In Love With Alien Santa Claus???? ROFL !!! What the H is that? I don't know what's most horrifying about this one, the concept of being "In Love With Alien Santa Claus" or the cover. haha.


Quick update, I've had a super super busy week. I didn't even manage to read half of what I had planned. :( And today it's much the same, no time to read, whatsoever. :( :(
But tomorrow I'll try and do my best to read as much as possible. I'm going to have a look at the Help Save Santa later too, to see what I can come up with for the challenges.

Have a nice weekend everyone!

great news ! We definitely came a long way since week one. We rock !
Let's continue this way !

thanks Elen :) I'm sure I will !

Woman on the Edge of Time, which I'm reading right now and definitely have to finish before sunday, has Cranberry in the text :)

another question: I just finished an anthology of short stories. Can all of the contributors be used for the spell-it-out?

Sonia wrote: "True.

Btw, that cover is beautiful. I need to get my hands on a copy."

it's absolutely gorgeous, I agree. I haven't watched the movie yet, but I have my copy already (doing an internship in a bookstore will do that to you... you just buy all the books). It got me even more excited to watch the movie!

okay, thanks !
If they don't accept it it's not lost or anything. It can also work for R (JK Rowling) and N (Newt Scamander) and others probably. I just wanted to know for future reference.

question: Wednesday I'm going to the theatre to watch The Crimes of Grindelwald (So, so, so excited! I cannot wait!!!!!) and right after that (or the day after) I'm going to read the script. The whole title is Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald - The Original Screenplay but could we count it for the letter C? the Fantastic Beast part is more like the series name, is it not?

I finally finished Tower of Dawn. I wasn't really looking forward to 'the Chaol book'. I wasn't a huge fan of him in Queen of Shadows as he started doing things that truly irritated me. And I'm glad to say it was a lot better than I expected (even though I heard from many booktubers that it was amazing, somehow I decided that I could not trust them... lol). It is maybe a bit too long though. It could definitely have been 100, maybe 200, pages shorter.
