10 books is not a bad month at all, but my goodness, I struggled to get all of them. I had a few DNFs (The Followers, Dead to Her, and another so bad I’ve already forgotten what it was). I always feel like I’ve wasted so much time when I stop reading a book, so I really hate to give up but sometimes it’s necessary. The latter half of this month was so terrible, it actually made me wonder if I even like reading anymore. 😂🤦🏼♀️
Bring on February and (hopefully) better books!
How was January for you?

I didn’t think I would get anywhere close to ten books when I started this month. Audiobooks sure help a ton!
I hope you love them too!! ❤️

I read about 10 books myself. Not sure how I did it, but I was super happy to start off 2020 tthat way. Looks like you overall really enjoyed the books that you read too, which is aa great thing. My favorite book I read. in January was Where the Crawdads sing by Delia Owens, it was magnificent.
