BEST photo ever! (the first one) makes me want to swap some spit with my dog right now.
Is that weird? Not to a fellow dog owner, right?
I love my dog too but no swapping spit (I KNOW where his tongue has been). I would however cuddle on the couch with him and kiss his nose a million times and tell him he's the cutest puppy ever :)
Love that pic, too. They both look so happy.
My first book's best seller status and the deal on my second one were both really awesome.
And that's not you in the dog suit is it?
I loved Anna Dressed In Blood and I at to read The Girl of Fire and Thorns. Good picks!
I only read Ruta's book. Those others I either own or are on my wish list.
I enjoyed my debut and the bit of travelling I did for it.
Thanks for dropping by the bookish mama! What an interesting life you must lead with dog sledding which is absolutely foreign to me. :) Happy New Year!
Love that photo! :)
Terry, I'm glad you had such a wonderful year. I still have your book on my shelf to read. My year was a bit off for many reasons, but I'm hoping for normalcy next year.
The Girl of Fire and Thorns was an amazing book! And anything by Carrie Ryan is sure to be a hit. Thanks for sharing your favourites! (And love that photo!)
Great photos! It sounds like you had a good 2011.
My favorite reads of the year are probably Chime and Daughter of Smoke and Bone. 2011 also had some great trips. Now, on to 2012!
