Yay - looks like we're doing well on the Christmas goals!

Favourite book of the tournament has probably been the 1st one I read which was Into the Darkest Corner which I'd recommend - I couldn't put it down.

Doesn't feel like it's been a month already

[Sophie, The other one]

Haven't read any of those, will have to give them a look.

Tea- can see what you mean about American Gods. Is taking me a while to get into

I found it in a couple of my books, just have to see if I can use them for other challenges.

[Venecia]

Is someone reading the Santa goal for the Christmas challenge?

[Sophie, The other one]

I'm not...

That sounds like my kind of book. I read a description somewhere that was VERY similar (about the friends not believing) but I love those kinds of books. Gonna look for it. :)

I read the first of the Cormoran Strike, and it was just ok for me. I couldn't get through the 2nd one, ended up giving up on it about 10% in.

I haven't read any of the Grisha books yet, but they are on my "I'll get to it at some point" TBR. :)

[Anita Reads]

Hey, I'd like to say sorry for having been really inactive in here for the past week. I have only finished 1 book, but I've kind of gotten in to a slump. That happened last year in December as well.

Hopefully I'll get some reading done anyhow.

[Stacie]

Sometimes it won't total for me (the pages). Sometimes it just shuts down completely on me. I've had many issues with it this time and it's so frustrating!

[Tina]

Does any of you use Kindle? In that case, do you know how many devices you can connect to one account?
I have a Kindle and was thinking of giving my sister some Kindle books for Christmas. She hasn't used the Kindle yet, so it will be a new experience for her and I'll borrow her my device. But if she likes it, then maybe she will want a Kindle of her own and then we can share my account. Will that work?

[Nicole B]

I think you can link an account to 3 kindles, or rather when i was using my mum's account it was 2 on one so 3 sounds about right

You can have up to 6 devices I believe.

[Rebecca]

There's no limit on how many devices can use the account... However a book can only be downloaded to a max of 6 devices. So basically 6 kindles (or phones or tablets) can be used if you want to access all the books in the account.
