Looking back at it now, it was a really solid reading year. I mean, it did its usual (for me) thing and meandered its merry way, here and there, up and down, and in fits and starts across the span of all twelve months. But it really did shape up nicely. Which is a good thing, because it was—shockingly, I know—another year in which we so desperately needed the authors and books and words of the world to come through for us. And they did, didn't they? I am, as ever, so grateful for them and their willingness to push through every barrier and battle that I know must try to keep them from putting their visions on paper. And so, as has long been my custom, I record here my list of published books that saw me through the year. Gifts, every one.

That cover is gorgeous! I seem to have a soft spot for flowing tendrils of hair and this has that.

ReplyDeletei can't wait for this one. Cannot. Wait.
ReplyDeleteSo do I! I'd love to see more of her/his work.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. And I'm sorry. ;)
ReplyDeleteMe, too! Back to Ireland but wholly unrelated to her other series. I love the sound of these two characters.
ReplyDeleteI think I might want to live inside that cover because . . . wow.
ReplyDeleteHow long of a paper chain do I have to make for November?
Right? Lol. Let's string one up at work!
ReplyDeleteIt comes out on the same day as the new Sharon Shinn book (the third of that shapeshifter series). Too much goodness in one day!! Let's hope nothing stressful will happen during that week.
ReplyDeleteAhh. Those two have been on the same release cycle for some time now and it is like all the presents wrapped into one heady day. Cannot wait.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read that yet! Let me know what you think of it.
ReplyDeleteI have a good feeling about this one. I just do.
