http://pixielit.blogspot.com/2012/12/my-2012-reading-year.html
Tuesday, December 18, 2012. My 2012 reading year. Two of the best books penned by women I read during 2012 were Blue Nights. By Joan Didion and I Was Told There’d Be Cake. By Sloane Crosley. Both had been recommended to me by a number of sources, and I finally got my hands on them after the Melbourne International Writers Festival. Reading Blue Nights. Was a revelation: how have I lived. 8211; particularly as a non-fiction writer – without having read Didion’s work before? Want to be her? David Malouf) &...

Pixie Lit: Reading JK...
http://pixielit.blogspot.com/2012/11/reading-jk.html
Friday, November 2, 2012. My amazo BF gave me a Kindle for my birthday and I immediately downloaded JK Rowling's new novel. This worked out for me because a) it was cheaper than buying a hard copy and b) you can't tell how long it is in electronic form (normally I can't be bothered reading books over 400 pages.this one was about 500).
