Happy New Year everyone! Before the afterglow of List Season 2019 wears off, I figured it’d be helpful – for those of you who don’t feel like watching me talk for 45 minutes straight – to round up all of my 2019 lists in one place. After all, the whole point of List Season is to turn you guys onto anything you might’ve missed the previous year, and the early January lull that we’re in right now is a perfect time to catch up!
Compiled here for your convenience are all five of my year-end lists for 2019. Here’s to a great year and I can’t wait to do this all over again in another 12 months!
