Where’s Hugh?

Hello Everyone, In every darkness there is light and the incredible books that have been turned out during Covid is splendid proof. Lockdown lead to much creativity and as a result we have a stellar line up for this year's Book Circle! Each was selected based on Prize winning, or buzz, or being one of my favourite authors... I am very excited to dive into these. Any will make an amazing holiday gift. Enjoy! In no particular order here they are:

Happy New Year all! I haven't posted in some time as I have been heads down as most people: trying to survive the lockdown, the virus, constant changes to work conditions, etc.  But I am back to blogging in 2021 now that 2020 is done - and good riddance too! Most of 2020 was a write-off of course, but a some great things did come out of the year: some great books! I have started a Book Circle with some friends for 2021. We will read a book every month and pass it on until we have worked through 12 titles. It is a great way to keep reading when all you want to do is binge Netflix and eat Pot of Gold Chocolates on the couch.  I am excited to read all of these books and encourage those of you who read any/all of them to respond with your comments/opinions on the selections.  Here is my TOP Twelve list of reads for 2021 made up primarily of books published in 2020 in no particular order. Happy Reading! #1 is Hamnet & Judith , by Maggie O'Farrell.  #2 is The Glass Hot...
