2024 reading journal flip through | new channel | channel introduction

Hey y'all! I'm Shaun and I want to be your new book bud! I'm a stay-at-home-mom of two toddlers rekindling my love of reading after a years-long slump. I'm a serious mood reader, a (comparatively) slow reader--I read 2-3 books per month--and I am not afraid to DNF a book that I'm not vibin' with. I'm a horror/thriller and lit fic kinda gal, with a dash of magical realism and heavy dose of anything/everything gay

(Please excuse a few minutes of shakiness during the section where I describe my tools. I didn't realize how easily my dining room table shook. The full flip through with context is much sturdier)
