I have finished

Furies of Calderon by Jim Butcher

I hope to finish one more book over the next two days but I will not have a lot of reading time between 22nd and 26th of December as I am going to enjoy Christmas with my whole family.

[Juliana]

Christmas with the whole family is usually fun. I hope you enjoy it Jane. :)

[Juliana]

I've finished a quick read: by Melissa Jagears.

[Jane]

Yes the whole family means we are going to be 17 people. And that is just my mother and my siblings with family. We get together like this at Christmas every second year.

Now I wonder, which one is your favorite until now? Why do you like it? Any recommendation?

That is a very difficult question! I have enjoyed most of the books I have read but I think my favorite would have to be Origin, I absolutely loved it.

[Jane]

I will be reading a lot next week as I need to read 6 books for a challenge if I want to complete it. But they will all be around 200-300 pages so not too long.

[Juliana]

Good work team!! We make a lot of points this week!

You'll have a full week Jane, good reading!

In everyday life in Serbia we follow the same calendar as everyone else.
It's just that Serbian Orthodox christian church never made the transition from Julian calendar to Gregorian calendar like catholic church... So, basically, all our religious holidays are two weeks later than yours. :)
