Happy Sunday! If you celebrate Christmas I hope you had a great one, and in any case I hope you had a nice New Year's but that week between Christmas and New Year's is special and now we're at the tail end. I went back to Boston for the holiday and a had a nice visit.
Now I'm back in NYC and settling back in. For the first time in forever I didn't ask for any books for Christmas but I did buy a few here and there; one of my favorite used bookstores, Raven Used Books in Harvard Square, changed locations from a dim basement to a sunny street-level shop and business was brisk when we visited. I picked up an Everyman's Library edition of J.G. Farrell's Troubles and The Siege of Krishnapur in a single volume, and Happy People in Tears, by Joao de Melo, about a large Portuguese family.
I don't know what today holds. I don't even know if I'm having coffee or a cappuccino with my breakfast. But I'll probably be reading. What about you?

My husband and I are trying to get our house ready to list by Friday so even though I really want to curl up and read all day, I'm going to have to clean and stuff. Ugh. It'll be worth it once our house sells though! Have a great day!
I am glad you had a nice visit to Boston, Marie. We're having a rather quiet day today. My daughter isn't feeling too well and after two very busy days, it's nice to have one quiet one before I have to be back at work.
Whatever you do today, I hope it's a good one! Enjoy your week!
