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)

Barcode Baby!
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day! :-)
What a gorgeous baby! I love that name, too.
ReplyDeleteHow gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOh, shucks. She's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI'll say it again: So. CUTE.
ReplyDeleteThanks, you guys. We think she's pretty all right.
ReplyDeleteOh, she's just beautiful Angie! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kimberly. I am so glad she's here and SO glad to not be pregnant anymore. ;)
ReplyDeleteOh she is so pretty. Congratulations, Angie.
ReplyDeleteYay! I figured it was around the time for her to show up. She's gorgeous! Hope you both are recovering well and getting at least a little sleep.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ana!
ReplyDeleteKristi, we are recovering really well. Not so much with the sleep yet, though...How are you feeling these days?
Aw, she's adorable. Cute name, too. Take care!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Brie. We liked the name right from the start. A lot of people have commented on it and I guess I didn't realize it was that uncommon.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Angie! She's absolutely beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Christine!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! She's just lovely.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ann. She's two weeks now and I'm not sure where those two weeks went. I imagine the next few years will feel the same. :)
ReplyDeleteAngie! I love your blog! I haven't seen it yet. =) I'm interested to see what you thought of Breaking Dawn. Hope everything's going well on the home front with your little one!
ReplyDeleteCamie, I didn't know you had a blog either. It's delightful! Mind if I link to it? As for Breaking Dawn, I've been dragging my feet on my review. Mostly because I agree with yours...
ReplyDeleteWow. This is belated - but congratulations! She's adorable.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Janicu. And congratulations yourself! Hope you're enjoying married life.
