Merry Christmas! What are you reading this Friday? (12/25)

Did Santa bring you a new book you couldn't wait to start?

QOTW:  Does/Did Santa wrap the gifts left under your tree?

No one but me is awake yet, so gifts yet. I know I'm getting the illustrated Harry Potter, yay! Right now I'm reading In the Heart of the Sea: The Tragedy of the Whaleship Essex by Nathaniel Philbrick. I had trouble getting started with it but now I'm enjoying it.

QOTW: Everything gets wrapped in my family.

I've finished book #66 for the year and have 2 more in progress. I'm listening to Rebecca and reading A Reader's Book of Days for the last two tasks on the Ultimate Reading Challenge. I also have Death in the Truffle Wood ready to start, but I hate having a book roll over the year, so I may hold off on that one. Decisions, Decisions…

QOTW: My Santa never wrapped anything. If anything under the tree was wrapped, we knew it was from my Arkansas grandparents/aunts/uncles. My Santa was a bit on the lazy side; he didn't even put anything together for us.

I am reading A Family Affair on my Nook.  It is fine, I am sure it was a Nook "deal".  It has been hard to fine time, the holidays are so busy! 

No no books for me today, but I have one more exchange this weekend and I imagine there will be novels and cookbooks and possibly a Barnes & Noble gift card.  Yeah!

QOTW: all gifts are wrapped.

I'm reading Flight Behavior by Barbara Kingsolver, slow getting into it because of time.
No books for Christmas, but I did get the 2nd 1/2 of season 1 of Outlander. It's like a book, right?!

Santa never and does not currently wrap gifts. This year would have been tough with a seesaw and bike!

Is today Friday? I got Bazaar of Bad Dreams for Hanukkah, and Finders Keepers for Xmas. I also got a couple of Phish biography type books from my sister. They're all ACTUAL books, which I haven't read in years (even though I was a long-time kindle holdout). Meanwhile, I'm reading My Life with Owlsley on my kindle (it was a black fishy special and it's so interesting!)

I borrowed the series from a friend and read it last year, so good.
