Finally on the last Vampire Academy book (Last Sacrifice). This one isn't hooking me yet, but whatever. It's 52 for the year.
I do. I started maybe 5-6 years ago by actually putting up a (fake) Christmas tree for the first time in my adult life after my now-husband and I moved in together. I can't find my sleigh bells this year, which sucks. But I have the tree up, a bunch of pewter Christmas decorations (my dad buys me some every year), candles in the windows, a snow globe, a wreath, and my husband is actually putting up an outdoor decoration this weekend, too, now that we have a house.
We also have fall decorations - mostly stuff left over from our wedding. A wreath, some wheat sheaves, some iron pumpkins, more fall candles.
I'm reading Flat Out Celeste by Jessica Park. I'm enjoying it.
QOTW: Yep for the most part. I have a winter wreath (for the front door), Valentine's Day wreath, St. Patrick's Day wreath, Easter wreath and decorations (a few), Halloween wreath and decorations, fall wreath and decorations, and a Christmas wreath and decorations. Halloween and Christmas get the most decorations, including outside. I guess I don't do anything for the summer holidays.

Clearly, you need a Fourth of July Wreath
Lol, I know! A patriotic one that I could use for Memorial Day, the 4th and Labor Day! I've made about half of the wreaths I have, guess I need to make a patriotic one!
I just finished White Oleander (liked it but did not love, felt it was very depressing, I am have the sad's right now so it wasnt a great fit lol)
I also just finished An Ex To Grind by Jane Heller - also just ok. It was a quick, light, predictable fun read. Did not require much brain action, which I def need sometimes!

Having finally finished The State Counsellor (it was worth it in the end, but it was a tough read for me), I for through Masquerade by Nancy Moser and then two Carola Dunn Daisy Dalrymple short stories before beginning Three Bags Full (a Sheep Detective Story) by Leonie Swann. Yes, all on Friday. I enjoyed Masquerade, and the short stories, though short stories are always a tease for me, I just want more. And Three Bags Full is beginning very well.
QOTW: Only Christmas. I put up a tree and I hang stockings. And we have an Advent Wreath on our dining room table. I am still looking for the perfect Nativity Scene. I like this one I saw in Canada, but DH says it's too stylized for his liking.
I just finished 12 Years a Slave, which was good, and started The Fall of Hyperion, which is the 2nd book in a sci fi series a friend recommended to me.
We decorate sometimes. I really like Christmas lights so we have those up now. No tree, though.
