Good Monday everyone!

Christmas is soon upon us and then, the end of the year. So fast every year! I have already started to compile my favorite reads of 2016, and I feel like it’s been a good reading year. A different one, but a good one. I’ve been thinking about what and when and how I read a lot, though I’m not sure where this thinking is leading yet.

And so, here we are with my last mailbox before the holidays! Lots of exciting reads. I’ve been feeling a bit historical lately (hence Victoria) and non-fiction (hence The Witches), but the one I’m the most intrigued about is The Wenjack. It’s a novella by the author of The Orenda, which I’ve been really tempted to read ever since it came out. I figured it would be a great way to try the author before the year ends, plus it just sounds really interesting.

Victoria by Daisy Goodwin – The Witches by Stacy Schiff

End of Watch by Stephen King – Talon by Julie Kagawa (audio)

Wenjack by Joseph Boyden – The Best Kind of People by Zoe Whittall
