So what happened? Where have I been? Good question. The last time I reviewed a book I was living in Washington, DC finishing up my Master’s in Social Work by doing an internship with Wider Opportunities for Women (WOW). I had so many adventures up there and I was going 100 miles an hour-story of my life.
But I know that still does not explain why I suddenly stopped the reviewing process because let me tell you, I definitely did not stop reading. I was going along fine and then I think I just found other ways to occupy my time.

As of now I have read over 90 books and thinking about going back and reviewing all of those books is a bit daunting. I can’t say what exactly happened. I actually really enjoy writing out my thoughts about the journey a book takes me on. It’s like writing about an adventure and all the people I met and how I came away feeling after investing so much time and energy into the story. And because of this I want to start reviewing again. I might just start with the most recent and work my way backwards or only review the books that really had an impact on me.
No matter how it happens, I always remind myself that reading is first and foremost for me. But if I can share a great story with someone or teach others about what I have learned then that offers an opportunity to make a connection with someone else. What a gift!
As always, happy reading.
