While I won that, I didn't exactly win at reading. I guess I was just more caught up … Continue reading November Wrap Up
Reading slumps happen, and they're terrible. I recently had one at the end of September/beginning of October and it's really suckish to see all those unread books and just not feel like reading any of them.
