#Unreadshelf April Recap

I blinked.
30 days passed.
I have not left the zip code in over 48 days.

I took a break from reading without realizing I was taking a break from reading. My eyes feel blurry. My short term vision seems hazy. I don't want to go anywhere. I want to be with my girls in the house: sheltering. And watching TV. If only we had an unwatched shelf project to write about.

I'm almost finished with Brave New World. And it making me think things.

Somethings changed: I lost my commute time; I have a backlog of podcasts and audible books. I have been watching Facebook live feeds of authors: Viola Shipman, Nancy Thayer, Jason Reynolds, and Jack Ridl. They talk about the process, and the writing and the work of writing. And it feels like the ideas are floating in my head. I started a mini journal again. I carry it around with me and I put words it. I've been taking advantage of free youth audible listening. We spent some time chipping away at Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter.

Somethings stay the same: I carry books around and think about reading. And I talk about it.

What I added to my library: Since May is a buy ban, I went a little over the top.
