finding ornaments to complete the Christmas Ornament Hunt. These 8 ornaments are for the following prompts:
-Ornament that: sparkles, had an animal on it, was a gift from a family or friend, can see your reflection in, reminds you of a family member, North Pole character on it, good enough to eat, had a date on it. #TeamEvergreen #WinterGames

My rather ambitious TBR for this year‘s #Wintergames and #TeamEveegreen. The list of 20 books include the 2 team reads, a mix of audio ebooks and lots of holiday romance. It also works for December‘s #Bookspin & #BookspinBingo which I love.

Not my best year of #Scarathlon, but still had fun as always. Yay #TeamCreepinItReal

A little bit grammar humor for #scarathlon #TeamCreepinItReal

I almost forgot to post my points for #TeamKeepinItReal. I‘ve been working so much and fighting a nasty cold on top of it, so I‘ve only managed 749. But I‘m having fun and hope to really get some points the rest of the month. #Scarathlon2023

Posted my Top 10 Most Anticipated Reads that are coming out in the first half of this year on my blog: https://readingstewardess.wordpress.com/2023/01/07/top-ten-tuesday-most-anticipa...

My best friend got me the greatest Christmas gift for both someone who took piano lessons for over a decade and for someone who loves music. I‘m absolutely enjoying this day by day calendar with a new classic song and composer each day. It‘s also nice that I can access the playlist for the text on Apple Music.

Another year in the books for the Goodreads reading challenge. Now on to 2023.

Finally finished putting together my January #Bookspin list.

Probably one of the most bizarre and disturbing dystopian books I‘ve read in a long time. The one thing I‘m left wondering is how and why the society came to create the memory police? #AuthorAMonth

“Oh what a tangled web we weave when at first we learn to deceive.” The perfect quote for this book about a young Mexican girl who finds herself becoming involved with a trio of American tourists and the subsequent death of one and revelations of a myriad of secrets and lies. #AuthorAMonth

I first read this a few years ago when it came out, it was the first Silvia Moreno-Garcia book I read and I loved it. Listening to it on audio for a reread I still love this book and am glad to have reread it as I had forgotten so many of the ins and outs of the book. #AuthorAMonth

Ended up finishing my last read and audiobook for #scarathlon so here are my final points for #TeamMonsterMash. As always I had such a great time with this challenge and can‘t wait for next year.

Ok, so I finished my audiobook. I actually read this when it first came out but decided to revisit, this time in audiobook and it did not disappoint. The reread was just as good, suspenseful and frightening as the first time I read it. #scarathlon #TeamMonsterMash #spookoween #31by31 #pointsathon #littenlisten +281 pts

This will probably be the last movie I watch for this years #scarathlon #TeamMonsterMash +6 pts

I love this series so much and it‘s the perfect read for spooky season. #Scarathlon #TeamMonsterMash #spookoween #bookspin #31by31 #pointsathon +181 pts

Current movie watch while handing out candy to trick or treaters #Scarathlon #TeamMonsterMash +6 pts

Ever since discovering the Something is Killing the Children comic series, I‘ve loved these characters and world, so I was beyond excited to discover this spin-off prequel. #Scarathlon #TeamMonsterMash #31by31 #spookoween #pointsathon +441 pts

Another horror movie classic, Poltergeist. Watched it before bed last night. +6 pts #scarathlon #TeamMonsterMash

Watched The Simpsons Tree House of Horror episodes 3-14 yesterday. +61 pts #Scarathlon #teamMonsterMash

Watched this childhood favorite last night with my boyfriend. +6 pts #Scarathlon #TeamMonsterMash

Read this for a YA book club I joined and man did it disappoint. Between the inaccuracies of climbing Longs Peak to the rather slow and drawn out narrative to the fact I figured everything out before the halfway point, this is a book I will be unhauling #Scarathlon #TeamMonsterMash #31by31 #pointsathon #spookoween #booklyreadathon +256 pts (correction: 3376 pts)
