Ink & Inspiration 2024

NOVEMBER

Every year, I would have a book reading competition with my aunty Sally. She was eight years older than me, and we were more like best friends or sisters really. We would start in January each year and every time we read a book, we’d share the title and author, as well as our thoughts on what we had read

While Sally is sadly no longer with us, my love of reading is still ever present. Each year I document all the books I’veread in the ‘Goodreads Reading Challenge.’ In 2021, I read 60 books through the years. In 2022 I read 76. In 2023, it was 61. This year I have topped out at 92. So why am I telling you this?

In the spirit of my reading and loving books, I am starting “Ink and Inspiration.” A monthly post on the 30th of each month that will talk of my latest read, its influence on me, how literature can mirror our life,  and all other things bookish! Make sure you join me!
