2025 Reading Challenge discussion

Chetara's Reading Corner - 2019

So, I reviewed what I did in 2018 and I failed my objective. So, let's try this again for 2019 and see what happens. Reach for something different outside my comfort zone and/or interests (for ex. graphic novels, manga, comics, fantasy...).

"Life is an adventure and Your participation is required."
