The jingle bell tag

I saw this over on The Bookie Monsters (it was created by Richard over at The Humpo Show) and decided since we are getting ever closer to Christmas that it might get me in the spirit!!

There are lots of books that I would like to see under my tree this year but the one that is on the top of the list is…

The Wolf Trial by Neil Mackay

My first couple are Sonea and Akkarin from The Black Magician Trilogy and my second couple are King and Mia from The King Trilogy (even though I still haven’t finished the last book).
