So relieved to know you're not giving up blogging! Missed you after Diversiverse ended! I need to start writing blog posts while I'm still reading a book, I think, because as soon as I finish one book, I start on the next, and no longer feel like writing about the last one!Laurie Chttp://baystatera.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-15527705103385520222015-12-21T18:26:31.298-06:002015-12-21T18:26:31.298-06:00Hey lady, I have missed you!

(PS I still miss Google Reader because I am an old curmudgeon lady who hates change.)<br /><br />I got out of the habit of writing reviews this month, and I'm having a hard time getting back into it for posts to be scheduled for January. I just finished Wolf Hall and I just feel like I have nothinnnnnng to say about it. But I'll figure it out. I hope you find a magical and glorious book to pull you out of not-finishing things. I hope it's something that changes your life like you're a teenager. :DJenny @ Reading the Endhttp://readingtheend.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-15399733394517739332015-12-20T17:15:38.388-06:002015-12-20T17:15:38.388-06:00I love this post so much, and I love this series s...I love this post so much, and I love this series so much, and I love reading your thoughts so much. Speaking of The Feels. I love what you wrote here and I feel this not only in books but from watching the world this year: "even if the world really is terrible, some people work so hard to make it better."Andihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05220718933942181809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-49611471935307774122015-12-19T23:14:25.979-06:002015-12-19T23:14:25.979-06:00It's good to see a post from you!

It wouldn't feel right not to have you around for The Raven King later this year :) I think, for me, blogging isn't really about saying anything new or making a big splash but about making room for conversation, and that's why I keep at it. But sometimes life gets in the way--I've had tremendous distractions these last two months, and that's kept my blog pretty quiet and my reading slow and noncommittal, but it's reassuring to know that the blog and the community will still be there when I have the brain space for it.<br /><br />Someday I'll get around to finishing the Tiffany Aching series. I enjoyed the first two books but haven't managed to find time for the rest.

I've missed you around, too, but boy do I know those reading ruts that you're talking about, where nothing is right and everything is completely put-downable. <br /><br />But I'm a firm believer that there's no point in doing a blog like this if it's not for the pleasure of it. Which means you pop in when you want to, and toss out casual comments when you want to, and talk about your rut if that's what you want to do. I'll be here reading whenever you turn up!LibraryHungryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01981967495068772927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-61073905871791525022015-12-18T10:00:18.970-06:002015-12-18T10:00:18.970-06:00I don't know how anyone could not read more in...I don't know how anyone could not read more into this book than was on the pages. It's just going to happen and we're all going to feel a million times sadder and a million times more nostalgic than the actual story warrants (except for the first chapter, of course ... argh! sob again!) I am fairly certain that I don't have anyone in my daily life that I can discuss this book and all its feels with so it makes me appreciate my blogging friends even more. All of this to say, you have definitely been missed and please don't go!Kristen M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02335598194501733541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7343567357202223317.post-991702376399845792015-12-18T01:54:16.643-06:002015-12-18T01:54:16.643-06:00Yes, this, so much. I've missed you too, and I...Yes, this, so much. I've missed you too, and I value the things we've shared over the years so much. And this book actually got me thinking about that too - human connection and community and how for me that's a part of fighting for a better world. This comment is completely incoherent, but I'm going to hit "publish" anyway and trust that you know what I mean. Ana S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16092495983972185943noreply@blogger.com
