December Monthly Challenge
1. 'D' is for December: - Read a book that starts 'D' or whose author's first or last name starts with 'D'..
2. Happy Anniversary: Read a book that was published in December of any year or read a book of an RRRC member who joined in December of any year.
3. Featured Author Challenge - Elizabeth Hoyt: Read a book by this month's Featured Author, Elizabeth Hoyt , or by any author with her first or last name.
Fun Facts about Elizabeth:
* Elizabeth Hoyt is a New York Times bestselling author of historical romance
* She also writes deliciously fun contemporary romance under the name Julia Harper
* Elizabeth lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota
* Elizabeth's first novel, The Raven Prince, was the Winner RT Book Reviews‘ 2006 Reviewer’s Choice Award for Sensual Historical Romance
* She writes the fairy tales in her books herself. They often are based on older fairy tales, myths or legends, though, so parts of them may sound familiar.
So you may read any book set in Minnesota, or a historical or contemporary romance, or a book that has won an award (of any kind), or a book that is a fairy tale retelling.
