Here is the next post in the books read in 2023, part six of the summaries.
Since there are quite a number of books, I’ll be breaking it down into a series with a few parts until I’ve caught up. There won’t be any reviews attached, as I honestly don’t have the time to catch up on almost three years of posts and still start with this year’s reviews.
Remember to check out the question at the end and leave a comment.
