While I’m sure we are all ready to usher in 2021 - it has to be better, right? - I thought I’d share a few ‘best of’ lists that I’ve found over the past few days:

Best of television: The Times, The Atlantic, The AV Club, and many others have published their best of 2020 television lists. For me, I really enjoyed Mrs. America, The Great, Vikings, and The Watchmen (although this technically didn’t come out in 2020…). I’m currently watching The Flight Attendant and really loving it.

Best of books: Reading was more challenging this year - it was just harder to concentrate. Some of my favorites include American Dirt, A Women is No Man, Rodham, and The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. Here are lists from Time, NPR, and Kirkus.

Happy Holidays!
