Phoebe - This segment of our book-title game ended when November ended. (We do this rather unofficially, but that's how it works.) You'll find the next segment of the game in the thread titled "The Jingle Bells Game CXXIX." CXXIX indicates that it is the 129th consecutive month of this ongoing game. Welcome to the game!
