Anissa’s comments from the 2025 Reading Challenge group.

Thank you so much to my Secret Santa, Deborah. I’m so excited to read my Kindle books of Angelfall, Once Upon a Wardrobe, and Uprooted. My TBR list is rather extensive (LOL!) so I am always amazed how my Secret Santas can make a choice.

I would like to read Eragon in January with D.L. and Dubhease please.
