Goodbye February!
This was a most difficult month but I ended up reading and listening to several fantastic stories. They were a nice escape from the problems faced in the real world.
You can follow what I'm reading at Bookstagram, Goodreads (includes our KidLit reads,) and StoryGraph [username; stacyrenee] (does not include our KidLit reads.)
