Current Reads and Reads to Come

It’s been a minute, and I’ve been in a slump, but the joys of Christmas reading pulled me out and into some other genres that I’m having fun exploring.

There are a lot of great books out there, and I want to talk to you about what some that I'm currently reading and planning to read this year.
