I have a bunch of books to look through before I pick the next one. I also can't find my Nook. I just bought a new Glowlight Plus, and it has disappeared. It is somewhere in the house, but I can't find it! :(

Doesn't that just burn you Ruth. Too bad nook's don't come with find me features like smart phones do :) Good Luck my friend!

With a little manipulation you can convert those files to something the Kindle can read.

Oooo Aren't you lucky Susan!!! :)

So its Thanksgiving so lets talk about your holiday reading. Does your reading habits change with the seasons? Do you love holiday tales whether reading to your children or for yourself.
Me I love Holiday tales, especially the feel good ones that leave me with that warm fuzzy feeling.
Plus I'll be renting a holiday movies every week from now until Christmas to enjoy with my peeps!
Happy Thanksgiving!!

Deb, just finished "Home for Christmas" that I won from your blog. It was a sweet little Christmas romance that got me more in the mood for the season.

I also love holiday movies! We try to add to our collection each year. Watching A Christmas Story, Christmas Vacation, and Christmas With the Kranks is a must for this time of year at our house!

No, not really. Most of my Christmas entertainment traditions center around music and movies. Same with Easter.

Thanks Kamas, I usually get out a few Christmas classics like A Christmas Carol to read.

[April]

Currently reading The Little Paris Bookshop by Nina George. I'm a third of the way through and really loving it.

I love A Christmas Carol. Perfect reading for this time of year. My girls and I have been reading every childrens Christmas themed book we can find. It's really gotten them excited for the holidays.

I am still waiting on my copy of Elf from the library. Can't wait to watch it.
Thanks for sharing Susan!

I have seen parts of Elf on TV, but never watched it all the way through. It's definitely on my list to watch.

The countdown until Christmas continues, two weeks from today.
Is the shopping done, the packages wrapped, the cookies made, the stockings hung. What's left to do on your to do list?
And what are you reading this holiday season?

I'm in the middle of my March reviews I'm hoping to turn them in early and get one more Christmas novel under my belt!

[Kamas]

My wife loves Elf (along with pretty much all Christmas movies), so it's one we own on DVD. A couple of years ago GooglePlay (back when it was still the Android Market) had Elf as a freebie one Christmas, so I have a digital copy of it as well. Personally, I don't care for it. I find Buddy extremely annoying.

Hey we're here for you! Reading or not! :)

Started reading "The Mental" by Melanie Dellinger, a local 14-year-old middle school student who has published her first book.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

Interesting so far, and very well-written.

[Ang from OZ]

With my eyes starting to feel better I hope to get back into some reading maybe tomorrow. I have 2 books by Thea Harrison in my pile, along with Nora Roberts The Witness, plus a few others. Not many days of Holiday's left, back to work Monday. Where did my two weeks go????? Hope my cranky boss is less cranky and mean in 2016!!

Great idea Susan
Happy New Year!!

[Debbie]

January 1st 2016 what will you be reading in the coming year? Do you have different reading goals than last year? Will you be keeping track like Susan? My reading goal for the new year is to widen my horizons and try books that I wouldn't have usually!
Happy New Year!

What's on your reading list for this weekend?

[[deleted user]]

In 2015, my goal was to get caught up on Michael Connelly's Bosch series and I did, so this year, I want to try to do the same thing for a couple of other series. I also want to read a variety---hopefully a couple of classics and non-fiction, as well as new fiction.

[Ruth]

My goal was to read an average of one book a week, and I did that, so successful! I was also going to make it the year of Margaret Atwood, but that did NOT happen. *sigh* I will attempt that again, to read at least six of her books, but I guess I need to start by just getting ONE read!

[Debbie]

Great job TarHeelGirl, good luck for 2016

don't be too hard on yourself Ruth, Me I'm a resolution breaker, so I just had to quit making them. Good luck!! to you

[Kamas]

Congrats, Ruth. I also had a similar goal for number of books. Sadly, I didn't come close, reading even fewer than the year before. I'm hoping this year I make my goal.

[Debbie]

Right now I'm oding on Claire Delacroix/Deborah Cooke. I'm listening to her Historical Romance with a touch of woo woo, The Red Rose Bride -


And Reading her new Just Released book two in her Champions of St. Euphemia series, The Crusader's Heart-

[Ang from OZ]

For 2016 I am looking forward to the next books in series by my fav authors like, Anne Bishop, Patricia Briggs, Nalini Singh and Deborah Blake. I'd like to get in at least one non fiction book, most likely "In the heart of the sea" and finally read "To Kill A Mockingbird" I didn't get to it last year like I had planned. Also to read a few books that are being made into movies.

Sounds like a great plan Ang!!

Finished "Rosemary: The Hidden Kennedy Daughter" by Kate Clifford Larson last night. Excellent, informative book that really stirs the emotions!

[Ang from OZ]

I'm going to start "The 5th Wave" on the weekend, it comes out as a movie this year, i just watched the movie trailer. Looks like it will be gòod!

[Kamas]

I'm reading The Forlorn by Dave Freer. It's a mix of Sci Fi and Fantasy, set on another world where humans are fighting a war to the death against an alien species. For a first book it's not bad, but I'm somewhat disappointed in it. I was expecting better.

[Debbie]

All of those choices sound excellent, I've read and loved The book about Rosemary Kennedy TarHeelGirl and you're right it was fabulous.

I just googled The 5th Wave Ang wow looks scary!

Hmm Kamas it does look interesting by first book do you mean this is the start of a series?

I'm reading my last book for pleasure The Invisible Girls: A Memoir before I get back to my reviewing. I am excited to be reviewing Harry Turtledove's upcoming April fantasy release The House of Daniel

Anything exciting planned for the weekend?
Have a Great one

[Ruth]

"Bury Your Dead" by Louise Penny (Inspector Gamache #7) and "Ready Player One". Both are fantastic!

[Ang from OZ]

Started reading The 5th wave today, good so far.

[Kamas]

Debbie wrote: "Hmm Kamas it does look interesting by first book do you mean this is the start of a series?"

No, I mean it's his first published book (at least that I know of). I think he had some previous short stories published.

[Debbie]

Its Friday what are you reading this weekend!

[Kamas]

I'm reading the last Peter Shandy novel my Charlotte MacLeod, Exit the Milkman

[Debbie]

Excellent choice Kamas, have a Great Weekend!!!

[Ang from OZ]

I just finished Cold Burn of Magic by Jennifer Estep, it's YA fiction, but i really enjoyed it, going to start book two in the series today, and also book two in the 5th wave series, it is called The Infinite Sea.

[April]

I'm reading Brava, Valentine by Adriana Trigiani and The Guest Room by Chris Bohjalian.

[[deleted user]]

I'm reading by Ransom Riggs. I am really enjoying this series! The books are super cool with all the photos and signatures on the cover beneath the book jacket. As much as I love my Nook, this series is more enjoyable as a "real" book. I so want to finish it this weekend, but unfortunately I have to work again tomorrow.
