Books of January

[venetia_sassy]

Odd to think that this time last year bushfires were raging, we were checking the Fires Near Me app regularly and were wearing masks when we went out to prevent being choked by the smoke.

Now, it's horrifically humid, very few fires, wearing different masks to leave the house due to a virus we hadn't even heard of back then. Wheee.

I can safely say that my body doesn't like this summer any better than the last one but I have been able to read which is a Good Thing.

Underline: Greatly enjoyed; highly recommend.
Strikethrough: Did not like; do not recommend.
#Meh# It was okay; had some good points but I'm not keeping it.
