I was a bit behind schedule back in February but now I'm 6 books ahead, all thanks to a stupid nasty virus that has me stuck in my apartment most of the time. Boo, Covid-19!
Goals to date: Read 3 non-fiction books -- 2 down, 1 to go.
Read at least 3 classics -- done (Solar Pons, The Prophet and
Judge Dee). Will probably read more before I'm done.
Finish the Miss Marple series I started last year -- only 1
book read so far; I got side-tracked first by Poirot and then
Judge Dee which I am trying to track down The Chinese Gold
Murders, but the Kindle version is no longer available and I
can't read the paperback so no use buying it. Oh well, maybe
someday it'll come back. I hope.
Borrow more books instead of buying -- only 9 of the 23 read
so far have been Kindle Unlimited and library loans. A couple
were freebies and fan fiction but lately I've been bingeing at
Smashwords because my favorite MM romance/mysteries
are all on sale at prices too good to pass up even with the
currency exchange. :sigh: My huge TBR pile will someday get
smaller but today is not that day. Not even this year!
