I know I will garner no sympathy for this, but I have spent most of this month sitting on my couch reading. Sometimes I proofread something, sometimes I get out and see the sky, but mostly I've been in my ground state. Haven't really read anything interesting - mostly old favorites. Here's a partial list of post-Key books:
6 Little House books by Laura Ingalls Wilder (so 3 more to go)
Getting Things Done by David Allen
Flora's Dare by Ysabeau S. Wilce (
saraphina_marie , are you sure you didn't write this book?!)
4 or 5 mystery books by Charlotte MacLeod
1 or 2 Agatha Christies
Thursday Next: First Among Sequels by Jasper Fforde
1 or 2 P.G. Wodehouses
Persuasion and Emma by Jane Austen
Sabriel, Lirael, and Abhorsen (3 books) by Garth Nix
I don't have much of interest to say about any of these, I'm afraid, except that I do recommend them as escape reading! I also usually read the Chronicles of Narnia around Christmas, but haven't started on those yet. In January I hope to translate reading into thought and thought into action. :-) Happy Winter Solstice Christmas, everyone!
