What I read in 2019
2 min readJul 22, 2020
A (short) list.
In 2017 there was the Year 33: A Reading List, in 2018 A Reading Party, and in 2019, the #Dymocks52Challenge.
Fun fact, each year I challenge myself to “read more” (and am proud to say the last three years have delivered a trifecta of new year resolution success!). Fail fact, 21 books is not 52! Meh, there’s always 2020.
