Literature This month I managed to read not just one, but two books for the 1962 Club - though I blogged about only one of them. I also read two forthcoming releases by authors I've enjoyed in the past. Around the World got a nod, as did my Spiritual Memoir challenge. Plus a biography of … Continue reading Month in Review: October 2023
Literature I only finished five books this month, though one of them was actually four books in one.

I have already read 4 books from my list and most of them were outstanding. I've added some extra books as well as some … Continue reading Month in Review: June 2023

In the meantime, I am enjoying my month of Reading the Theatre along … Continue reading Blog break
