Can you believe that 2025 is just around the corner?? In preparing, Andrew and I want to let you know that we are again hosting the #SeriesLove2025 reading challenge.

This challenge is all about reading books in a series. A series can be 2 or 22 books. I personally, love reading series and have multiple series going at once. The idea of this challenge is to encourage you to finish, or start, a series. To participate, when post a review, blurb,..

#ReadAway2024 @DieAReader @Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES

I logged another 5 hours of reading time yesterday. I didn't finish or start anything new. Just continued on with those I have started.

❤️📖❤️📚❤️

#WondrousWednesday @Eggs

📘 In spring and fall my favorite place to read is in my hammock on the back deck. In summer it is on my boat dock. In winter, I read in the sunsunroof.
📘 Nothing I can think of. 🤔

#WeirdWordWednesday @CBee

I ran across this new to me word last week. I'm trying to jot words down as I stumble upon them. Not sure I would call this one weird but I found it interesting and thought you might too.

A toast to weird, wonderful and interesting words!!! 🍾🍾🍾
Happy Wednesday!

#WhatsNewWednesday @Read4life @TieDyeDude @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I started this week working on developing a spreadsheet for tracking the book I read in 2025. It will also track challenges, book clubs, and time spent reading among other things. I still have my reading journal for 2025 I made. I plan to do both next year and see what works best for me.

#BDB #BDBBuddyRead #BDBBookClub

A quick reminder, next up is book 6.5 in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series. It is a novella, which is nice since December is so busy for most.

Yesterday I finished The Mafia Prince's Baby and started The Sugar Queen for the #AuthorAMonth challenge. @Soubhiville

Currently sitting at 265 books read for the year. Still want to make it to 300. Would also like to reach 2,500 hours. That is a new goal for me. I want to end the year on a bang. 🤞

Happy Tuesday! Here are today's questions. Everyone is welcome to play along. I will tag a few Littens to get things going.

My answers:
📘 I like to plan. However, mostly just the big stuff. Too much planning leads to unnecessary stress.
📘 Tagged. Lots of unplanned stuff in this story, i.e. love, death, pregnancy, betrayal, etc. It was a really good story and is part of a series but can be read as a stand-alone.

Book two of the Twisted series was just as good as the first, maybe even a bit better. It is a forbidden romance with all the feels. Loved these characters, especially Rhys, and the story really worked. 4.5 ⭐️ I already have the third book on hold. Can't wait!!

#LitsyLoveReads @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Read4life @TieDyeDude

I tried on multiple occasions to read this one. I made it to 25% and couldn't make myself finish. Never got into the story and didn't care about the characters. This is a DNF. #HailTheBail

Note: This is set in Cape Cod so I intended this to fulfill the #TwinPeaks prompt for this month (set in an iconic location). Hope to find another book to replace it. @Yuki_Onna

Another new series I started and have fallen in love with. An enemies to lovers story with a little twist towards the end. The plot was good. However, it was the characters I fell for. Will definitely read the rest of the series. 4⭐️

#ReadAwsy2024 @DieAReader @Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES

Here is what I have planned for next week. Several to finish and need to start Ringworld for #ClassicLSFBC

#SundayFunday @BookmarkTavern

I love them equally. Give me both, as long as the characters and story are good.

#WeeklyFavorites @Read4life

My favorite books for the second week of November is Twisted Love. It is the first book in the Twisted series. I am currently working on book two. Love finding new series and all the books are at my local library.

Taking a day off from riding. I have tickets to see Kansas in Spartanburg, which is a 1.5 hour drive for us. The hubby and I plan to make a day of it. We'll head out after lunch and wonder around downtown. Have an early dinner before the concert. Looking forward to it. 💜🎶💜

I finished book 4 yesterday for this readathon. I also started two other books. I think I need to concentrate on the one I have started!

I read Rhythm, Chord and Malykhin yesterday. I also started Twisted Love. Currently stand at 261 books for the year.

💜📖💜📚💜

#36x36Readathon @MatchlessMarie

Yesterday I read Rhythm, Chord and Malykhin. I had a library loan come through, so started Twisted Love. I also have an ARC I need to read by the 18th so I may start that today too. Too many books not enough time.

I read for 9.25 hours yesterday. That brings me to 39 hours total for this readathon and 3 books read. Goal achieved!
