Yep, that happens. I got my D author because I had to read a book set in W VA for the 50 states challenge.

Love when you can multitask challenges like that!

I have a book, just need to sit down and read it - if it were an audiobook it wouldn't be a problem! Just hard to read when the hubby is home, he's not a reader. We have more snow forecast for Monday so hopefully then if not before. 🤞🏼
