Oh wow it's been forever since I've been here.
So the weather in the US is finally turning towards fall, Kamas has already had snow
This is the perfect time for me to start reading Christmas stories
Do any of you change your reading habits with the seasons?
If you're a fast reader I have a blogger friend who has a Frater-Fest Read a Thon going on. Here are the details -https://caffeinatedbookreviewer.com/2...

No they don't really change by season for me either. Definitely mood motivated for me as well. I'm finally going to try and read "The Book Thief" by Markus whats his name.... I know it starts with a Z. It's 5.30am on Monday morning I can't do any better than that lol.

Mood sets me too. In the summer I do like lighter reading only because I do a lot of reading while camping. And you don't want a heavy read while you are trying to rush for dinner at the same time.

Sue, we don't really celebrate Halloween in Australia. Some people do it, but it isn't a big thing over here like it is for you guys.
I started reading Rutger Hauer's autobiography All Those Moments: Stories of Heroes, Villains, Replicants, and Blade Runners. My musical choice for this read has been Vangelis' soundtrack to Blade Runner.
I can't listen to music and read at the same time! I always stop reading and start to sing a long to music instead.
I have 3 books that I started thru out the year. I am going to finish them so I can start the new year fresh.

Starting in grade school I would study while listening to my parent's old 8-tracks. By the time I got to college it was CDs.
When I read at work I can't always listen to music. But when I got my new smart phone I loaded most of my music on it and bought some good ear buds (which I promptly lost and replaced with cheap Wal-mart ones) so when I'm waiting around for my daughter or wife I can sit there and listen to music and read.
One of the biggest connections between books and music for me is Tad Williams' The Dragonbone Chair and the early Joe Satriani albums like Surfing With the Alien and Flying In a Blue Dream. There are just so many songs on those two albums that set the perfect tone for the various scenes.
Anyone started reading and Christmas Tales yet.
Are there books you re-read for the holidays?
I read a couple and they will probably be a part of the big December bash I mentioned in off topic chat
Both were really good but this one was AMAZING, Sarah Morgan has gotten better and better. She started writing for the Harlequin series lines, then went to main stream romance and is now writing women's fiction. The Christmas Sisters was a FAB read and if I know her she will probably offer it as a giveaway and since she's in Merry olde England I'm almost sure it will be international
The other one was by another fab author who writes both mainstream and for the HQN Special Edition line
RaeAnne Thayne's Season of Wonder

I don't really have any holiday reads that I go back to. There are some movies that I watch every year though.I finished Rutger Hauer's autobiography. It wasn't bad. He's had an interesting set of adventures.
I've now started reading another Kramer & Zondi novel, Snake.
I just finished the Macmillan audio edition of Andrew Gross's latest historical novel, Button Man
it was fabulous. For those who don't know Andrew he started out coauthoring with Patterson before going solo. He started out writing contemporary thrillers but then switched to historical.
I also read a fabulous hard sci-fi by fave J Barton Mitchell called The Razor
that comes out one week from today.

Hi Scott thanks for sharing. Wow The Haunting of Hill House is quite the creepy blast from the past!
