Tracy (tracyisreading) | 2573 comments April Update!!!!

Emily!! I have been reading and enjoying so many books this year! For April, not so much, LOL. I kind of fell off during quarantine with trying to adjust to distance learning with 2nd and 4th graders and the introduction to Tiger King...which led to Waco... which led to 3 seasons of Ozark. Time to get back to the books!!

Um. I still think you read a lot of books this month, even if it is less than previous months. You're killing it!

Tracy (tracyisreading) | 2573 comments May Update!!!!

Disclaimer: I have started doubling down on challenges to finish my ATY project first, after that I'll go back and work on original choices, they've just been harder to come by with the library closed. I was managing to fit in side reads anyways ( thanks GoT), so I have multiple categories where I've read more than one book.

Isn't it. I love looking at cover collages. I feel like we should have a separate thread for them.
