December Monthly Update: Happy New Year!
I hope you all had a nice time over the holidays doing whatever your tradition happens to be! I spent a lot of time relaxing with family, skiing (a lot) and taking an Avalanche level 1 course! (That means I know just how terrified I should be of them now. ) On the plus side, see above for a backcountry route we did in Rocky Mountain National Park.
Year in review:
- I did a little thinking and narrowed this year's favorite books to Throne of Glass (series), The Three-Body Problem and Ready Player One. These are all books I continue to think about on a regular basis and really stuck with me. What were your favorites this year?
- Continuing progress on the 2016 Reading Challenge - it has definitely introduced me to some awesome female authors. A few posted recently and a couple more upcoming!
- Still on my graphic novel kick! I just picked up a bunch at the library and am looking forward to reading them.
Book Haul:
- Over Christmas my dad got me "Harry Potter and the Art of Spying" and I also received "The Awakening of HR Derryberry"
- Guns, Germs and Steel
- The Emerald Mile
Coming up next, I'm most excited to read Rejected Princesses, the new A Court of Wings and Ruin (coming in May!) and the upcoming Lucy Varna books (yay Daughter of the People!).
What are the books you've been digging into?
Happy Reading!
