Hi everyone! I hope you’ve had a great January, but does it not feel like this month would never end?

On a more positive note, I did manage to read 11 books this month – 1 physical book, 2 ebooks and 8 audiobooks. By genre:
- 6 General Fiction
- 2 Mysteries /Thrillers
- 1 Women’s Fiction
- 1 Historical Fiction
- 1 Literary Fiction
