December - well, it's not going to pick itself. What do you want to read?

Erin is being done by Talking Volumes. We try to do different things.

The other two are authors high on my list to get to chat with us. Also considering Family Fang, Turn of Mind, Dickens, something holiday like Lamb? Something with a willing author, willing to talk to us, hopefully.

Turn of Mind by Alice LaPlante is December's pick! I think Chanhassen will love it and hopefully the rest of us, too.

I have 2013 ideas being cooked up like Gone Girl, Mr. Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore, and many others. 2012 was a blast. Let's close it out in style.

I have picked Jan and Feb. They are both video chats with authors.

Susan Orlean - Rin Tin Tin for Jan
Carol Anshaw - Carry the One for Feb
