Ho-Ho-Ho Read-a-thon

HoHoHo Holiday Read-a-Thon

The digs on the read-a-thon from one of the blogs hosting it:



Jennifer @ Bawdy Book Blog and I[Kimberly] adore holiday themed books. Whether it’s the covers, or the tales of good tidings they put us in the holiday spirit. We wanted to share that with you. So grab your pile of holiday themed books and sign-up to join us November 7th to 11th for a holiday themed read-a-thon, filled with challenges, good cheer and maybe some Figgy pudding! The challenges will be festive and give you a chance to win some holiday cheer for yourself! Join for one day, just the weekend or the entire event. Read as many holiday related books from your YA, NA and Adult collections as you can. Participating in challenges, spreading the news, following hosts and reading will all earn you entries for the grand prize- a twenty dollar gift-card from B&N or Amazon to fill your stocking with!



I'll read at least 2(I hope it's more tough) books from this list and more from my TBR that aren't holiday themed:


Marry Christmas (Christmas, #1) by Jane Goodger

Review: Beauty and the Beast by Hannah Howell

Title: Beauty and the Beast


Author: Hannah Howell


Published: 1st April 2007



On the eve of her wedding to the heir of Saitum Manor, the stunningly beautiful Gytha is shocked to learn that her betrothed, a man she barely knew, is dead. Now, she must marry the new heir, Thayer Saiturn, a battle-hardened knight known as the Red Devil...


With a face scarred in battle and a heart broken in love, Thayer has no interest in marriage. But not even the Red Devil can break the promise his foster-father made years ago and soon finds himself married to a woman whose exquisite beauty and sweet innocence intrigue him. But can his new bride look beyond his scars to find a hidden passion and undying love locked deep inside him?
