So behind.. lol.. what else is new!!

I said I would monthly list what I have read.. and where the books are up for sale.. 99% of my books are on TraderKat or Listia.. as selling them on eBay isnt worth it anymore.. as least I can get points for them to use for other items.. 

You can also find me on Goodreads.. https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/19799270

Mini Christmas Crochet by Val Pierce

I got this book out of the library so I can copy the patterns. I have to say I copied alot of them.. 

Take Up Crochet by Sue Whiting

I took this out of the library to look thru for patterns.. to be honest.. I didnt find much because this ended up a beginners book.

Crochet Me by Kim Piper Werker

This book was filled with patterns for clothing, except all of them werent my size.. I probably would have copied more if they were..

My Book Update - End of Year and December List

Sad to say it.. I only read 40 books out of the 50 I planned on.. I decided to try for the 50 again this year and hopefully I will read it.. I havent done very well the last 2 years.. If you are a member of Goodreads..friend me..

For December I read and finished:

Wolfskin (Saga of the Light Isles #1) by Juliet Marillier Of all the books I read this month.. this was the one I liked the best.. I plan on getting book 2.. 

Ancients by R. Karl Largent This book was quite good, but I wasnt fond of the ending.. it would have been fine if it was part of a series.. but it doesnt look like it was.. 

In a Killer's Sights (Smoky Mountain Secrets #1) by Sandra Robbins This was a suspense romance.. and it was actually quite good.. 

An Accidental Family by Darlene Graham This was a romance.. I had a few of them to read, since most of them are short and sweet.. I finished that one.. 

Books I read in November

I did some reading in November.. not as much as I normally did.. but definitely more than I did last month.

Books I read in August

 I am back to reading alot again.. I try to read every night.. at least for an hour per night.. 

First book I read was V.. by A.C. Crispin.. I saw the TV series many years ago.. and found the book, so read that.. I still have more of the series. hopefully will be finding them too.. this book is up on TraderKat if you are interested in getting it.. 

Then I took out an old favorite of mine, Danielle Steel. Special Delivery
by Danielle Steel I read that and also put it up on TraderKat.. already gone to its new home.

Then I found a book that someone here was giving away.. so took to read. The Reckoning by John Grisham.  Story was quite interesting.. though it was weird how the author broke it down.. The book was in rough shape.. so not sure if I will offer it up on TraderKat or Listia.. 

I ended the month, finishing this book literally as August ended.. I realized after I started it.. I read the books out of order.. I have the first book too.. if I can find where I put it... it is also not up.. she is one of my favorite authors..
