I’d planned today to disclose my favourite and least favourite books of the year. But it’s been a tiring day and the brain isn’t up to it. So you’ll have to suspend your excitement for just one more day.
In the meantime here’s a fun meme I found on Lizzy’sLiteraryLife today. The origin of this seems clouded in mystery. Lizzy spotted it on Annabel’s website who in turn saw it on Laura’s site.
The idea is to answer some questions using only the titles of books read this year (ie 2019), trying not to use any book more than once. (Links in the titles will take you to my reviews)
In high school I was: Becoming by Michelle Obama
People might be surprised by: My Brilliant Career by Miles Franklin
I will never be: The Bowery Slugger by Leopold Borstinski
