I've been gone a while. I started reading fanfiction to escape and I got sucked in an abyss.

I have no idea if someone else is hosting similar challenges. I just grabbed some of what I have hosted before.

Here's to a happy year of great reading
Jan2023: Not much has changed. Writing a fanfiction now O_o as well as reading but I bought 7 new books in December and hope to get those read soon. Crossing fingers about adding challenges (late!)

My two oldest boys are playing football (7th and 5th graders) and a bunch of mom's were recently joking that we need to see if there's a football basics book out there to learn positions, plays, special teams and penalty calls. I'd LOVE this.
Thanks for the giveaway.

I read because it is a form of escape for me. It is my "me" time. The time I pamper myself and escape into other worlds or time periods.
