If Obama made a list, so can I

2018, we hardly knew thee.

365 days, 52 weeks and 12 months later, we've forgotten about her already.

My dear 2018, let me take a moment to reflect on some of the gems you brought into my world.

You know when you know you've forgotten something? ... yep, I'm feeling that right now. I know there's some more iconic books, music, film and tv that I really loved in 2018... but as soon as the clock ticked midnight a whole lot of 2018 instantly became a blur.

Let me know if I missed a 2018 classic!
