My Favorite Holiday Reads

Happy Sunday, bibliovores!I haven't done one of these favorites posts in a while, so I'm doing one today! You can check out my other favorites posts in a previous posts (for example). 

I love the holiday season! We are in the thick of it now, and I wanted to share some of my favorite Young Adult and Adult holiday fiction novels. Happy reading and happy holidays!

        

Here are a few that I've not read but want to read!

    

Do you have any holiday recommendations for me? I'll take anything!

Happy Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day! In the United States, we celebrate the last Monday in May, in honor of all of the people who died while serving our country in the armed forces. I may not love the idea of war, or having an army, or people killing other people, but I will always salute the brave people who volunteer to give their lives to be in the army. This day isn't about barbecues or amazing sales or having the day off. Soldiers - thank you for your service.

And hey, while we're here: how about some of my favorite military romances! These romance novels feature a hero/heroine who served in the military. Enjoy (and please thank a soldier for their service)!

    

    

    

    

I am a huge fan of military romances, so please recommend any that you loved!
