Hello readers.
I’m taking a little blogging break, but I'll be back here on January 1st. I’ve been a little burned out lately with
blogging so I’m taking time off to recharge my batteries. I plan on reading a lot and checking in on Goodreads from time to time with status updates. In my absence I’m giving away a $25 Gift Card
to either Amazon or Barnes & Noble or The Book Depository, winner’s choice, and I’ll have another
Box of Books Giveaway coming up next week.
I hope everyone has a lovely time through the holidays! I’ll leave you
with a picture of where I’d love to be spending my time (I’m imagining a big
roaring fire in the fireplace) curled up with a good book. I’ll have to make do with my own fireplace, I
guess!

December is a rough month for reading. I am in the middle of Mr. Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore & Burial Rites. I'm sure I'll get a few more in; maybe The Twistrose Key & The Diviners. Thank you for the giveaway and enjoy your break!
I'm looking forward to reading The Testing and Independent Study.
I'm looking forward to reading Allegiant.
Happy holidays!
Allegiant ....have a wonderful holiday all!!!!
I think I'm going to put most of my TBR pile on hold over the holidays and reread some old favourites ;) Thanks for the giveaway and have a good Christmas!
I made a list of books I plan to read by the end of this month. It's filled with books I bought but never found the time to read-Clockwork Princess, Siege and Storm, Days of Blood & Starlight, The Diviners and so on. Hope I'll read at least 3 of them.
Rebel Spring and Taste of Darkness.
I know exactly what you mean, Rachel! I've been getting lazy lately and not reviewing the books I pick up or just writing mini-reviews, so I'll have to recharge soon enough as well. I hope you have a great break, dear!(:
The fiery heart by Richelle Mead!!! I've been soooooooo busy that I didn't get the time to read it.. :(
Thanks for the giveaway - Sofia T.
I want to read a lot of romantic novels :)
Contemporary novels. I want it romantic this Christmas :D
-Dannielle
I'm looking forward to reading Somewhere in France at the end of December when it comes out.
I'm looking forward to rereading some of the Gallagher Girls books by Ally Carter so I can get ready to read the last book in the series. ALSO, I may have to reread CINDER and SCARLET by Marissa Meyer in anticipation for the release of CRESS… Can't wait! ^^ Thanks for the giveaway!
Aww, Rachel, I totally understand why you need to take a blogging break, but we'll miss you! But sometimes it really is necessary just to take a few steps back and enjoy reading for once, without having to worry about writing reviews and upkeeping a blog. I hope you have some wonderful holidays, even if you won't be curled up in front of a fireplace like that one. ;)
I'm looking forward to faaar too many books this December!! I have my winter break then, so I have a ton of books lined up to read. I guess I'm really excited to read Allegiant, as I haven't done that yet.
Have fun on your break! <3

thx u ;)
Aw Rachel, we'll miss you! But you totally deserve a break :) Enjoy!
As for the giveaway, I'm looking forward to finishing my ReadingCram goals as well as starting some Edelweiss books (INTO THE STILL BLUEEEE!)
I have so many books to read but I'm especially going to focus on book by Entangled Publishing :)
I start another hectic college semester in January and for 16 weeks I won't be able to do much blogging other than spotlight posts - My Christmas break will hopefully catch my reading up a bit.
Enjoy your break! I've been thinking this would be the perfect time to take one since people are busy with the holidays anyway. I hope you gets lots of reading done and come back feeling refreshed. :-)
There are SO many books I'm looking forward to reading this month, but I'm most excited about Into the Still Blue (which I think I'll read next week on my birthday) and Unhinged.
Right now, I really want to read Avalon, and Hover.
RACHEL NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Everyone is leaving, it's making me so sad:( *starts sobbing* I will be stalking you come January first, just giving you a head's up on that. I will forcibly drag you back to the blogging world if I have to. Okay, I won't really and I totally understand needing a break, I've been there before and no doubt will be again, so I hope you enjoy your time off, but you will be missed! *sobs some more*
Jasprit, are you taking a break too?
Styxx by Sherrilyn Kenyon :)
Happy holidays! :)
Enjoy your holidays, Rachel, as well as your blogging break! You deserve it!
Have a wonderful break!!! Here's hoping it's the relaxing, recharge that you need :) My goal is to hit the TBR mountain pile I've accumulated and either start reading or weeding. Thanks for the awesome giveaways :)
Through the ever night and Into the still blue!
Happy holidays! Have fun!
Everyone needs a break here and there, Rachel! Have fun, read a lot, let me know if there are any great deals on audiobooks and come back soon! January 1st is around the corner anyway.
We'll miss you!
That photo makes me very happy. I will miss you, Rachel!!!
Enjoy your break!
Hope you have a lovely break, Rachel! See you when you get back. :)
I'm looking forward to reading The Book Thief! I want to read it before I see the movie. :)
I want to reread hunger games ^^ and then watching the film too...thanks for the giveaway :D
Rainbow Rowell's Eleanor and Park
No Jenny I'll still be here :D
Totally understand! I'm considering it, too, especially since I'm so far behind in my reviewing... Happy holidays!
I dont really get a chance to get any new release books that has/will come out in December.. I have been trying to catch up on some old(not too old,though) books..I started back into reading about 2-2 1/2 yrs ago so i have a pretty long list of books that i want to read.. Thanks for the giveaway-Enjoy your break and Happy Holidays!!!!!!
I'm really looking forward to reading United We Spy by Ally Carter (It's on my Christmas list.lol)
Ahhr... So many! I've got a lot of books lined up like Allegiant and The Fiery Heart <3
Hope you have an amazing blogging break Rachel. <3 and read lots of books, hih :) I'm not sure yet what I wish to read. Probably Rebel Spring :D Thank you for the amazing giveaway. <3
Looking foward to too many!
I hope you have a great blogging break and I look forward seeing you back in January! And how generous that you are giving away so much money! I look forward to read some of my January/February ARC's :D
I'm looking forward to too many! :D But I do want to start completing the series that I haven't completed or finished reading yet. I also want to read all my TBR's but that will take more than the rest of December :p Thanks for the giveaway! ^_^
Sad that you're taking some time off but that's just because I'm selfish :P Enjoy your time off, we'll be eagerly awaiting your return! I know how you feel, it can be tough when you burn yourself out :(
I can't wait to read Wuthering Heights during December :D
I haven't thought which title yet, but I'm thinking of something light to read and not really a series. Perhaps an anthology would do it. ;)
Nothing wrong with a short hiatus - I did that back in October and it was so refreshing and made me ready to come back in November with full force. I hope the same thing happens to you, Rachel! Enjoy your holidays. :)
And I'm looking forward to reading the YA scifi debut Control this month.
Hmm... Right now I'm reading The Eye of Minds. I'd also like to get my hands on a copy of Rebel Spring. I loved Falling Kingdoms!

Happy Christmas! I'm hoping to read some of my own books in December, like maybe Struck by Lightning finally.

Totally understand about the need for a blogging break--but what are you doing giving away books while you go on hiatus?! Trust you to be super generous, hah.
I'm glad to see you are reading THE SHADOW READER, too! I loved that one, I hope you do, too.
Wendy @ The Midnight Garden
I totally feel like a blogging break too. I may just do that myself soon. Take a two week vacation!!
Lily @ Bookluvrs Haven
Forgot to answer the question: duh. I am looking forward to catching up on my Netgalley pending review list. I have some really cool books waiting for me. I hit a zombie and apocalyptic mad period, and yearning for some good romance. So I will be grabbing a few of those until I tire of that, and jump back on my dark reads. :) Hope you enjoy your break!
Lily @ Bookluvrs Haven
I'm looking forward to reading Champion--just bought the boxed set of the trilogy and can't wait to see how it ends :D

I hope you have a great blogging break Rachel and have a happy holiday! Thanks for the amazing giveaway and I'm looking forward to seeing what books you've read in the new year. :)
Whatever I can get my hands on! I am looking forward to finishing up Emerald Green by Kerstin Gier, and reading the complete Angel series by L.A. Weatherly. I read the first one a long time ago, but I just got my hands on the 2nd and 3rd books, so I am going to have a marathon!
