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 10 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 : Under the Tree – a book you forgot you owned.
21 Days Remaining
This is a book that I was so excited to buy and yet again it seems to have sat on my shelves, unloved and gathering dust. It’s not as simple as being forgotten of course, it’s more a question of time – or the lack of it. Have you read this – do I need to make room regardless and fit this one in?? It does sound good.
Tomorrow’s prompt: Mistletoe – a little bit of romance


Seeing this is a reminder that I also own this, and also haven’t read it yet 😀
Whoops – I think I’ve owned this for some time too. And, it has lovely reviews. Maybe 2025 will be the year for us both.

I haven’t read it.

I do feel guilty sometime for buying books and not reading them. More time – that’s what we need.

I have lots of books like that, lol. Just having them makes me happy though.
Yes, I know what you mean.

This was new to me. Here is my post!

I do need to make more of an effort to read the books I’ve had for so long.
