November Reading Wrap-Up

November. You were the 2016th-iest of all the months, weren't you? But hey, there was Thanksgiving and that's always fun because food is delicious and there were puppies.
They were all interested in something just to the side of me
Let's focus on the stats

Not 80% from last month but hey, not too shabby
Danse Macabre was published in 1981 so hey, published before 2000
China Rich Girlfriend is by a non-white AND non-American guy so double win

Alright, December. Be better. For reading but also just in general.

Puppies! And yes, they do always seem interested in something off to the side, don't they?

I think this is an excellent book list, especially considering how utterly crappy November turned out to be.

They were super interested in me right up to the moment I took the picture. I think it was on purpose
BUT WILL DECEMBER BE BETTER ALLEY WILL IT

I do not know. At least it will contain Christmas. I am moving to jettison all December activities that do not spark joy, and I have high hopes of not murdering anyone at all throughout the entirety of the month. We'll see how things unfold. Meanwhile, I want Alice to host a readalong of Tristram Shandy. Have you read Tristram Shandy? Maybe we should read Tristram Shandy.

I have hope for Dec cos of Xmas. Please don't let me down.

I have not read Tristram Shandy and would be 100% up for readalong. Really I'm up for any of our readalongs as long as there are gifs.
It's such a silly book: perfectly gif-appropriate. GL with your readalong!
That you for the gif-appreciation. Hope you are hitting all your reading goals!
