It’s the last #literaryfriday of 2013. Pause for sadness. Ok, I’m alright now. Because next #literaryfriday- the new year will be just beginning- and we’ll still be loving our resolutions. And life will be good.
1. Deep South Mag– for this week’s #literaryfriday looks back over the year of 2013 Arts and Lit news. And, oh what a year it has been! From interviewing Shirley Ann Grau, to tearing down Tara, to debuting 2 stellar Reading Lists, and more- Deep South Mag was THE spot for #southernlit news.
2. Books Speak Volumes is counting down the days to #JazzAgeJanuary! Want to join in? Just use Mr. Linky at BSV- and make January all about the jazz age. I might need to brush up on my Jazz Age language before I go to the speakeasy 😉
3. Want to participate in a GREAT blog hop? You do, you totally do (I can just tell these things!) Get thee over there to Closed The Cover for New Year New Authors blog hop! Hurry- it begins December 31st!
4. I’m still toying with ya’lls emotions- but trust- some good things are coming to Traveling With T in January!
5. My #fridayreads- I just finished UNLEASHING MR. DARCY by Teri Wilson. Trying to decide if I should start TAKEDOWN 20 by Janet Evanovich next or THE GOLDFINCH by Donna Tartt, What are you reading?
Happy Reading!
Traveling With T 
I’m so excited about Jazz Age January! I’m only planning to read one, maybe two, books but one of them is the follow up to Rules of Civility by Amor Towles, which is one of my favorite Jazz Age books.
I’m excited as well! I’m def reading CALL ME ZELDA by Erika Robuck. Which I can’t wait to read as it’s been sitting on my TBR list for too long!
I HAVE NOT read Rules of Civility (but I remember you talking about it!) and IF I can fit in 1 more for Jazz Age- that may be the one.
If you can fit another one in, it MUST be that one!
That’ll def be the 1 (if I can fit another in between review reading/Unofficial Booktopia Reading- I have 2 CHUNKSTERS to read (The Son and The Goldfinch).
I looked over Leah’s suggestions- and really Call Me Zelda was the only 1 that really appealed to me (I’d already read The Other Typist). I was considering reading The Wife, The Maid, & The Mistress (but I think it’s actually set in the 30’s as opposed to the 20’s).
