Friday Reads: 'Tis The Season. Yes It 'Tis.

Hey, it’s December. How did that happen?

As Jason Isbell once sang, this year was a son-of-a-bitch for nearly everyone we know. But I still find myself grateful beyond measure for the mercies and fortune and grace I have been shown.

There’s a lot more I could say, but I’m also entering the final push for the novel I’m writing right now.1 So today, all I can offer is a little help buying books for your friends and family as we approach the holidays.

I’ve got a gift guide for what I liked this year up at Amazon if you need ideas. You can buy through Amazon or you can print the list out and go merrily to your local bookshop, either one.2

Be good to each other. Take care of yourselves. And let’s hope for more light and peace in the year to come.

And as always, your book recs and reviews are welcome in the comments.
