Christmas cards are still coming in #LSMC. Thanks, Cuilin and Ashley @Cuilin @Skygoddess1

I don't know too many kids who do not do this: walk in their mothers' or father's shoes. This girl, though, decided to hide the shoes her mother's uses to go to work because she is left behind at Nana, and she wants to be home with her mom. #ISpyBingoNov @TheAromaofBooks

Winter Winderland was sung first by Frank Sinatra. Love this version. #DashingThruDecember XMas Romance

I picked this book because of the bingo spots I needed for #ISpyBingoDec @TheAromaofBooks. A collection of 4 novellas. Of course, Kelly Armstrong got my attention. I bailed the second novella by Jeffe Kennedy, too confused to continue, but the 3rd by Melissa Mark I loved. The first book finished for #Welcome2026Readathon

#DashingThruDec Decorations what better song then Deck The Halls for this prompt. Written by the Scottish musician Thomas Oliphant in 1862. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I did it! Reached my Goodreads goal this year. @StayCurious

#InDeathLongReadathon @StayCurious Thanks for being my co-host..
This is book 17.5 book in the series containing 2 books. It was different. A case that was never solved ends up in Eve Dallas lap years later. We see characters grow as well both in the 1st and 2nd half of the book. I enjoyed this month's book in the series very much. #Read2025 @DieAReader

I needed a bingo spot for #ISpyBingoNov, and the cover is so pretty, but it's a graphic novel. I hate graphic novels. they're hard to read, I still can't even tell you what happened. Give me words to read. Thank goodness it's short cause I would have bailed. @TheAromaofBooks #Read2025 @DieAReader

This was such a good read for this season. I had to finish this. Thanks to @StayCurious for hosting #LittensLoveRomance #BuddyRead
I really enjoyed this one. #Read2025 @DieAReader

#DashingThruDecember PictureBook This song came out in 1964 by The Kinks @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Lovely song. #DashingThruDecember Remembering @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I'm not a partying person on New Years anymore as I'm too old for that. I do love to read, though, to bring in the New Year. What say you to a low key #Welcome2026Readathon Dec 30 to Jan 2. A good time to finish a book or maybe start one. Join and Tag me @Liseworks @LitsyEvents

#5JoysFriday @DebinHawaii The days are starting to blur because of holidays .
1. Daughter and Grandson visit for a few days
2. Made brunch for daughter and boyfriend yesterday
3. Taught my grandson to "Go fish"
4. Babysitting grandpup and grandkitty for a week
5. The most beautiful sunrise this morning

My favorite Christmas story/book is How the Grinch Stole Christmas ? ? and the song "You're A Mean One Mr Grinch." The original one sang in the cartoon. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Grandma does it again. She gives a candy cane to her granddaughter, and she gets all sticky. Then the kitty gets all sticky. This book rhymes and gets you laughing with sticky fun. #ISpyBingoDec @TheAromaofBooks

One of my favorite Christmas songs 🎵 is Rudolph, the Red Nosed Reindeer. Just because he overcame bullying. And since I was bullied in grades 7 to 9, I could relate, and he gave me courage. #DashingTruDecember Red
@Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I went to the post office for mail before they closed for the holidays and found a Christmas card. Thanks, Stacy, 😊 you know me well. Love Snoopy. @Sleepswithbooks

I love this series. This one is about the sister of the main character, so it's from her perspective, and we see her grow into her own. It's a quick read as it's a novella and book 4.5. One bingo spot #ISpyBingoDec @TheAromaofBooks #Read2025 @DieAReader

#DashingThruDecember Cookies 🍪 I have to go with C is for cookie by The Cookie Monster @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Zack 's key chain has an alligator that grows when it gets wet. So, when snow touches it, the alligator grows and suddenly has fun in the snow by sliding on a snow hill. #ISpyBingoDec with 2 spots @TheAromaofBooks

@Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

The only song I could find about craft or crafting is for kids. #DashingThruDecember @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I read this book because I needed a bingo spot for #ISpyBingoNov, and I really enjoyed it. It was tense, intense, sad, sizzling, and I was rooting for them. @TheAromaofBooks I really like how #ISpyBingo makes me read books I would usually skip. #Read2025 @DieAReader
This book is not in Litsy database

I have to go with the 1942 released song by Bing Crosby with White Christmas #DashingThruDecember White Christmas @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I listened to this while walking on my treadmill, and while doing some cross stitch. My favorite character in this book has got to be Joyce. I think I relate to these characters, being they are almost my age. I laughed out loud at some places. The MC was awesome.

This was funny to me because your temp is -1 °celcius and right now at my house, it's -13° C Ha! And so It may be cold outside, but I'm definitely staying indoors. I made some French Canadian meat pies for Christmas with a mix of moose🫎 , beef🐂, and porc🐖 meat. I think I'm going to spend the rest of my day reading for #CandyLandReadathon

A wedding planner falls and hits her head, and the first man she sees she declares he's her fiancé. It was a sweet book and a page turner for me, actually. First book read for #TheCandyCaneReadathon Three bingo spots for #ISpyBingoDec @TheAromaofBooks #Read2025 @DieAReader

This is a worm fuzzy Christmas Song by Colin & Caroline #DashingThruDecember @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I needed one spot for #ISpyBingoOct @TheAromaofBooks I settled on Darkly Dreaming Dexter I watched this on the TV and loved it, so I was iffy on the book but I liked it and probably will continue with the series.
