It's That Time of Year…

The “best of the best” lists are coming out in droves (as usual).  These lists usually have many of the same suspects on them with a little variation and that is what I like.  Making sure I get my hands on all the heavy hitters of the year.  Especially this year as having a new job has throw a curve into my reading schedule (I’m so tired when I get home!). So without further ado, here are some of the list that have already been published that I’ll be using to fill up my reading time over the holidays.  I’m hoping to add to this list so that I can keep all these resources in one place.  Enjoy! And if you know of any other great 2016 lists, please let me know!
