Linda Book Lady’s June 2021 Reading Report & Diary
June might turn out to be a month of great change for me. I’m hoping to get my van converted, better than before, into a fully self-contained Class B RV. There may be solar panels and even an air conditioner (that can be used only with shore power). That would mean: time for a vacation! Wherever I go, there will be books.

Book Lady’s September 2020 Reading Report
I am flying through books this year! I’m excited to say that at the beginning of September, I have only twelve more books to read for the 2020 PopSugar Reading Challenge – and this is the closest I’ve come to succeeding at the challenge in the five years I’ve been doing it. Of those 12 books, I’m already half-way through two of them.

Summer is in full swing with grasses turned gold and wildflowers towering over them in my yard. I can’t mow down a wildflower, so I’ll read instead. Stay in where it is cool… and read.
