Whatever holiday you celebrate during this holiday season, I hope you have a lovely time with your family and friends! I am gonna try!
I’m dealing with some house issues that recently occurred, so my holiday spirit is not quite there, but that’s not gonna stop me from:
- hanging with family.
- listening to Christmas music and belting it from the top of my lungs.
- wearing the hell out of my holiday sweater (though I’m not gonna stop until December ends).
- watching my yearly holiday tradition of The Nutcracker (the 1986 version) + Charlie Brown Christmas specials.
I hope you have a jolly Christmas + holiday! What Christmas or holiday traditions do you have?
It is the most wonderful time for the year~!
In honor of the holiday season, I made a wallpaper of My True Love Gave To Me! I thought it would be quite fun to use the cover illustration, the chapter headings, and the Twelve Days of Christmas song to spotlight this very cute book. (I know that everybody doesn’t celebrate Christmas, and I wanted to be inclusive of all holidays around this season, but I really wanted to use the song. :P)
Thank you to St. Martin’s Griffin for sending me a copy of the book. I’ve been meaning to get this last year. :)
Shall we take a look at the wallpaper? Sing along to the Twelve Days of Christmas song but with the things below instead. ;) (It probably won’t be rhythmically in sync, but hey, it’s a holiday experiment!)

Inspired by What She Reads, Pure Imagination Blog, and Stacked.I admit I’m a book cover snob. Who isn’t though?
Book covers are the first thing that attracts readers to a book. A good cover can draw someone is, just as a bad cover can easily draw someone away. It can essentially make or break a book. Holy, Mother Cover! is where I showcase the book covers that stand out (or make me cringe) and discuss cover changes.
(A big special thanks to Georgie at What She Reads for bestowing me this fabulous name and to Charlotte at The Simple Tales for creating the beautiful feature banner you see before you.)
IT’S ALMOST CHRISTMAS, DUDES! *flails arms*
And you know what I want to do? Show off my favorite snow covers! Because it’s almost Christmas. And no Christmas is complete without snow. (Well, I live on the West Coast, so there’s never snow. Whoops.)
THEME: Snow!
Today is all about giving thanks (and eating tons of food). I want to thank all my family, friends, fellow bloggers, and followers for always being there and creating an awesome community. I don’t think my life would be as bright and enjoyable if I didn’t have any of them.
Last year, I wrote a brief Thanksgiving letter dedicated to “you,” but this year, I wanted to thank the authors I adore, the ones who fill my life with awesomeness.
