Let's just lay our cards on the table, shall we, and agree that, on the whole, 2016 was an abysmal year.
And I'd just like to personally invite it not to let the door hit it on the way out.
This is me being as charitable as I can possibly be at this point.
That said, I want to send a glorious shout out to the wonderful books that have come out this past year, and to all the authors (and readers) who have not given in to the anxiety, depression, anger, and fear that I know so many of us have felt throughout the past twelve months (or more). It is the last day of the year, and I have poured all of my gratitude (and hope for a better one to come) into my annual list of my favorite reads of the year. Just 17 this year. Fewer than the past few years, which indicates a healthy dose of necessary rereading in this year that has been what it was, as well as the fact that I just didn't get to as many new releases.
(in the order in which I read them)

Eek! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteYAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!! I'm thrilled. I bet Will is excited. I am so happy for you....which is odd because I'm pretty sure I would have been just as happy if it had been a boy, but for some reason now that I know it is a girl it seems like I'm more happy that it is!.....hmmmm, did that make sense....anyway.....YAAAAAY! I hope she looks just like you. I can't wait to hear ideas for girl names!
ReplyDeleteHope to see you in Malad in a couple of weeks, but if not, I am crashing on your couch for a night this summer! It's been way too long since I've seen you and been able to really chat.
Thanks, Martha! I'm still a bit amused by how surprised I was. Subconsciously I must have been expecting it to be a boy. Now I'm thinking of all the books I'm going to share with my girl.
ReplyDeleteLiz, it was the funniest thing. Will was dead certain it was a girl all along. When we found out it was he grinned at us and said, "I told you!"
Will and I are planning on being in Malad to see you. But you still have to crash on our couch this summer. Enough is enough!
Yippee! How exciting! When is the little girl due to make her arrival??? Oh dear, I'm going to have to make her some jewelry now! :) Congrats!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kristi! How are you feeling? She's due August 7th or thereabouts. Ooh, jewelry. We love jewelry!
ReplyDeleteAwwww...Congrats! :)
ReplyDeleteThree words: Hooray for girls!!! :)
ReplyDeleteYea!!! 'Tis the season for girls. My brother's wife is having a girl on the 2nd of August and my cousin is having a girl on the 5th of August.
ReplyDeleteShe is going to be soooooo cute! Yea for girls and yea for big brothers like Will!
Thanks, you guys! It does seem to be the season of the girl.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Ang! You are going to love her soooo much.
ReplyDeleteYAY! I'm so happy you're having a girl. I bet you are too. smile.
