Though it’s only September, I’m already thinking about how I’ve spent 2012. Fall lends itself to those sorts of musings, I think — especially when I have a pumpkin spice latte in hand (will be getting one of those later today, have no fear). And since I’m never without a book, that introspection means I’m thinking about reading.
Everyone had fun with this bookish meme earlier in the summer but, as always, I’m behind the times! To complete the thoughts, I used only the books I’ve read in 2012 — and pulled the prompts from Wordsmithonia and Roof Beam Reader.
And yes, I’m totally Bossypants. Could be my middle name.

Hah, I somehow totally missed this meme too!
That was too cool. I love your Beautiful Ruins answer.
I definitely felt like that in my late 20s too.
I have the creativity of a piece of mud, so I have never attempted this meme. I love your answers! I fear unfamiliar fishes too! Just not the Sarah Vowell ones.
This meme is so much fun to do and also read other responses. Also I didn’t know you’d read several books on that list. I guess I missed the reviews somehow so now I’ll have to go back and read your reviews!
Oooh, very fun! You made me sputter my coffee at Bossypants — that, too, could be my middle name!!
These are fun. Heh, I’d like some cupcake advice! I missed this meme but did one similar last year called My Life as a Book over at Pop Culture Nerd.
Haha! I’m planning on cheating and waiting up to the end of the year to do this one so that I’ll have more choices! I love how you fit Bossypants and How to Eat a Cupcake in there!
Loved the meme! By the way, after reading your review of it, I bought Fifth Avenue, 5 am for my best friend on her birthday. She loves it! Am getting myself a copy, too. I need to get my hands on Bossypants too.

I have this meme saved for a raininy day and I chose Bossypants too
I think Birthday Pie sounds like an awesome way to go.
