What a great year of reading you had!
ReplyDeleteI'm very pleased with my year of reading, Helen. 2023 shows promise, too!
DeleteNot only quite a few 5 star reads but you got all those reviews done! That's awesome. I missed your initial review of Wintering and sorry to hear that was not a good one. I keep hearing it's such a great book so I'm curious to read your thoughts. Well they can't all be 5 star reads right? Anyway, here's to lots of great books this year!
ReplyDeleteIliana, I've really made a point of reviewing my books shortly after I finish them. If I don't, then I fall behind and forget what I want to say about the plot & characters. It's much easier staying on top of reviews now that I'm no longer working.
