Following tradition my final book of the year will be a Stephen King. I actually have not read anything by King in a very very long time so I am really looking forward to this. My first book of '23 will be an Agatha Christie. I haven't decided which one yet though.

#12Booksof2022. #January
My pick for January is this story of an atypical mother/child relationship which I read as part of my #NewYearWhoDis pairing with @AmyG
So excited to be matched with @BarbaraJean for #AuldLangSpine!
I had already read and loved some of her list: Passing, People of the Book, The Night Gardener, Sea of Tranquility, Crossing to Safety. Pictured above are the titles I can't wait to read!
Thanks to @monalyisha for matching us and setting this up!!! So fun!
A quiet novel full of compassion (for others, but also finding it for yourself) and a healthy dose of wit. I loved the Neons, the nuns, and especially Agatha. How she slowly grew her confidence; and her journey through questioning her convictions while never judging those around her for theirs.
Thank you for the recommendation @monalyisha 🎉 I don't think I'd have even heard of this one if it wasn't on your list last year!
If you haven‘t participated in #AuldLangSpine (formerly known as #NewYearWhoDis), now is your opportunity, but you must be quick! Check out @monalyisha for more details—it‘s a really fun event where you create a list of your favorite books this year for someone else to read from, and then Alyisha pairs you up with someone else‘s list for you to read from!
Reminder: the opportunity to qualify for early access to my #AuldLangSpine event (formerly #NewYearWhoDis #NYWD) is officially closed.
Early access links to the registration form will go out Sunday, 11/20, by email. Those who qualified STILL NEED TO REGISTER/FILL OUT THE FORM! You are NOT registered yet! This just means that you‘ll have a leisurely handful of days to do so before…
General registration opens on Fri, 11/25 @ 8pm (EST). 👇🏻
That feeling you get when you wake up at 2:30 AM realizing that while you voted by mail a few weeks ago, you didn‘t track your ballot was counted & download your digital #HiVoted sticker. 🤦🏻♀️ So done & done & lucky for me there were a few early access links still left for #AuldLangSpine (formally #NewYearWhoDis ) one of my favorite annual events at Litsy. Thank you @monalyisha 🤗
While I'm sad that we won't have #WinterGames this year, I'm also a bit relieved. Scarathlon gave me some burnout towards the end and I have a couple of personal reading challenges I want to finish, as well as finishing my #NewYearWhoDis list. It feels like I have a bit of room to breathe now! 😂
It‘s never too early to start mulling what‘s going to appear on my #NewYearWhoDis list is it???
