#GuessTheBook24

I have #wintergames points questions:
1. Can you count hours read for buddy reads, even if they aren't specifically readathons? Like the buddy read for #queerbc, for instance?
2. Do my #christmascheer and #poetrymatters posts count for points?

#xmaschacha

Thank goodness for the last book I read REALLY boosting my points with the word search words! This is the first time a broke 20,000 points! Woohooo! Thank you again for another amazing #wintergames, I always have a great time and my family loves helping me get non-reading points! #RestingGrinchFace💙

I am so excited that this is back this year… you should join in the fun!!!

Well, I didn‘t participate in extras as much this last week but I did find 32 word search words in my reading (it is insane the amount of times authors use the words “Christmas” and “snow” in holiday books 😆) and spent 33 hours reading for #bookspinbingo , #dashingdecember and #christmasmyway readathons, #averymerrybingo , and #averymerryreadathon ! #wintergames2021 #mistletoemaniacs

Here are my #wintergames2021 totals for week 2! Having @Andrew65 ‘s #dashingdecember readathon and @kimmypete1 , @Eggbeater , and @MidnightBookGirl ‘s #anywayyoureadathon this weekend to add to my #bookspinbingo , #averymerrybingo , and #averymerryreadathon really helped those reading points! So 3,982 for #mistletoemaniacs !

My grand total for week one of #wintergames is 865 points @StayCurious . Next week will be much higher once I finish my current read. The words Christmas and holiday appears A LOT! Not a bad start though. 🎄🌟Looking forward to seeing the total points so far! #teamgamesleighers

Week One stats are in! I found 87 word search words (I‘m only finding the words in my physical books, but In A Holidaze LOVES to say Christmas, Snow, and Holiday in particular 🤣) and read a total of 18 hours and participated in BookSpin Bingo and A Very Merry Bingo. Hoping to read more and watch more this week!

There‘s a lot going on this December, and we want to make sure you don‘t miss out on any of it! So we made a Google folder so everyone has access to all the #photochallenges, #bingoboards, mini games, and contests. Hopefully there‘s something for everyone is this plethora of goodies!

If you come across any posts you‘d like me to add to the folder, just tag me in a post 🤩

#MistletoeManiacs, this is the #WinterGames2021 schedule. The event will be broken up into weeks, which run from Monday‘s to Sunday‘s. Please post your weekly points, and tag me by each Tuesday. @StayCurious and I will then calculate the team totals, and post the #MistletoeManiacs vs #GameSleighers points on each Wednesday.

If you‘re having an extra busy week, and can‘t get your points in on time, you may add them to the next weeks total. ❤️

#TeamGameSleighers, here is some info before the start of the games. First, for those who are new to the #WinterGames, this is an event we host each December on Litsy. My name is Renee and I‘m one of your hosts and will be your team leader. If you need anything I can be reached at lebretonr87@gmail.com - tag me in your posts about the event - please keep reading in the comments for more important info about this year‘s games ⬇️

I had a fun week despite not a ton of points! #readnosedreindeer @StayCurious #wintergames

The picture doesn‘t do it justice, but this is a 20x24 sign I made during my last girls night. Using a $4 canvas from dollarama, I removed the canvas, stained the frame, and reversed the canvas. Then I added the vinyl from a cutfile on the cricut. I LOVE how it came out, and all for $4! ❤️ #HolidayCrafts +5 pts for the #MerryReaders

Here are a few of the holiday crafts I‘ve made! My favourites being the Cozy Christmas sign, and the Bah Hum Pug embroidery hoop. 😍 50 points for the crafts, and 40 points for the #ornamenthunt as both are homemade and have animals on them. ❄️

#Merryreaders

❄ Ready for #wintergames to begin. ❄

#merryreaders

😱 The #WinterGames2020 officially starts in less than 24 hours in my time zone and I could not be more excited for it! I‘m ready to read all the books and watch all the holiday movies! Good luck everyone♥️

🥳🤩😍

It‘s one week until December 1st and you know what that means - Bring on the GAMES! #WinterGames that is 😜 To make things a little easier, and to ensure that no one misses a post, we‘ve decided to give everyone access to a google folder with ALL the WinterGames documents in one place. Bingo Cards, Activies, Games and Spreadsheets are all included.

Check it out here!

I don‘t know if it matters, but I calculated that I got a total of 1,658 points. #WinterGames #ReadNosedReindeer I really enjoyed it even though I kind of fizzled out at the end.

Thanks @Clwojick and @StayCurious for hosting this event.
Thanks @BarkingMadRun for being the team leader of #teamfozziwig
I really enjoyed #wintergames.

Calling it a day 😴 I won‘t be staying up until midnight so Happy New Year everyone 🙋‍♀️🥳 #24B42020 #wintergames #readnosedreindeer

Think this will be the only bingo I get, so I‘m posting now. #wintergames #thefilthyanimals @rather_be_reading

I was actually a little disappointed because I didn‘t receive a single book for Christmas... and after crying out, “You don‘t know me at all!” To my husband and son, I put on my big girl panties and bought myself these two! 😝😝😝

The pics don‘t do this recipe justice- not cooked yet. Every Christmas morning my mom made cheese strata so as an adult I‘ve carried on the tradition. My mom doesn‘t cook much because she‘s old enough “I don‘t cook things out of obligation anymore.” It has taken me years to perfect.

@StayCurious @Clwojick @rather_be_reading

This is the one recipe I am absolutely required to manifest for Christmas and bring to the big family Christmas every year. They‘ll be gone in 5 minutes. Can‘t claim the recipe as my own. All Recipes, search Nordy Bars. Outstanding.

This was my final Free Space- Santa Claus: The Movie! This was one of my favorites as a kid because we saw it in the theater and we didn‘t go to many movies back then.

While crafting I watched one of my favorite shows, #MakingIt, with Nick Offerman and Amy Pohler. My binge included the holiday episode. It keeps my crafting motivation up as I near #craftingoverload.

#WinterGames #TheFilthyAnimals #HolidayMovie

@StayCurious @Clwojick @rather_be_reading

We watched FX‘s new 4 HOUR A Christmas Carol. It‘s long but @toddred29 and I really enjoyed the new take on a Dickens classic. They really explore the dynamics of Scrooge‘s personality and how he came to be one of literature‘s most despised characters.

It took me awhile to think about the best bookish gift (besides books and kindle) that I‘ve received. My sister has gotten me several gifts that I love, but I think I was most excited about this coloring book.
