November 2015 ~(‾▿‾)~
This month's RAT will start on November 22nd and end on November 29th. You have two options this month!

Option 1.
Try to read a book about Thanksgiving or something Thanksgiving-like on the cover. This includes things like:
Apples
Being thankful
Birds/Turkeys
Pilgrims
Pumpkins
Shopping (since Black Friday is the 27th)
Cover is orange, brown, or red (or all three)

Option 2.
Red Planet Day is November 28th. Try to read a book about Mars! This includes:
Sci-fi about the planet Mars
Mythology about the God Ares, the Greek God of War

If anyone has any suggestions, please feel free to shout them out!

Post here in this topic each of the books you read
Please only post once and update

Brie | 569 comments I think I am going to read: Red Rising (Red Rising Trilogy, #1) by Pierce Brown for red, then Golden Son (Red Rising Trilogy, #2) by Pierce Brown for brown and for orange: The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie (Flavia de Luce, #1) by Alan Bradley
Is that too literal? I couldn't find anything Thanksgivingy that looked interesting to me..

No, that's great! That's why I gave 2 options this month - it's hard finding Thanksgiving books.

There are cute Thanksgiving cozy mysteries too if you like those.

I think I may join you in reading Golden Son! I've been wanting to read it and it works perfecting with the Mars theme.

Super cool! It's been on my list for a while, it's nice to have a reason to knock it off!

Speaking of Golden Son - if anyone else has been wanting to listen to it, it's on sale today on Audible for ~5 bucks.

Brie | 569 comments I did not do so well this read a thon! I'm only a few chapters away from finishing Red Rising, I read a lot this last week and it's a great book but my eyes are apparently bigger than my to-read stack!
