Just to recap, here's my responses so far:
Day 1: "Today is the first day of the #TFBRC reading challenge. I’m jumping right in with my collection of Christmas/Winter books. I don’t have clear #Goals but I do want to read Chasing Christmas Past and Christmas from Hell. I’m currently reading Candlelight Courting which I will finish today. I’ve already met my reading goal and upped it a few times for this year so no worries there.

Day 2: "Washington Irving is probably best known for Sleepy Hollow, but today I’m reading his book Old Christmas which just happens to be free for Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/Old-Christmas-Wash…/…/ref=mp_s_a_1_2…

I went through a phase of reading #classics when I was very young. My favorite was Great Expectations. #TFBRC

November 5th is where Facebook didn't let me post so let me continue here. The prompt for this day was DNF (did not finish, ironically enough...) The way I read, I have about 40 books or so started at once and I go back and forth between them. It is very rare for me to not finish a book and I've only recently allowed myself to put books aside when I absolutely cannot finish them (one such book took place in Wisconsin - I live here, I decided I didn't need to read about the people here when I can experience in real life. Another book I set aside recently fell into my idea of witchcraft, so no thanks!)
6th - yesterday's prompt was heartbreaker. I had a migraine yesterday and didn't feel up to trying to get Facebook to post so I skipped this one.. and honestly, as an INTJ personality this one is a bit difficult for me to answer! It seems like the majority of the books I read are happily ever after which actually is a growing source of annoyance for me. Sometimes I want a realistic ending, not everything is roses in life. But that's just me. I did recently pick up James Patterson's "Sam's Letters to Jennifer" from my little free library. It takes place in Wisconsin, briefly mentions someone with my mom's name and involves a character with a brain tumor (which my mom went through last year.) Lots of little things like that in this book which made it very difficult for me to get through, emotionally - though I did really enjoy the book.
... and that brings us to today's prompt which is fall colors and now that I think on it.. I'm not sure how to answer this one, either! Haha. But you know what? I saw an ad today for Christmas trees already. It's November 7th not even close to Thanksgiving yet and already people are preparing for Christmas. It seems crazy, though I am the one reading Christmas books at the moment for a theme. So since I'm drawing a blank, I think today I'll share a deal with you.
Stacey Rourke's The Legends Saga Collection is currently on sale for 99 cents on Amazon. I've only read the first book, Crane, which was an interesting spin on the Headless Horseman tale.. so this will be a good read for next Autumn (yes, I'm planning ahead that far!)
Also on my to read pile next Autumn is the Serenity Woods Fall in Love box set. I got it for free in September but it's currently $5.99 or free with Kindle Unlimited.
I suppose that's it for today. I may try again tomorrow to post to Facebook... if not, I might be back another day blogging and playing catch up when I can :P
