Welcome back, Rusty! Looking forward to seeing what you read! I still need to read the Grishaverse. I even own them all. 😬

I honestly wish Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ would let us set a page number instead of book number. That would do the lengthy books justice!

Agreed. I cut the number books planned for my major challenge for this reason.

Life has shown a clinker into life. DH was diagnosed with an aggressive and difficult cancer which has limited reading time. He has completed chemo therapy and is healing but it is a very slow process which keeps me hopping to keep up on everything. Hence, my reading passion slowed to a crawl.

Rusty, I am so sorry to hear about your DH's cancer diagnosis. I cannot imagine how have been coping with that. Glad to hear he is healing and I trust the Chemo was completely effective.

Be gentle with yourself.

I'm so sorry to hear about your hubby. I hope he is getting better each day and you are finding a little time to take care of yourself too. Being a caretaker is hard. My thoughts and prayers are with you both.
