It was quite an impressive reading and reviewing year for you, but since you hope to change things up a little bit, I wish you well with those changes this year. “To everything there is a season…” You did what you needed to in order to survive emotionally this last year. May 2020 offer new challenges and great promise, Shalini!

Well, I am seriously impressed with the massive amount of reading you’ve done this year. (The reason why tears at my heart, though) My wish for you is that 2020 is a much happier year for you, and that your reading time will be spent with more of your own books.
