Crosshairs is awesome! You will love it. And I'm with you on fall/winter reading here in northern Colorado!

I'll usually keep Christmas or winter theme stories for the fall and winter (here in Canada it's a looooong season) so that I can enjoy the short summer :)

Busy month with life and mom duties this month so I ended up only reading 5 out of 10 books planned, with one extra I didn't plan for that I ended up really enjoying. It was my first Colleen Coble book, . I really liked that it was a mystery but wasn't gruesome or filled with a lot of evil. I really enjoyed the characters.

I finished Tracie Petersons Heart of the Frontier Series and just adored all three of those books. I want to read more from her for sure.

I also started Terri Blackstocks Restoration Series and really loved the first book . It's about a power outage that puts a family in crisis and and makes them decide if they're going to hoard resources or seek God and His ways and give and love in the time of lack. I just finished it last night and am very much looking forward to the second book.

Did anyone read holiday books that were 4 or 5 stars? I'd like to read a few holiday books in November.

[Katrina]

In October I finished 11 books. I think 9 of them were in my original plan of 24 books. I didn't have as much time as I thought and 24 was much too ambitious. I will try to get 15 or 16 next month.
