My July was an absolute mess. Two of my friends got Covid. My trip was canceled. I had a big panic about the doctoral program. It was just not good in general. My reading stats reflect that.

Like last year, I’ll explain why I picked them as I go.
Continue reading “Top Ten Reads of 2021”Alright! This is the moment you’ve been waiting for! My top 10 quotes from 2021! I did not read enough books, or collect enough quotes, this year to warrant a top 5 quotes. All the same I love these. Surprisingly there were at least 20 quotes that fought for these spots.
