Happy New Year! I hope 2020 has wonderful things in store for you all.
I’m spending time with my family today and enjoying having my daughter home from college until late January. But I wanted to take some time to share with you my favorites of the 25 books I read last year.
In 2020, I hope to read more, and more widely. I’ve been missing WWII historical fiction, and I also want to make my way through the pile of Jill Mansell and Karen White books on my shelf. I also hope to finish the first draft of my novel; I’m at around 25,000 words so far.
Have you made any plans for the coming year? I’d also love to know what your favorite books from last year were or what’s on your 2020 reading list.
I also want to thank you all for visiting my blog. I love sharing my love of reading with my fellow bookaholics, and I hope you know how much you all mean to me. I wish you all a fantastic 2020!
Love,
Anna
Happy New Year to you and your family!

I loved Nefarious, too. And, yay, Rational Creatures made your list, Anna. I like your goal of more WWII fiction. I joined the Historical Fiction challenge to help encourage me to read more HF, too. My favorite Austenesque this year was The Colonel by Beau North.
Enjoy your daughter’s homecoming and your new year, Anna!

Anna, thanks for liking The Mist of Her Memory enough to put Janet Taylor’s fantastic cover on this page. Woo-hoo! Of the others, I’ve only had time to read Nefarious (because I couldn’t help myself) and it’s amazing, and another JT cover. The others’ reputations are stellar, so to be on this list is Woo-hoo! Did I say that already? Woo-hoo!

I’ve read four of those and really loved them! Journey home to Pemberley, Nefarious, The Mist of her Memory and Rational Creatures!
I’m very impressed with people who can pick a few favourites as I really struggle. There are so many great books out there!

Thanks so much for sharing, Anna! I’m not surprised to see Nefarious and Rational Creatures on your list – both were favorites for me too! I’m hoping to start The Journey Home to Pemberley in a few days, so glad it was one you praised highly!
Wishing you many wonderful reads in 2020!
