Ugly cried while finishing this today, and my baby brought me tissues, and cuddled me through it.

Feeling like the luckiest Momms ever. ❤️

Why Not Tonight | Susan Mallery
post image

This has been the absolute worst year of my life... For a variety of reasons that I'm not really ready to talk about yet. I suppose that it makes sense that this would also be the year I crush my reading goal by reading/listening to 104 books vs my goal of 52. There is a definite appeal in escaping into 104 different books to distract/relate/ just enjoy. I'm both proud of myself, and sad at the same time. 2020 can be over any time now. 😭

AkashaVampie Congrats sweetie and I'm so so very sorry that ur year is really really sucking!!! 3y

I read a book recently with a 34 year old widow as the main character. As a recent widow myself, I found some similarities with her. Throughout the book the refer to her support group as Wine with Widows. Tonight I came home to this package dropped off by one of my close friends. It gave me a much needed laugh. ❤😂

This movie freaked me out so much as a 10 year old! Attempting to listen to it now. Is it ridiculous to feel brave in a situation like this???? 😂

Ahhh!!! Help! I've gone down the rabbit hole I think! I keep getting Kindle Unlimited recommendations that sound good through Amazon, but I already have 10 books on my waitlist! 😭😭😭

I FINALLY found it! I loved this book in my younger years, and have thought of it often as an adult. I remember borrowing it from the library often. It took some searching, but I finally found a copy. One more book to read for my July reading challenge, and then I can't wait to settle in with this one. ❤❤❤

In other news, I made my 2020 reading goal by June 3rd. (At the pace I was going, I was hoping for June 1st, but beggars can't be choosers, can they? 😂)

Still super happy either way. Yes, this is a mix of audiobooks, books, and rereads, but it's still way more than I have made it through in years. I can't wait to see what the rest of 2020 brings! 🎉📚🤓
