Michelle’s comments from the Still in a relationship with my last book... group.

Hi guys!

If you follow me on any other form of social media, you've probably seen my Penguin Holiday Hotline posts, but basically Penguin employees are giving out book recommendations for the holiday season. It's supposed to be for gift recommendations, but you can totally ask for a recommendation for yourself!

I'm not recommending books because I'm coordinating the emails/requests, but I've been reading through some of them and they're all really amazing and thought out.

Here's the link: http://www.penguin.com/penguinhotline/

Jane Eyre is my favorite book ever, so I'd be down to read it again (for the third time). I'm a little embarrassed to say that I haven't yet read Gone Girl. I also feel the need to read The Good Lord Bird since it won the National Book Award. I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Hi fellow book lovers!

You may already know about this or it might be a publishing business secret (I didn't know about it until I started working at Penguin), but there's a twice weekly newsletter that Shelf Awareness does for readers. Here's a link if you want to sign up: http://www.shelf-awareness.com/xs/reg... It has book reviews and other book news and I end up adding at least a book or two to my to-read list after reading each newsletter.

I finished! I thought the beginning was a bit slow but by the end I couldn't put it down.
