Great Danielle, I don't have any vowel books on deck. :)

Tara - hope your little guy is feeling better. Glad you had a nice Thanksgiving though.

Faith - the spreadsheet gives you automatic points for your page numbers, so you already had the right amount for The Art of Being Normal, but thanks for checking up on yourse.f ;)

Tomorrow is December 1st already! Unbelievable. It is ridiculously warm here - barely freezing, less than a cm of snow on the ground and no ice on the lake yet. It's going to be a lean winter for tourism if this keeps up.

Anyone planning to do the Winter Seasonal Reading Challenge? I have about half my books planned so far. Fortunately every book counts for this challenge too.

Now to finish my dancing book.

I read which is YA romance, something I generally avoid.

I went to bed at 7:30 last night, so very little reading yesterday. I wish I could say I got a great night's sleep and am refreshed, but... :D

I will finish up my dancing book today and because I only have about 100 pages left in my before bed book (the lion book), I might finish that one tonight. I'm savouring it though, so we'll see.

Hope everyone has/had a good Monday.

Updated to here.

Looks like fire to me.

Updated to here.

No fire anywhere on our covers, that surprises me almost as much as not having an ocean. :D

Donna's book has twins.

Awesome! I do have a lion in the book I am reading now. But it is a long one and I am reading it in short bursts. Maybe someone will beat me. I can read this book today for people dancing on the cover.

Donna - are any of the shifters in The Order of the Golden Dragon lions?

I finally found a book that starts with "this" so I'm reading it. :)

Others from the list -

and a bunch of self-help stuff if anyone is interested.

Anyone trying to recover from a broken heart? is also a popular Arabic book. ???

NEW GOAL -- Read a book that is in the "Best Arabic Books" Listopia List (https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/3...)

Since we used Arabian Nights already, that one is going to take some investigation. :D

Read a book with a planet, star, sun or moon on the cover.
Used Danielle's

NEW GOAL - Read a book shelved (listed on the first page of the "top shelves" of the book) as stories - plurals and minor spelling variations are acceptable.

I was able to find a book with "short-stories" so I'm checking to see if that is acceptable.

I think the book I am reading was written by a computer. An illiterate computer.

My next book will be the lowest rated book on my TBR, I'm not expecting much. :) But I promise the book after that is going to be one I'm looking forward to.
