After all, it’s still a surprise what I get since my lists tend to be awfully long and they just pick a couple of books …

I got lucky and discovered a couple of amazing authors this year! …

I have no idea why I’m actually still doing these lists, since I generally never read more than two of the books I put on them. Oh well, at least its fun! I’m planning on reading quite a lot of novels that suggest cold in one way or another …
