    Love how organized you are in planning your reading! I am still a hit or miss reader, whatever catches my eye or appeals to me at the moment.

    So many readers seem to be getting Michelle Obama's book. I wonder if part of that is that we wish we were still in the Obama era. Sigh...

    I've read a few books by Nothomb and always enjoyed them. I need to read this one and her latest in French, also Vox! My recap is here: https://wordsandpeace.com/2018/11/30/2018-november-wrap-up/

    Wow, that *was* a good reading month. Quite fancy the sound of Alaskan Holiday so will be interested to hear what you think of that.

    It looks like November was a great reading month - a lot of 4 star + reviews.

    I had hoped to get to a couple of books you're reading in December myself - the new Jodi Picoult & of course Michelle O'Bama's book - but I think they'll be ones I get to next year, realistically. Happy reading in December! I hope the reading year ends well for you!
