November Group Read: Second Check-In
Nov. 14th, 2021 08:07 amWait, that means November is halfway over. How did that happen? How is everything going? Are you working through your pile/shelf/chosen media?
(It is perfectly fine if the answer is a long silent scream, of course.)
For added optional discussion, if you'd like- Do you have a preference between hardcover, paperback, ebooks, audiobooks, etc.? Or are books good however they get into your brain?

I use ebooks while traveling because I can never accurately predict what I'll want to read on any given day and thus need to have 8 billion options available. For commuting, I'll stick an electronic copy of whatever I'm reading at home on my phone so I can keep reading without lugging the physical copy around with me.

Same. I was looking at replacing a tattered old favorite and the new cover is a travesty.
