Yeah, it has been a rough start to the year. Not just with reading, like generally with life. It happens. I'm trying. Did I get back on track over spring break? Nope! I did get sick though, so that was fun. I do feel like I'm finally starting to straighten things out, though and that's not nothing. I finally finished The Crossroads, sequel to The Only Road, and it was beautiful and sad and hopeful. I also read (one of? Surprising no one, not only have I not been reading my challenge books, I haven't been keeping great notes of my plans) my choices for challenge #24, The Storyteller. It's magical realism, and it was very strange and fascinating and cool.
So hey, four prompts complete, all told not too shabby! It could certainly be worse. I haven't requested Persepolis from the library for challenge #14 yet (frustrating, because I went to TWO libraries today and could probably have found it at one of them if I had thought about it), but I've got the audiobook for Briarheart so I've got that going for myself. And my pick for challenge #1, Read a 2025 release by a BIPOC author, has arrived. Oathbound, last book in the Legendborn series! 650 pages, whaaaaat? Who doesn't love a hefty tome like that? I'll chip away at that, though, listen to my audiobook, and next time I make a trip to the library I'll grab Persepolis. Baby steps, baby.
