Sarah, I thought so too. And almost done! Getting ready to make a cup of tea and read for a while.

Julie, nice to see you here again! I’m always tilting my head at odd angles to see what other people are reading, but I hardly ever plan beyond the next book. I’d love to know what’s on your reading/rereading list for this winter.

Darrelyn, I look forward to reading The Gathering a second time as well. I have so many underlined passages.

Good luck getting it all done.

Or, in this case, my rereading list.

The Gathering is one of my favorite novels. I’ve read it twice and am sure I’ll read it again and again.
