Looking Ahead…

I thought I’d compile a list of books I’d like to read in 2013. Who knows if I’ll actually get around to reading these—you know what they say about the best laid plans of mice and men. But, just for fun, here’s my list:

Thinking in Pictures by Temple Grandin
There Are No Children Here by Alex Kotlowitz
Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys
Kindred by Octavia Butler
Summer Sisters by Judy Blume
Speaking Likenesses by Christina Rossetti
Frankenstein by Mary Shelley
Bound for Canaan by Fergus Bordewich
Roots by Alex Haley
Maud Martha by Gwendolyn Brooks
Atonement by Ian McEwan

I’d also like to write more about food and cinema (I think the word “cinema” sounds a bit classier than “movies”). We’ll see. Que será será, as they say.
