Hi there, For those who don't know, this year (2019) I decided it would be a good idea to read a book a month. Months 1, 2 and 3 went pretty great. However, in months 4 and 5 I had a little failure.

The links to each corresponding blog post are below if you'd like to catch up.  1. The Art of Resolutions 2. Month One: Marriage Take More Than Love 3.
