February 2022 Reading Wrap Up & Challenge Progress

 

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.)
