My 2021 Montage: A "Best Of" Screenplay of My Favorite Books This Year

a "best of" script of the books I loved

INT. MY BRAIN - THE SUNDAY BEFORE THE FIRST MONDAY IN JANUARY 2022 - 11 P.M.

Despite not doing anything for the last two weeks besides watch Disney+ on my parents’ couch, I too understand you’re probably coming out on the other side of your December “Best Of” list burnout.

This year has brought changes (this newsletter didn’t exist, and some of you may remember that time fondly). A book. Two jobs to end a 9-month unemployment stint. A new apartment (with new four-legged roommates :) they’re late on rent, though).

So instead of just giving you a list of books and TV shows and movies and saying, “here, trust me” when some of you might wonder “why would I trust someone who lets the mice push her over on rent deadlines??”, I will throw you in the scene where I consumed the recs.
