My first review of the year
liked it
A cute read, interesting plot twist. Now to go back and fill in the other books in the series.
For those who know me, reading and books are super important to me. And it looks like this has passed down to Lady K, as I was read The Gingerbread Man on the ride from South Carolina on Sunday when I picked her up from her dad. (I had to answer the questions at the back of the book too! I passed.)
I have been using Goodreads since 2009. Sometimes I will write a brief review, but mainly I use it to track what I read. The old brain doesn't always retain information these days! I also like to challenge myself to read and not just sit there and 'do nothing'.
It also helps me to note those books I come across I want to read. And if I have time, I might try for a free book on their giveaways.
I will probably keep my goal of books to read in 2020 at 175 books. I have been listening to more audio books as my commute to work is about 20 minutes, so that will continue in 2020 too.
But for now, this is how I keep track of what I have read and want to read for the most part. My library's site does have a 'for later' section where I can note books they own I want to read that I can flip over to 'hold' when I have a space for requesting a book on my list.
We will have to see how 2020 goes!
