I really need time to slow down a bit. I just did a wrap up, and here I am doing another one for March. I read 7 books that month and had an average rating of 4.4 stars. I own all of the books except for two, so I’m making good progress on my physical TBR.

Here's my January reading wrapup!
I had an average rating of 4.3 ⭐
I did a lot of immersive reading (audio plus physical) and it helped a lot with retention.
I spent $73 for the month on 3 books and saved $127 by using the library and receiving gifted books from publishers.
