Aww, thanks Natalie. It's my favorite part of the season, looking at what gets nominated and the challenge of reading as many as I can. 🙂

Congratulations! I've never participated in a Cybils, so I'll have to keep tabs on it this year.

Thank you Jess, looking forward to tearing down that TBR list.

It's lots of fun, you should think about it sometime. Lots of reading but also lots of fun talking books. There is a ton of categories too. Even audiobooks this year.
