Happy Friday, readers, and welcome to all you new Bidwell Hollow subscribers. Each Friday I email a roundup of the best book lists for the week. This week’s lists are below.
All these year-end lists have me wondering, what book did you most enjoy reading this year? Enter your answer here. Or, if you’re a paid subscriber, you can comment on this blog post with your answer. I’ll share everyone’s responses in next week’s book list email.
In the meantime, Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah! 🎄🕎
Thanks for reading,
Nick
By the way, paid subscriptions go into effect Feb. 10, 2020. Starting then, only paid subscribers will receive literary stories on Mondays and Thursdays. Subscriptions are $5/month or $50/year. Your card won’t be charged until Feb. 10. Subscribe now so you don’t miss out.
Or, give Bidwell Hollow to someone you know. Now through Christmas, all gift subscriptions are 20 percent off. That’s $40 for a year’s worth of Bidwell Hollow’s literary stories, a total of 104 articles.
