Just popping in quickly to wish you all a Merry Christmas! As you may know, I’ve been home in California for the last few days and it’s been so wonderful to see my family and spend time with them. I’ve taken a step back from everything and have been relaxing, reading, watching movies, and playing games with the family.
I can’t believe how quickly 2013 flew by and I’m curious to see what 2014 will bring. Thank you so much to all you lovely people out there who read my blog and I can’t wait to see where this blog will go next year!

![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.

Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
[P.S. This is an old photo that includes a HarperCollins UK title, but please note that I support the HarperCollins Union.]
