Preparing for my first STDs... a Book Club, a Readathon, and a Junk Journal
Channel: Readeropolis
Date: 2023-01-19

Hello neighbor - I was fading away as I tried to film this short "toes in" update. It is chaotic like my day was. LOL! I am going for the steve tiberius book club with this adventure.

A BOOK CLUB

I plan to read A Distant Mirror: The Calamitous 14th Century by Barbara W. Tuchman for the Steve Tiberius Donoghue Book Club's February read. It is super thick!

A READATHON

I have been meaning to circle back and follow some of Pages with Paige's NSFWathon reading prompts. For this party, I will be following the STD prompts from March 2021.

A JUNK JOURNAL

The Distant Mirror audiobook is still not available yet. However, I plan to start on the junk journal this weekend. I will be rallying back from the cold and listening to The Wordhord: Daily Life in Old English by Hana Videen. Wondering what a junk journal is? Check out Seapanda Crafts's video: https://youtu.be/m5J0zX9MsTo.

I'll leave more details about the books mentioned below. Will you be reading along with us next month?

Hope to see you in February,
Sonni


P.S. title correction - The book I am reading now is Year of Wonders by Geraldine Brooks.
