November? Seriously, how is 2020 not over yet?! This year has aged me a decade and not just because I’ve stopped coloring my hair. Even my bookish news is not great—my November reading fell off.

August Reading Wrap-Up
Goodbye, August—the last month of summer and my first summer in Michigan has wrapped up. Much like this winter, the majority of the summer was reasonable.

November Reading Wrap-Up
