Book Lady Linda’s May 2025 Reading Report & Diary
My plan for May is to finish reading books I’ve started then set aside for various reasons. I have a shelf full of them. Since I’ve decided to “read what I own” in 2025 I think this will help me make progress. I pledged to read 100 books I already own before I buy anymore. So far this year I’ve read only 10. (Audiobooks are not counted in this challenge, so I can continue to buy and read as many of them as I want/need/desire.)

Linda Book Lady’s December 2024 Reading Report & Diary
Is it cold outside? Here in the Klamath-Siskiyou Mountains, there’s a noticeable chill in the air, enough that I’d feel silly going outside in sandals, though I still want to. Book reading involves putting on warm shoes and covering my legs with blankets, but I’m still sifting through numerous books, and I’m thinking of taking notes, more than I have in the past.

Linda Book Lady’s October 2024 Reading Report & Diary
The world is getting colder but I’ve just discovered my new bed is the most comfortable place ever for reading.

I’m hoping to live in peace with everyone, and to trust God in every situation.
