I'm in. I'd like some cuddle time with my husband so I think I'll read a romance novel!I picked my book. It's
just started it and it seems very good so far.I just finished my book. Very good, written in a very different style, it's all e-mails. I really enjoyed it!

A hot guy would be nice or a trip to Australia. Hmmm let's see what I can come up with.
I'm in. A hot guy with tattoos or a trip to Australia ... yeah that sounds good :)

Foreman Paris ~ All I Want For Christmas...
Duration: 12/1/2013 - 12/31/2013
This month I’m going to challenge you to read books that contain something you want for Christmas. The book could have an iPod you want or a washer/dryer (I think that’s what David Gandy said he wanted for Christmas) or if you’re like me, your list might be just a bunch of books with hot guys in them (or tattoos since I want another one even though I got 3 this year).
Read 1 book or read 10, the amount is up to you. There are no levels and you don’t have to restrict yourselves to items. Want a trip to Ireland for Christmas? Read a book that’s set there. Want world peace for Christmas? Read a book that portrays that. Have fun, be creative and enjoy what you read!

2. Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything by Steven D. Levitt - ***** - 12/11/2013 - Even more food!
