Michelle at Seasons of Reading is once again sponsoring her Christmas Spirit Reading Challenge.
In short, the challenge runs from November 22, 2021 through January 6,
2022. The books read must be Christmassy in nature--novels, short story
collections, books of poems, etc.
Three ways to participate:
1. Challenge: Pick a level
~Candy Cane: read 1 book
~Mistletoe: read 2-4 books
~Christmas Tree: read 5-6 books (this is the fanatic level...LOL!)

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.
If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
