  3. I linked to my Goodreads review, because I DO have a blog, but don't keep up with reviews over there nearly as well as on Goodreads.

  4. Finished Room With a View two nights ago. It was OK. Feels like all my reading is in the same place right now.

  5. It was a tough choice between One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest or Brave New World.

  6. Some books stay with you and open your eyes to the experience of others whose challenges are very different from your own. This is such a book. If I lived in Australia I would have known Alan Marshall was not only a great and beloved writer but also a great humanitarian. Reading really is a doorway to the universe.

  7. I read My Antonia for this category. A nice slow, thoughtful read.

  8. I read The Phantom Tollbooth for this category. Not sure how I missed this great book when I was a kid, but I sure enjoyed reading it with my son! https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/3684758871

  10. I read Letters From Father Christmas for this category. It is a collection of letters that JRR Tolkien wrote to his children as Father Christmas from 1920-1943. They are wonderful and include great drawings as well. It really is more of a glorified picture book, which I didn't realize before I got the book. I've also included my review of The Tower Treasure (The Hardy Boys #1) for this category in case the Christmas one is disqualified.
