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.

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!

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.
