This year has reignited my love of getting lost in literature. As we approach the last few months of 2023 I wanted to reflect on a goal I made for myself this year - the goal to read 12 books. I have doubled my goal by October and with my listeners who love reading in mind I wanted to take this episode to reflect on the books I have read thus far. This is the final episode of season 3 but before taking a brief break, I hope you are able to find a new book to read from my list and to get you to your 2023 reading goal :)
