HOOKED by Asako Yuzuki, transl Polly Barton—that fine line b/w friendship and obsession, between a lonely reader whose life appears perfect and a housewife blogging her raw, unfiltered lifestyle. It makes you think, and the food descriptions are delicious. Great read so far!

I am still reading GOOD SPIRITS by B. K. Borison, a Christmas Carol retelling, where a handsome ghost of the Christmas past haunts a kind, young lady who is anything but the opposite of Mr. Scrooge. I had hoped to finish it in Dec, but here we are with half read books from last year. It's cozy!!

Title: Who should you get to represent your book? Elvish warrior or Literary agent A large venn diagram of two overlapping ovals. In the Elvish warrior's section: 1. Can talk to trees and sense evil 2. Possesses an enchanted Blade 3. Centuries of experience In the central overlap section for both: 1. Trusted And honest advisor 2. Protection From cutpurses and brigands 3. Loyal companion In the Literary Agent's section: 1. Good Relationships With publishers 2. Great eye For contracts 3. Pays For lunch Tip: if possible, get both. But if forced to choose, lunch probably swings it for the agent.
