Hello, friends. The first half of this year has been a beast of a year, work wise. I always look forward to creating a Summer Reading list but this year, I just don’t have the bandwidth!

Instead, I am picking up The Count of Monte Cristo and I am calling it “my summer read” because it’s 1300pp. and will probably take me all summer to get through!

Anyone want to join me? I am starting it today and will read it in-between review copies and book club picks. So many have recommended this book to me and it will feel so good to finally get this one under my belt.

Come on, you know you want to join me.
