What I Read in December, 2022: Rounding out the Year. . .

Books, books, books! So many to be read, several in progress, and some of I finished in December. The stack above comprises all three, but it’s my December reading I’ll tell you about in this latest post. In fact, I read SO much in December that I’m going to split this post in two. Four titles in this, Part One, and four more in Part Two, coming your way soon. I hope you enjoy both and we can have our usual lively book chat. Click through to read on!
