Merry Christmas

To all of you who celebrate Christmas, I want to wish you a Very Merry Christmas!

I know many people have already signed off for the weekend and won’t see this, but if it is after Christmas, I hope you had a wonderful holiday.

Happy Cinco de Mayo 💃🪅🇲🇽

May 5th is Cinco de Mayo. It commemorates the Battle of Puebla in 1862. I didn’t really know a lot about how this celebration came to be, just that we ate Mexican food. Well, head over to Jill Dennison’s blog and read about the history and celebrations. https://jilldennison.com/2022/05/05/el-cinco-de-mayo/

Three Holiday Cozy Mysteries: Slashing Through the Snow, Death by Hot Apple Cider and Lowcountry Boughs of Holly #BookReview #Audiobook #20booksforChristmas #HoHoHoRat2021

Holiday reading is in full swing and I have read these three cozy mysteries over the last few weeks. One is Thanksgiving (Autumn) and the other two are set at Christmas time. I enjoyed them all to varying degrees. They are all in series that I enjoy and recommend.

Happy Thanksgiving

To everyone who celebrate today, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

HAPPY HALLOWE’EN

Happy Hallowe’en Everyone!

It’s Beginning to Feel a Lot Like Christmas – 3 #BookReviews of #Audiobooks: Meet Me in London, Mistletoe Season, Sleigh Bells Ring @HarperAudio @michelle_major1 @ToffTalks

I am well into reading Christmas stories as well as reading books for my 20 Books for Christmas Challenge. Each of the books here was available in both ebook and audiobook. I did a read/listen and enjoyed them all in both formats. The audiobooks were all well done and added to my enjoyment of the stories. All were provided to me by the publishers upon request. The rating and opinions shared are my own.

Three Holiday Romances: Keep Me Warm at Christmas, The Matzah Ball & A Little Christmas Spirit @harperaudio @HarlequinBooks #MIRA #BookReview #Audiobook

I am getting into the holiday spirit and Christmas magic, holiday romance, and new beginnings are all things I love about these stories. I had both ebooks and audiobooks for all three of these stories and did a read/listen (more listen than read to be honest) with each of them. The pubishers generously provided me with copies of these books upon request. The ratings and opinions shared are my own.

Christmas in July: A Vineyard Christmas, An Amish Christmas Wedding, Lock Stock & Jingle Bells and Falling For Christmas #BookReview #AudiobookReview #ChristmasinJuly

These are my final reviews for Christmas in July. I actually finished Falling For Christmas today, so it is not on my wrap up post. All of these books were received from the publisher upon my request. The rating and opinions shared are my own.

Happy Father’s Day

Happy Father’s Day to all who are or have been a father or father figure to someone they love. As I said on Mother’s Day, you deserve to be celebrated all year long, but enjoy your day today.
