5 Most Popular Posts: December 2015










  1. “The 13 Best Novels of the Year.” How many people clicked, liked, and/or tweeted this list? We can’t even count that high. Do you really care about our opinions that much, or are you just messing with us?

  2. Poetry Exemplars. Once again, Grace Cavalieri proves she’s a couplet-fueled force to be reckoned with.

  3. “2015 Holiday Gift Guide.” Shanna Wilson threw a lifeline to you last-minute shoppers (and you know who you are) with this well-curated list of titles worth giving.

  4. A review of The Muralist by B.A. Shapiro. M.K. Tod, herself a historical-fiction novelist, gave a thoughtful account of this tale, set largely during WWII, and readers responded.

  5. A review of Sailor and Fiddler: Reflections of a 100-Year-Old Author by Herman Wouk. David Bruce Smith’s critique of the centenarian’s new memoir drew scores of readers eager to learn more about the legendary writer’s life.
