Hiya Bookworms, I don’t know how other folks out there go about choosing their books, but often when I finish an audio book, I’m at loose ends as to what to try next.

2020 Weekly Wrap-Up: The Fifth
Greetings My Dearest Bookworms, It’s time to tell you all about the books I poured into my brain this week. I’m a little astonished that I’ve been reading so much lately, especially given the toddler running around my house.
