A Christmas Journey (Christmas Stories #1)

Title:A Christmas Journey (Christmas Stories #1)
Author:
My Area of Interest:Reading for the Christmas Spirit Read-a-thon
Castaway -I hated this book, I didn't make it 40 pages in.  I just couldn't.  I'm not fond of historical books for one, and the author introduced too many people in the first 10 pages that I just kept getting confused.  Just really couldn't get into this one or make myself finish it.

84 - Christmas Carol Murder

Title:Christmas Carol Murder
Author: Leslie Meier
My Area of Interest:This was one of the new ones in the library that had yet to be shelved.  When I snatched the last book I read, this was right behind it, so I snaged it to.
Finished 11/24/13 -This was a really good, fast read and I didn't figure out who did it before the main character did.  I did think it was cute that in the story the characters put on the play a Christmas Carol, and the storyline matched up quite a bit with what was going on in the story.  This is my 2nd book I have read for the Christmas Spirit Read-a-thon.

Title: The Case of the Gypsy Good-bye
Author: Nancy Springer
My Area of Interest: Last book in a series I have fallen in love with.
Finished 02/18/13 - I have really enjoyed this series, enough so that I checked out two of the other series by this author.  I really hated to see this series end, but it was a good ending non the less.   The ending is a bit open, and does leave you to wonder a bit, but more for the sake of wanting to read more.

Title: The Case of the Left-Handed Lady
Author: Nancy Springer
My Area of Interest: Series my sister turned me on to... and loving it.
Finished 02/13/13 - I can't read these fast enough.  I got them for the Paris library, and only have 4 more in my stack to read, I hope there is more to the series than just 6 books.

Finished 02/12/13 - I see why my sister sugested these books.  I have fell in love with them.  They are awsome.  J wouldn't read them, then again she only read page one.  I think once I tell her how the book went, she will want to read them.  I loved all the clues and puzzles, and have already started book two.

8 - Christina's Ghost

Title: Christina's Ghost
Author: Betty Ren Wright
My Area of Interest: I found this book at a second hand store and bought it for my daughter.  I read this when I was her age and thought she would like it.
Finished 02/08/13- I didn't remember much about the book, so it was pretty much like reading it for the first time.  It was rather odd that in the very begining of the book Chritina's grandmother has a gallbalder attach and has to have it removed, then stay in the hospital, and here I am recovering from having my gallblader removed.

101 - Visions of Sugar Plums: A Stephanie Plum Holiday Novel


Title: Visions of Sugar Plums: A Stephanie Plum Holiday Novel
Author: Janet Evanovich
My Area of Interest: LOVE this series!!!
Finished 08/08/08 - This was so cute! I had yet to read 8, but finished 7, so it didn't "give away" much of anything. Only a few piddly little things, such as the sister's boyfriend.. so I didn't miss anything. I'm still reading 8, it just hasn't come back from the library yet. This one read really fast, and it was so cute!!! I LOVED it when Gradma's teeth were painted, and she smiled and showed them off. I was laughing out loud.
