Books I read in 2020
Per tradition at the end of each year, I like to look back at the books I’ve read throughout the year. 2020 was a particular year to say the least. During the first lockdown I struggled to read at all despite having all the time in the world in theory. It wasn’t until I took the time to look back that I realized in the end I cam out about the same as in 2019. The doodles are in no particular order.
