Hi LaurLa,
I had good intentions but only got 1 1/2 books from the picks read this month: The Overdue Life of Amy Byler and I am halfway through . I will definitely get to the others on the list eventually because they look SO good! I just couldn't get a lot of them done within the month. Thank you for such good picks.

Glad you found somethings you liked. I love this challenge because of all the new authors I get exposed to every month. Bless the library gremlins who created Hoopla and Libby or I would be floundering while my local library gets rebuilt. TWO years😭😢😳🤯🤬😵‍💫😓😥🤬😢😭🥺☹️🫠🙄
