Some chit chat.

Christmas is upon us and all is ready at my house. I’m off of work for the holidays and plan to spend it doing those things I love. Spending time with family, eating yummy food, reading a bunch of books and watching the telly.

I’ve become hooked on the show, Lucifer. Cracks me up. Such a smexy devil is he. And I watched Bird Box. Holy cow! Have you seen it yet. Such a fabulous cast. My son and I watched it in the dark with the surround sound cranked up. By the end of the movie we were standing up. So intense we couldn’t watch it sitting down. Congrats to Josh Malerman and Netflix!

So, I’m keeping it short. I hope you all have a lovely holiday and Santa brings you some goodies.

Merry Christmas!

  1. Enjoy all the books and the holiday fun and food. Thanks for sharing!

  2. Greg says:

    Merry Christmas! Hope it’s awesome and filled with everything you love. I did just watch Bird Box and it was very intense- and very good!

  3. Merry Christmas Laura! I hope you’ll have a peaceful and joyous holiday, with all the books, and some fantastic times with your family and loved ones ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. Blood River has such a striking cover but I’m unsure if it might be too much police investigation for me. I love the cover for Bane County and that is going on wishlist!

  5. Sounds like you will have a wonderful holiday! Good luck.

  6. Bird Box has truly been trending it seems! I’ve seen it all over Twitter lately. Too bad I’m too much of a wuss ๐Ÿ˜€
    Have wonderful holidays, Laura!

  7. I’m looking forward to starting Lucifer! It’s available on Amazon Prime TV in the UK so it’s going on my watch list for next year. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Have a great break and a merry Christmas!

  8. We’re watching Bird Box today, looking forward to it! Merry Christmas!

      I’d love to hear what you think of the movie. I was caught by surprise. Such a great cast and it kept me glued. Merry Christmas, Priscilla:)

      • It took me awhile to digest the movie. I think I liked it. The ending was not like I expected; maybe that’s what is throwing me. The best scene: the driving scene. “That was just a speed bump.” Ewww! Yes, great cast. Even the little kids were great.

      • fuonlyknew says:

        LOL I saw that scene coming and so did my son. We had to laugh. When a movie has me standing up from suspense, it’s a winner in my book. The trip on the river was nail biting.

  9. feeroberts64 says:

    The Needle House, now, that’s an intriguing title. Merry Christmas, Laura XX

  10. vvb32 says:

    Cursed City looks interesting. Happy holidays and reading ๐Ÿ™‚

  11. Carole says:

    I hope you have a fantastic Christmas, Laura! It sounds like you have an excellent plan in place for the holiday ๐Ÿ™‚ I watched Bird Box with my daughter yesterday. I didn’t like the book when I read it years ago. I thought that the movie was better and the cast was impressive.

    • fuonlyknew says:

      Thank you, Carole. The Bird Box got me going. Its been a while since a movie had me pacing because I couldn’t just sit and wait to see what was going to happen.

  12. kozbisa says:

    Glad you are enjoying your time off. I hope you have a very merry Christmas!

  13. My one goal for the this week is to binge watch a few things. Bird Box is one I am adding to my list!

    I hope you have a awesome time off! Have a very Merry Christmas, Laura!

  14. Yvonne says:

    We watched Bird Box last night. What a great movie! They did an amazing job with it. Hope you enjoy your time off. Merry Christmas!

  15. Northwoman says:

    Your holiday plan is excellent! I hope it goes well and comfortably. Merry Christmas and the very best to you and your family. Enjoy this holiday break. Anne – Books of My Heart

  16. Beware Of The Reader says:

    Bwahaha I also love that smexy devil Laura! Merry Christmas and happy family time ๐Ÿ˜‰

  17. Gayathri Lakshminarayanan says:

    I love Lucifer too. I hope you are having fun with your family during the holiday. Merry Christmas!

  18. Ive heard good things about Bird box. Until like 2 days ago I had never heard of it though. I will add it to my binge list for break! Merry Christmas!

    • fuonlyknew says:

      I have the book but never got to it. Now I’m curious to see if it is as good as the movie. Merry Christmas to you too:)

  19. sjhigbee says:

    I have just scooped up Traveler in the Dark – thank you for the pressie, Laura:)). I hope you have a lovely Christmas and a peaceful, happy 2019…

    • fuonlyknew says:

  24. Daniela Ark says:

    Glad to hear you are off during the holidays and doing the things you love. I was a big fan of Lucifer too! I should go back and finish the series! I KNEW IT! I knew you were going to love Bird Box. You’d love the book even more ๐Ÿ™‚

    • fuonlyknew says:

      The last episode was so weird. I’d like to know what you make of it. I did love Bird Box. I have the book and now I”ve got it on the stack to read soon. Very curious how close the movie was to the story. It sure had some tense moments!

  25. StackingMy BookShelves says:

    Your books this week look interesting. I hope you got a lot of great books for Christmas. Hope you had a great week.
