Baroness’ Update December 2018
December was so magical. I tried a few new things on the blog, some worked and some I am still thinking about some.
There were lots of great stories. I was lost in Christmas Town for part of the month. It’s a beautiful place, and I will be returning there to finish the rest of these incredible romances. Then I read a few more holiday romances, cozy mysteries and had a couple of guest reviews. All in all, I learned that even if I have specific plans made for myself, holidays seem to take over. Not that this was a bad thing.

On the personal side ~
Watching the Christmas movies and reading Christmas books all month was fabulous. It brought home the holiday spirit. I hope that all of you enjoyed the season as well.
As for snow here in Montana, Big Mountain in Whitefish is looking sweet. However, we in Marion have some snow but not as much as we have had the last couple of years. I enjoy the snow and how beautiful it makes our yard and the mountains around us look.
January Reading List
I have signed up for a few blog tours, and I have a few books that I also agreed to read this month. It isn’t too many (I hope). So watch for the reviews as I am excited about each of these books.
I also wanted to tell you that there are a lot of marvelous books coming out this month. So, check out the New Releases in January post.
Thanks for stopping by. I hope your December was fabulous and filled with family, love, and fantastic books.
Until next time, happy reading!
