2021 Reading Round Up

As the year draws to a close, I thought I’d go back through my e-reader and see how much I’ve read. I know my reading took off in July with the start of my new commute (all public transit, reading was safe). This doesn’t count the five unpublished novels I beta read and the countless sections of bigger works I read for my writing groups.

Anything I read sound interesting to you? Check them out at your local library, indie bookstore, or wherever you get your books.  I have reviews up for many, but not all, so this post helped me realize I have a ton more books I can talk about!
