I have said this before, but I really am essentially a Hobbit at heart. Let me stay and be comfortable with my books, family, and dogs (sure, going to work, too because of FOMOW). My wife, despite my best efforts, is not. She likes to travel, go places, sight-see, and other things that require one to be not-in-your-own-home. So for the second time in as many years (but only the third time in the last eight), we’re on vacation this week.
In an effort to “be present” and “pay attention to my wife” and other things you should imagine me stressing the air quotes around, I’m leaving my laptop at home and won’t be blogging or writing. So what’s going to happen here?
Some time back, I asked for volunteers to provide some guest posts for the week. I asked them one simple question: What are your All-Time Desert Island Top 5 books? (at least, what’s today’s version of that?) Say as little or as much about them as you want. Over the next week or so, I’m going to bring you those answers from Authors/Creators and Bloggers/Podcasters/etc. Some adhered closely to the rules, and some broke them (in interesting ways). Most of them included books I didn’t expect—some only included books I wouldn’t have expected. I trust that, like me, you’ll find the results intriguing. Hopefully, your TBR lists/piles grow as a result of this.
Here’s who you should expect to see sound off about their favorites:
