These
are my highlights of 2014. They weren’t
necessarily new this year; they were just new to me.
Best
Book: A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness,
Ill. by Jim Kay (see post earlier this year).
Best
TV show: Outlander (Gorgeously shot on location in Scotland, it has everything
I love in a story – history, time-slip, adventure, romance and the added bonus
of Sam Heughen as Jamie Fraser. Thank
you Foxtel for switching channel numbers around in November so I could happily,
inadvertently, stumble upon this.)
Best
Movie: The Fault in Our Stars (This is one of those memorable movies that makes
you laugh and cry at the same time. Read what I thought of the book here.)
Best
Song: Unfortunately it was played to
death on the radio, as good songs often are, but after complaining about a
dearth of love songs, I have to pick Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran.
Best wishes to one and all for a great year in 2015.
