I do have RL plans for this week but no wedding to attend or trips coming up. Plus I'm still trying to be offline so even with lunches, shopping and starting a running program, I should be spending a lot of time reading.

This is where I'll update my reading but I'm sure any challenges I complete will have their own pages.

Time Devoted to Reading

I'll spend some time reading each day
