Monthly Inventory: December 2020

December 2020 I think the month of December 2020 really encapsulated for me what a crap year it was for reading (and blogging). I only read 4 books the entire month (though I had 2 others “started” but sitting on my bedside table collecting dust) — I used to read that many books in a …

Monthly Inventory: November 2020
