Once again I am counting down to the New Year, as with the previous two years I shall be highlighting at least one book per day to fit the prompt on that given day. The main aim for this countdown is to highlight some of my reads during the past year and to shine the spotlight on them once again (although some of the prompts relate to forthcoming reads). Today is day 6 of the countdown to 2025 and a list of prompts can be found here if you wish to join me in counting down to 2025 and casting a spotlight on some of your favourite books (if you join in please leave me a link so I can check out your book choices).
Today’s Prompt : Christmas stocking – stocking fillers, a novella or short story :
25 Days Remaining
I don’t read a lot of short stories or novellas but Cinderwich was a compelling story.
Tomorrow’s prompt: Christmas Tree – a winter read


This cover is sooooo creepy!!
Yes, it is but I liked the story, although it is a bit dark.

Intriguing cover!
I usually don’t read many short stories, but I have this year.
Though I’m featuring a wonderful literary novella today: https://wordsandpeace.com/2024/12/06/countdown-to-2025-day-6-christmas-stocking/
I’ve just been reading your choices, trying to catch up – we have family with us at the moment so mostly out and about – and eating!

Ooh I did read this and enjoyed it. I missed reviewing it though!
Yes, it was really thought provoking. I kept thinking about it after I’d put it down.
