Member of the Month: December 2016, Momlovesbooks

Post by Gravy »

I invite one and all to join me in congratulating our December Member of the Month: Momlovesbooks!

You might not find her reading by candlelight (or in a bubbly jacuzzi) as much as she'd like, but you can almost always find her posting in the book of the month forum, adding her :twocents-twocents: to the various conversations.
Though romance holds a special place on her bookshelf, she's been known to admit (proudly) to loving Twilight, and enjoying (oft looked down upon, but underappreciated) juvenile fiction (I'm with you!); or confessing to an unconventional method of ousting anger (saying the word 'bubbles').

And if you know her from nowhere else, you've probably read one of her many and informative reviews. You might even have added a book to your 'to-read' list thanks to her (I know I have), but we won't hold that against her.

If you don't see her around, she's likely to be enjoying an episode of Outlander; The Walking Dead; or, given the time of year, she might even be watching one of her favorite Christmas movies, It's a Wonderful Life.

So let's all welcome Momlovesbooks to the MOTM club!
May I suggest a hat shaped like a Christmas tree?
Pronouns: She/Her

Thanks for the birthday(month) wishes! It's on the 24th - I'm a Christmas Eve baby. And my mom and great aunt have birthdays this month. Always a favorite time of the year.

Congratulations! The honor is well deserved.

We previous MOTM's have worn a seasonal hat during the MOTM reign. Since it's also your birthday month, you will have to alternate a Christmas tree hat with a birthday hat! Happy birthday (month).

@bookowlie - Owlie, I think a Santa hat would be appropriate.
