My 2021 in Book Covers

Hey everyone! 2021 is nearly over! It's been a crazy year, but you know what? It's been a pretty awesome year for reading, at least. I've read 45 full-length novels and novellas this year, which is a lot for me. And here they are in all their glory! I've not added in any of the …

Monthly Update – November 2021
