Another great reading challenge / project! Is that a picture of a snow covered bunny?
Jinjer, I’m reading “quality” books next year. I’m done with fluffy fiction (exception is always poetry…how just a few words by a poet can stop me in my tracks amazes me!) and…
non-fiction that doesn’t teach me anything important. (…not interested in the History of Butter!). I have a few great biographies/memoirs lined up that will inspire the reader to great things or teach us how to survive hardships. That is what touches my heart! There are some Nobel winners that have faded and fallen between the cracks. It will be a challenge to try their books in Kindle version. Thanks for your comment!
…yes, that is a bunny!
