2017 HoHoHo Readathon... It's the most wonderful time of the year!


Gotta say... It's a little weird to be talking about the HoHoHo Readathon while we're going through a heat wave in Southern California. After today's ass-kicking 105 degrees, I'm happy to visit snow covered small towns, even it is only through the pages of a Christmas romance. This is my first year participating and I can't wait!

2017 HoHoHo Readathon


It’s that time of year when the holiday and winter-themed books hit the bookshelves. It’s also time to sign up for the Fifth Annual HoHoHo Holiday/Winter Readathon! hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated Reviewer.  Gather up your favorite cocoa, comfort foods, holiday music and books and join in the fun!
