From Nicole Galland, author of Revenge of the Rose, The Fool’s Tale and the forthcoming Crossed.
What was the best book of the year?
I’m a bit partial to REVENGE OF THE ROSE, but THE IRAQ STUDY GROUP REPORT (James A. Baker, III, Lee H. Hamilton, et al) probably made more of a splash.
I’m about a year behind in my personal reading so all my other responses would be out of date, but A DIRTY JOB by Christopher Moore gets my vote.
What was the best movie?
Little Miss Sunshine
Who was the person of the year?
The American voter, who remembered that a democratically elected government requires his/her participation, and acted accordingly.
What is your New Year’s resolution?
To question all of my long-standing assumptions about pretty much everything. And to take a 6,000-mile road trip with my husband-to-be without us killing each other.
