Booklist 2010

[beelikej]

Hello flist. This used to be my sort of comment-to-be-added-sticky-post, now it's my readinglist and final post of 2010!

Hope you are all having a wonderful New Year's Eve. I'm celebrating it at my mom's. She is working until midnight and I'm all alone until then, but she left me food and instructions in her kitchen, so I'll survive;) Ooh, her house is very warm and snuggly plus it smells like cinnamon and vanilla, it's awesome.

I'm going to enjoy that dinner now and I will then update this post with my last bookreviews for the year.

Best wishes and hugs to you all!

J.
