Peter and Max: A Fables Novel by Bill Willingham and Steve Leialoha -- I adore the Fables comic series and this novel is just as good... Can't wait to finish it! Now if only I could find the time.

Comments
This month was a dismal failure. I got so busy at work, at home, and traveling that I just didn't get much read. I've been averaging 15 books a month, so 7 is bad. I have about 30 books to read for December if I'm going to finish my main reading challenges. I have given up completely on three of them, but I really want to cross the finish line for the others. Hopefully! I have some reading time blocked out in December so I can tackle some of those.
Other than that, November was a full month. I got most of my Christmas cards made. That's right, I'm making homemade Christmas cards this year. I had a great Stampin' Up class with some new ideas to try out. But the big event was traveling back to Indiana for Thanksgiving. I finished a book on the plane going there and a book on the plane coming back. The rest of the time was spent hanging with my boys, friends, and family. We had packed days with activities and reconnecting with friends. I was a bit disappointed with some of the people I thought were friends. But I did get to see many others and we had a great time.
