December Top Five:
1) Favorite Book: Just One Day by Gayle Forman - LOVE, LOVE this book! I wouldn't expect anything less from Gayle Forman.
2) Biggest Disappointment: Cinders & Sapphires by Leila Rasheed- I thought it was mildly entertaining, but ultimately, it fell flat for me.
3) Biggest Surprise: The Selection by Kiera Cass- I have read so many mixed reviews for this book, but was pleasantly surprised by how entertained I was. Maybe it's because I am a secret die hard fan of The Bachelor...So embarrassing.
4) Favorite Post: 2012 End of Year Book Survey
5) Favorite Part of December: Baby D's first Christmas was a blast!

ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to reading Just One Day. I've only heard positive things about it so far. Sorry that Cinders and Sapphires was a disappointment. I liked it (though it had flaws and isn't as good as the Luxe series).
This time of year always goes so quickly. I'm a little sad that it is over but now I hope I can eat healthy again too. I definitely overdid it with the sweets!
So glad you loved JUST ONE DAY! Makes me even more eager to finish my copy.
ReplyDeleteHope you and your family had a lovely Christmas and New Year's :)
