*MARCH 2024 READS*

 



*FINAL THOUGHTS*

While I haven’t written as many reviews as I would have liked, I am thrilled that I made it to 100 reads for 2024 as of February 29. One of my most important meds has had an insurance hangup and it has really impaired my ability to be as productive as I have been for the last couple of months. I am looking forward to that getting resolved as soon as possible so I can get more reviews written and try to read all of my March and April ARCs in the next two weeks.

Here is a collage of my first 100 reads:


I did complete one diamond painting as well as a jigsaw puzzle:

Hanging Out in the Game Room 
from Diamond Art Club

Next by Charlse Wysocki

I have begun a new diamond painting, just yesterday. I also began a group buddy read of Bleak House by Charles Dickens.  But basically, I have just been watching a lot of TV. 

Family Circus by Richard Lorenz
from Diamond Art Club


I have some upcoming surgeries this month so  I really hope to get back to reading in the next few days as well as catching up on my book reviews.

  1. I hope that your meds get figured out. You blow me out of the water with your reading. I 46 books for the year so i pretty happy with that. I signed up for a bunch of buddy reads in march on a goodreads group i am in so i hoping to get some older books read as i always want to get some of my books finished and donated i don’t have the room to keep every book. Have a great week.

  2. That’s an ambitious reading list though it seems you are more than capable of completing it.
    Good luck with your surgery

    Wishing you a great reading week
