Best Book Covers of 2019
This week’s Friday Favourites asks you to go ahead and judge a book by its cover. The theme this week is Best Book Covers of 2019.
Book Boyfriends and/or Girlfriends
I don’t really get the whole book boyfriends and/or girlfriends thing. I think, when it comes down to it, I attach myself more to the book than specific characters. I’m willing to list a couple of favourite characters, though.
Holiday Stuff – Books and Movies
I don’t know about you, but Christmas makes me tired. I also try not to saturate myself on the holidays, so I’m chopping this list in half to present five holiday books that I like…and five holiday movies. Because that’s just the way I roll.
Advent arrives
It’s the first day of December, so that means American Thanksgiving is over and we lived through another November. For the more religious of us, that means we’re now firmly in Advent. There are only 24 shopping days til Yule. Are you ready?
Favourite Books I Read in School
They say you never forget your first love. That adage still holds true when it comes to your favourite books.
The Remaking by Clay McLeod Chapman
I really wanted to like The Remaking. It had an interesting premise, and interesting material to draw from. Unfortunately, it just didn’t stick the landing.
Books that Influenced My Life
When I think about books that influenced my life, I think of the landmark books. The books that were an accessible introduction to an author or a genre.
Backlist – Books I haven’t read yet
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is a freebie due to the US Thanksgiving Holiday. I’m going to take a look at the books in my backlist that I haven’t read yet.
Sock Knitting and Reading
It doesn’t feel like I did a lot this week, but I did find some reading time. I also managed to fit in a little sock knitting. Now if only I didn’t feel so exhausted!
Book Buddies – Favourite Character Team-ups
Having a strong main character can make a so-so book good. Having a strong couple of book buddies can make a good book great. The trick is to find personalities that balance each other out.
