2013 Books

 This year's list is shamefully short.  I blame Doctor Who, HIMYM and my stint of watching Grey's Anatomy (which I have thankfully given up).  I'm not going to vow any sort of nonsense about doing better.  Year 30 is all about doing whatever my little gypsy soul feels like doing.  And if it feels like reading more than twenty-two books this year, that's up to it.

I'll also be doing a year in review early next week (which will include my favourite movies and episodes of the year).  I will also be working on my list of things I am excited to see/read in 2014!

Here's to hoping I do a better job of blogging next year.....
