Goodbye January!
It's hard to believe we're already a month into the year.
We've been hard at work with homeschool and our reading goals. It's been chillier than usual and we haven't been on many hikes so far this new year, but we did get plenty of great new reads in!
I'm not as active here, although I am still trying to keep up with my reviews. There's just a lot going on in my life right now and I can't spend as much time writing as I'd like. If anyone is still reading my posts, hello and I greatly appreciate you! I hope you're reading all the best books!
You can follow what I'm reading at Bookstagram, Goodreads (includes our KidLit reads,) and StoryGraph [username; stacyrenee] (does not include our KidLit reads.)
Back to January.
I finished reading 9 books this month,
including 1 nonfiction audiobook, 1 book of poetry, and 2 graphic novels.
