My December Reading Plans

Image
  BLOGMAS STARTS TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!  Here is a list of the books I am hoping to read for the month of December!  I will be reading "Fire Keeper's Daughter" by Angeline Boulley with The Book Girls' Guide  This book is one of their picks for the state of Michigan, where I reside.  Also, I already have this book on my Kindle, so win-win!  As for Christmas reads, I plan to start "A Cheyenne Christmas Homecoming" by Caroline Lee/Josephine West. I bought it for Kindle SEVEN years ago!  "Midnight at the Christmas Bookshop" by Jenny Colgan. This one is borrowed from the library.  And if time permits, I'll be reading Elin Hilderbrand's "Winter in Paradise" .  What will you be reading in December?? 

Blogmas 2023 Starts This Friday!

I've never been very good at being consistent with my blog. But I figure if I can write 50,000 words and win Nanowrimo, I can post on my blog for all 31 days in December!  A few of the topics I plan to cover next month:  I hope that you will join me for a festive and fun December here at Well-Versed Women!  If you want to know more about Blogmas, check out  this article from This Splendid Shambles
