November 2019 TBR
We made it to November! Even though October flew by, I was pretty happy with my reading for the month. (See my Wrap-Up here.) I won’t be setting my goals as high for November since I’m participating in Nanowrimo. But I am a rule-breaker this year. Instead of starting a new project from scratch, I’ll …
