Two books are read and reviewed. So far. I can´t do the Instagram challenge this year, so only a link to my review. Happy reading and thank you for hosting!
Kimberly
Yay, glad you’ve got two down. Did you try the other challenges? Find them in the sidebar under events.
Vi @Inkvotary
I am glad too smile* I do the audio challenge, too. Thank you for asking. It was fun to read some Christmas novels. Guess, without the HoHoHo I wouldn´t have read them. Too many other things in mind *sigh*

Yay! I’m so glad its RAT time. I’ve been stocking up my holiday and winter books just for these next two weeks. Can’t wait to do the elf games and challenges, too. Thanks for hosting Kimberly.
Oooh, I read A Very Merry Bromance and I’ve got A Wish for Winter, too.
As to random acts of kindness, today was trash pick up day and there is a high wind. Some of my neighbors are at work and their empty trash barrels were blowing about so I stopped on my walk to get three cans out of the street and up sheltered by their homes and another house, I cleaned up garbage from their yard, the walk, and street where one of their bags had come open.
Kimberly
That was nice of you, Sophia. Yeah, I have been looking forward to diving into these books.
