October! It was so cold in North Idaho, all I could think of was getting out of the cold. Reading didn’t happen. I’m living in my van, which isn’t insulated yet. It was so cold I couldn’t even focus on learning to use the propane heater I bought, and I couldn’t leave town because I was waiting for a business deal to go through. It took much longer than expected. Finally got out of there on October 11. Forgot to tell my daughter I was leaving town, because I just wanted to wake up in a place that wasn’t below freezing.

Book Lady’s August 2019 Reading Report
I’m getting to it. Really… only a few days late with this posting. I’ve been busy. I returned to North Idaho. I’m moving out of my apartment.

This posting is all about my August reading plans, realities and hopes.

Book Lady’s June 2019 Reading Report
Summer starts in June! Meanwhile, I read. A lot of what I’ll be reading this month was planned for last month, but I fell behind. There are new book choices planned as well. Only time will tell how far I’ll get through this stack of books this month. There’s a reading diary at the end of the page.

50 Books to Read Before You Die – My progress on this challenge
I just love book lists – almost as much as I love books themselves. I got this book list from a Goodreads group with the same name as the list. So . . . thought I’d put the list on my blog here to keep track of which books I’ve actually read, and we’ll see how many I get to read before . . . . that morbid thing happens.
