Five Years Ago This Month: December 2016

Five years ago this month...

...I reviewed On the Road. I didn't like it very much but it's one of the books from The List that I'm happy I experienced for myself. I was much too old to read it for the first time.

...I looked back at December 2011. I'd had pneumonia (and a break up I didn't mention) and reviewed The Parasites, and possibly planned to attend the Calgary Expo for the first time the following year. Ah, youth. 

...I reviewed The Stone Angel. I'm sure I'll be revisiting this book in the future, and I should give Margaret Laurence a few more shots as well, because it was great, and has a lot to say about aging and regret, or lack thereof.

...I did my 3rd Annual 12hppofxmas readathon. Here are all of the posts:

...I was distracted. It was the Christmas season! I am always distracted and/or reading a ton during that time, and 2016 was no different.

I guess I made at least one Christmas present, too!
