Everything was perfect!! This is so much fun!

I've been working toward decluttering all year, and haven't made as much progress as I'd like to. I try to balance between youtube and audio books, but sometimes I get hyper-focused and end up just going with my mood. Usually, I'm not a mood reader though. Tangled Web wasn't quite as good as I remembered. I do enjoy all the quirky characters though.

I'm excited for the PJ party!

@lizziefayelovesbooks me too. Will be fun

It's so cute!

I go in fits and spurts. I really want to make more progress in 2025 than I did in 2024. Moving is a great time to declutter. I've heard experts say that if you pretend like you are moving, you can make good progress in decluttering.

Everything was just perfect! That illustration book is awesome! It's such a privilege to be doing this with y'all!

This is such a fun thing to do. I had a lot of fun gathering all the things I sent to them too.

Thank you so much Debbi! Your support and encouragement has always meant so much! Merry Christmas to you and your family!

That's a great idea! I will probably have to scale back what I send next year, but I found so many great things, that I just couldn't resist sending them.

I know, it is beautiful! The illustrations are so intricate.

Thanks Donna! Yes, everything they sent was just perfect! I'm looking forward to the rest of the month.

Yes, it's so neat! I had not ever seen it before! I'm looking forward to reading it.

So sorry that I forgot to put it in the description. I will do that now.

Thanks Glenda! It has been so much fun and I'm looking forward to the rest of the month.

Yes! It's lots of fun! Thank you so much for watching!

Those books look great! You'll have to tell me about them and if you've read them or not.

So many wonderful new treasures! 📚

Oh that's good to know. We have some Catherine Coulter books at the store where I work. I've been wanting to try Michael Connelly too. Have either of y'all read him?

@lizziefayelovesbooks yes, but it has been a long time ago and can't remember the titles. They were not favorite ones and we haven't kept up with them. Sorry we aren't more helpful. 😕

Thanks for watching Kami!

Hello and welcome! I've been a Star Wars fan since the original movie in 1977, but I hadn't read any Star Wars books til this year. I have a couple of videos from May and this summer where I talk about reading Star Wars for the first time. What are some of your favorite Star Wars books?

LOL! Yes it does!! Thanks so much for watching!

@@MoiraOReilly Yes, we are having a ball! Thanks for watching Moira!

@@lorenreads Thank you so much for watching. We are having a lot of fun doing it!

Thank you Sonia! It's just not my norm, but I'm happy about what I did. Change is good, right!?!

Yes, the cruise ship mysteries are making me want to go on a cruise again. There is a Big Red Boat reunion cruise in August, so we have talked about going. It would celebrate Katie's graduation too.

Thanks! Not my norm, but I'm happy about what I did anyway! It's good to mix things up sometimes.

Yes, you are right! Quality over quantity right!?! Although I'm not so sure that was true of my month either. LOL!

Love the "power" quote too! I would love to buddy read a book with you! In fact, I know just the one. Have you ever read any Terri Blackstock? She writes Christian suspense/thrillers and I've been hearing great things about her Restoration series. It's kind of a dystopian series where all the power goes out all over the world I think. In fact my sister sent me the whole series for my birthday. I've seen them on audio to, maybe on Hoopla, but I don't know what audio platforms you have where you are. Does that sound like something you would read? If not, look at my November TBR video. I showed about 25 Christian fiction books that I was going to listen to on audio in November and December and I didn't get to any of them yet. So we could read any of those if you want. Absolutely you should read a few of the Garden Girls books before you read Cruise Ship number 6. The Garden Girls are a big part of "Cruise Control." I wouldn't have appreciated the book nearly as much if I hadn't been familiar with the characters and their history. I appreciate you taking the time to write a wonderful comment. Message me on Discord about a buddy read.

@@lizziefayelovesbooks I have responded via Discord! Thank you Elizabeth :)

Absolutely! I might let you read it before I do, if it looks like it will take me awhile to get to it.

That was such a fun thing to have happen! Since I already had that Star Wars book, I was tickled over the other one. It will give me a book for the GarbAugust Readathon that I have not ever participated in. Which Star Wars books have you read? There are so many now, that I hardly knew where to start. So I just started at the beginning with my oldest ones. I may not read them all in publication order, but that just seemed like a good starting place. I've heard great things about the ones by Timothy Zahn and those are what I will read next after I finish what I'm reading now. Thanks for watching!

Right! I am tickled over the Barbarian book. Now I can participate in GarbAugust!

It was a great birthday and thanks for your part in it! I love my gifts!

Thanks for watching Kami!!

You are the best!!

It was my best birthday yet, without a doubt! Thank you so much for your part in it! I love the gifts!

Happy birthday to you too Saundra! My sister is also 70. I've always heard that you are only as old as you feel!

Wonderful! I hope we will be friends! Thanks so much for stopping by and watching. Who are some of your favorite authors?

Thank you Ann! It was a wonderful birthday! I enjoyed hearing about your favorite Christmas books on Tammy's channel. I hope you will share more. I know we have some similar reading tastes.

Thanks Tammy, it's been really fun prepping for it!

Thank you Fiona! I was definitely my best birthday yet!

@lizziefayelovesbooks I hope this year carries that feeling throughout

Thanks Fiona! The Susan Branch books are so pretty. I'm really looking forward to reading some.

@@lizziefayelovesbooks I have also added some Susan Branch books to my wishlist.

I hadn't heard of it. It sounds really good!

Thanks so much Tiffany! You are too sweet! I'm so happy to have you in my life!

Hi Debbi! We are having a lot of fun with this! So glad you are enjoying it too.

@@lizziefayelovesbooks You have the sweetest besties.

Thank you so much Shaina!
