My Thoughts
Not much reading done today unless you count the many pages of textbook reading I had to do. On the bright side, I have a little bit over an hour left on my audio so I should be done with that on Day 6 with a review! :D
How did your fifth day go?
there are so many awesome fairy tales retellings these days. I enjoyed Bitter Greens. I also reviewed an awesome book on the topic: https://wordsandpeace.com/2016/12/29/book-review-fairy-tales-for-the-disillusioned/
ReplyDeleteGood luck for The Martian, I enjoyed it a lot.
I think textbook reading should count too ;-)
Looks like you're making great progress on your reading goals. I hope you are feeling better from the flu.
