I've been gone a while. I started reading fanfiction to escape and I got sucked in an abyss.

I have no idea if someone else is hosting similar challenges. I just grabbed some of what I have hosted before.

Here's to a happy year of great reading
Jan2023: Not much has changed. Writing a fanfiction now O_o as well as reading but I bought 7 new books in December and hope to get those read soon. Crossing fingers about adding challenges (late!)

Bout of Books Wrap-up




Gasp, it's over?

2. Under a Vampire Moon for Vampire and Immortal
3. Love Bites for Vampire and Immortal (finishes the vamp section of Immortal) and ebook
4. When You Call My Name for ebook
5. Academic Pursuits for ebook (and finishes the challenge)

Just for Kicks:
Kim Dare has a series (Pushing the Envelope) of erotic short stories (m/m and BDSM)
1. For the Attention Of
2. RSVP
3. Written Request
4. Orders Enclosed
5. Cordially Invited
6. For His Eyes Only

Noah by Jacquelyn Frank
Seduced by the Wolf by Terry Spear
Devil's Food Cake Murder by Joanne Fluke


as for the rest,

Goal post? check
Twitter updates? some
Twitter chats? no
Two giveaways? check
Six Challenges? um, one late. one yes. four fail, hangs head in shame.
Check in with others? not enough



Watched a movie (Moneyball) and most of another (Die Hard 4). Checked off a couple of things on my To-Do list but not enough. Went out to dinner, "babysat" my MIL (hip replacement surgery), spent a morning at RenFaire!



Do it again? You bet! I'll want more specific goals, do more challenges, visit, visit, visit!
