As we prepare to bid farewell to the year, as well as wrapping up our 2021 reading challenges, we bookworms are also busy planning our 2022 reading challenges. I’m setting myself a target of 20 new books to read on Goodreads in addition to the 15 individual challenges below. Reader, enjoy.

In Loving Memory of Bob the Bichon (2007-2019)
A lover of life, the Brontës, and Haworth who knows that I’m just going to write because I can’t help it.
By Nicola F. a.k.a. The Brontë Babe.
Thanks for reading. I’d love it if you stopped by The Journal of Juvenilia Studies where you can read my essay, “Autobiography, Wish-Fulfilment, and Juvenilia. The ‘Fractured Self’ in Charlotte Brontë’s Paracosmic Counterworld”.
Tales of the Genii (edited by myself) is now available from The Crow Emporium – click here to buy.

Looks like a great list! I haven’t been reading much recently so need to get back into it. X

I’m currently reading Anna Karenina, well the English translation anyway! Now that is what I call a classic novel, absolutely superb by one of the true masters. Just wrote a blog on my own site which is a book review of Clare McNally’s horror novel ‘Ghost Light.’ It’s not a new book: came out in the early eighties but it’s a novel I return to again and again.
