These Are a Few of My Favorite Reads… The 2012 Christie Edition
Gumdrop on trees and Whiskers on reindeer and…. that’s not the lyrics? But, wait, the song is supposed to be from an EASTER movie I’ve been told (although why the Song of Music is an EASTER movie I’ve never figured out….) And would Maria and Scarlett have a fight over the drapes if they were ever together?!??! AHH! (this is what happens when there’s too much Christmas music in the air)…
Anyway, here are my favorite reads of 2012…. They are definitely skewed for my tastes, so your mileage may vary. Are they going to win prizes and accolades and awards? Some will, some won’t, and that’s OK. Some people will be like, YES, and some will be like, REALLY, you liked THAT? And you are all entitled to your opinion. And these are the ones that I’ve read… I have a pile of ones to be read that I haven’t gotten to yet (Diviners, Smoke and Bone) that have taken a back seat to life and committee work… *sigh*
