I’m prepping this post almost a week early. As you read this, we should be on our way back from Thanksgiving with friends in Houston. I hope that you had a happy Thanksgiving, and that you haven’t gone too crazy with holiday shopping – at least not yet.
But speaking of going crazy, as you can see, I went a bit crazy with Merecedes Lackey’s Elemental Masters series. I read A Scandal in Battersea (review coming this week) and enjoyed it so much that I just had to get the rest of the series. I read the first few a LONG time ago, so now I want to get caught up. I’ve already started A Study in Sable because it looks like a direct prequel to A Scandal in Battersea – which made it utterly irresistible.
Because this is so early, I’m assuming that by the time this posts, I will have received Anna Hackett’s latest Galactic Gladiators book, Rogue. It’s due out on 11/28, so it should come this week. And, as always with Anna’s books, I’m very much looking forward to it!

I’m not the biggest fan of Holiday shopping. I don’t like large crowds and at times it’s so difficult to find the right gift for people
oops so sorry wrong post, ignore my inability to function after the holidays lol![My Profile](https://www.readingreality.net/wp-content/plugins/commentluv/images/littleheartplus.png)

Thanks for the chance! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
Have a safe trip home! I haven’t tried the Lackey series yet, but it sounds good.
