Merry Christmas 🎄

As the holiday season is upon us, I’m finishing the year — as I end each year — reading Dickens. This year A Christmas Carol is my 50th book read, which is my Goodreads goal for 2024. My God! It’s no wonder I haven’t written much in the past few months! Nearly a book a week. Whew!! I’ll post the entire list next week.

I’ve read and enjoyed nearly all the books I read this past year and came across several of the year’s best as part of an amazing book club. Plus, the list holds many by Indie authors, of course.

If you have not read A Christmas Carol, I urge you to do so or at least I hope you enjoy the above excerpt. In the words of Scrooge’s nephew, “Christmas had never put a scrap of gold or silver in my pocket but I believe it had done me good, and will do me good; and I say, God bless it!”
