What is on your reading list this month?

Have you given yourself permission to take it easy, as the year comes to a close?

Or, as we race the clock to 2016, are you trying to stuff as many books into your brain as possible?

I am still doing the latter, albeit at a slower pace compared to November.

The other difference between this month and last is that I am currently committed to reading lighter fare.

Since 1st December, I’ve finished:

• Fantasy Femmes of Sixties Cinema by Tom Lesanti
• Busted by Thomas J. Craughwell

I’m in the midst of reading:

• Black Women of the Harlem Renaissance Era Edited by Lean’Tin L. Bracks and Jessie Carney Smith
• Literary Rogues: A Scandalous History of Wayward Authors by Andrew Shaffer

To Be Read by 31 December:

• The Life of Saul Bellow: To Fame and Fortune, 1915-1964 by Zachary Leader
• Effie: The Passionate Lives of Effie Gray, John Ruskin and John Everett Millais by Suzanne Fagence Cooper
• My Golden Flying Years by Air Commodore D’Arcy Greig
• The Mind of the Artist by Laurence Binyon

Effie Gray Ruskin by George Frederic Watts, 1851.
