Happy Wednesday, fellow reading addicts!
Another wonderful week is upon us. Last week ended on a weird note and started on one too. Two nights of severe storms—winds gusting up to 91mph on Friday night—made for a lot of work this weekend cleaning up tree damage. Luckily, no house damage and we lost power for a few hours, but other than that, everything was fine.
But I did get to read a bok while waiting for power to come back up. Small wins, am I right?
Check out the selection of books below, and as always, reviews are appreciated!
Enjoy and happy reading!
