Late year books

I've been reading quick ones since this time of year is so stressful for me. Here are some notes on a few of them:

The Elementals by Francesca Lia Block

• Her most recent books are a lot different in tone from the older ones. That's fine, but strange to witness. I don't know.

A Midwinter's Tail by Sofie Kelly

• my first cozy mystery. It was cozy all right.


• Lots of hot chocolate


• the villain wanted to save the cat, lol

Nicholas Knock and Other People by Dennis Lee

• a bunch of trippy childrens poems from the 70's


• some set in Toronto


• trippy

Snowed In by Rachel Hawthorne

• Don't really read much YA that focuses on romance. Was kind of cute though. It was set on the island where Somewhere in Time was filmed.

The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupery

• I understand why so many people love it.
