Ho-Ho-Ho Holiday Read-a-Thon November 7-11

I really enjoy the Christmas season, so much so that when Starbucks announces that their red cups and Christmas drinks are out, I know that the Christmas season is close at hand.  I also enjoy Christmas-themed read-a-thons, as it usually gets me in the spirit and it also gets my book read count up, as the books are usually shorter than the vast majority of novels.  So when a holiday themed read-a-thon pops up during the summer months, I know that I can start to get into the holiday mode (well, the displays at Costco usually get me in the mood at times, even though they do appear in the middle of July). 

So back to the read-a-thon, its really easy.  All you have to do is sign up at Caffeinated Book Reviewer with your blog or whatever site you use to do your social media on (Goodreads, Tumbler, Twitter, Google+, Facebook, etc).  Grab the button and share.  Here are some more rules:
