This was a light reading month.

Still in Progress:
Poe for Your Problems
Greek Myths & Tales
Winter‘s Fury #ReadYourKindle

Two week #BookReport

📚 Finished
Gaia ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ainsley‘s Complete Guide to Thoroughbred Racing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

📖 In Progress
Greek Myths & Tales - Read the first ten sections. On page 323.
Poe for Your Problems - Started the introduction.
Winter‘s Fury (Kindle) - Read a few more chapters. At 54%

‘Persephone‘s Pathway is one of balance and duality; embrace the dual goddess archetype of Underworld Queen and Spring Maiden in order to achieve harmony.‘

Persephone is my favorite goddess from Greek Myth, one I‘ve always felt the most drawn to. The writing in this book really resonated with me. I‘d recommend this to anyone who feels a similar pull to Persephone and her dual natures.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

#ReadAway2024

The inspiration for CW‘s Roswell and Roswell, New Mexico.

I was a big fan of the original Roswell series. I read this mainly for nostalgia and to be able to compare it to the show. The writing could‘ve been more detailed but I enjoyed revisiting Roswell and its characters.

Book 1 of Roswell High

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

1. I always start the year by setting a Goodreads Challenge for number of books.

2. I make lists for #ReadYourKindle. I make TBR piles for themed challenges. The rest of the time I pull out the books I want to read soon, pile them up, and hope for the best.

3. Reading is a great escape. It‘s relaxing, improves my vocabulary, inspires me creatively, improves my writing skills, increases my knowledge.

🌼 Fifty Shades of Grey. A lot of people tried to push those books on me but I just could not get into them.

🌺 All of them. Hard to think of one individual book.
