I’m feeling a bit cranky about Winter, and trying to put that mood in context here — also sharing a few of my Winter Sketchbook pages. Wondering if any of my Winter mood resonates with any of you — I’d love to read your comments.

That’s a deceptive photo heading this post. . . those are books my husband and I bought ourselves for Christmas, and you’ll have to wait at least a month before they start showing up here. But I have a full slate of books I read in December — as usual, these range across the genres: literary fiction to memoir to popular genre fiction, book in translation, children’s novel, historical fiction. . . it’s all here. Hope you’ll find something that appeals and that you’ll leave us a comment about a book or two you’ve liked (or not) lately. Click through to join in! Happy Reading!
