Mountain born, prairie dwelling. Doing my best.
Rounded out the year at 121 books. When I started, I was hoping I might hit 150, but by mid-year it was pretty obvious that wasn't going to happen. 🤓

May presented the challenge of what to do with a short story that is e-published as a stand alone. So I listed it, but it doesn't get counted. Because I am counting. Should crack 50 this week.

I don't figure I'll get another full book read before end of day tomorrow, so here's March a bit early.

So, while I figure out what I'll do with this account, I decided last month to track my reading for 2025, just because I've never made a list before. Italics are nonfiction, an asterisk is a book I've read before.
This is January.
