      Merry Christmas to YOU! Yes, I received several gifts this past month or so! I appreciate it so much and it's always fun to discover something new. My book is supposed down at the mailbox in our common area, so when I walk Raina later, I'll pick it up. I'm on a little delay today because - 1.) It's Christmas 2.) It's only 20 degrees! Yikes! During the day, it will generally warm up to the 40's or above, but the mornings are FRIGID!

      @BeyondBooks-wt5il 2 дня назад

      Very true! They know there may be pages in the book that have sexual content and that's good enough to get them the attention they need to ban it. I find it very interesting that many of the banned books are powerful stories written by female or LGBTQ+ authors who also happen to be black or brown.

    Hi, Reney - nice to "meet" you! I love Steinbeck but I haven't read the two shorter ones you have there yet. SO many books waiting on my shelves to be read!! Haven't heard of Walking Home, but I like books about wilderness. My husband and I both enjoy Grisham, too :) I'm sure I read The Exchange WAY back in the day! The Stand is outstanding, though some people find that uncut version too long (that's the same one we have). You might try the shorter (relatively speaking!) edited version. I don't read a whole lot of romance either. I like road trip novels, too! Ooh, I've been meaning to read The Nickel Boys are ages - I've heard it's difficult but worth it. This was a fun tag. It sounds like we have similar reading tastes!

    I used to love Black Friday shopping, but it seems like it's gotten kind of boring in the last few years. I loved getting the paper on Thanksgiving Day and going through all the ads and planning out where I wanted to go. Now there aren't any ads in the paper anymore, and stores don't seem to have the fun sales on that day like they used to. I suppose this way people aren't getting trampled to death for a TV anymore, so it's probably for the best.

Black Friday shopping became a tradition with my daughter when she was little. I've hardly missed a year now in about 25 years! It's not like it used to be, but that's ok - still fun even if I only go to 1 or 2 stores. Merry Christmas to you, too.

      @@BeyondBooks-wt5il That's wonderful to hear! I'll check the list out again as I am sharing all the video urls in the Community posts. I'll send this tag out on the 24th.. Pat was trying to tag me too 😉 I keep trying through my Italian channel but I can't even see myself 😂🍷

    First, I love that hat! ❤️. I live in wine country, so seems like your Christmas drink is the perfect drink! Fun video!

    I don’t drink much coffee but when I do, I have it with a spoonful of cocoa and half and half. I call it Chaffee. My all-time favorite Christmas book that I now read with my grandkids and kids is The Best Christmas Pageant Ever by Barbara Robinson. I believe it’s also a movie but I’ve never watched it. The book is too delicious! BTW: your Christmas hat looks adorable on you. Happy holidays!

      @susan3037 well, next time you drink it, you will think of me! And thank you! I was thinking Raina needs a hat!
