I will be comparing this each week, although with my reading slowing down this month I think the figures are likely to go up rather than down 😂.

Hoping to continue with the reading in the evenings this week, as long as I don’t fall asleep. (As always 😂) I also finish for the Christmas holidays on Wednesday, so hoping to fit even more books in this week.
