I haven't been reading much at all lately. I think the last book I read was one by Frieda McFadden.They are good, but all get a bit samey.
I got two books for my kindle. Wintering: The Life Changing Sunday Times bestseller by Katherine May and I pre-ordered The Power of Enough: Finding Joy With Your Relationship with Money - Elizabeth Husserl. I'm going to start the first one next week.2 -
I really enjoyed Wintering.3
