I mentioned a few weeks ago that I’m aiming to read different places in the Read the U.S.A. (RTUSA) SRC this year which is dividing into chunks determined by alphabetical order. Check out the details on the RTUSA by clicking here.
So far, I’m reading in Alabama, a place I’ve not visited via literature since 2021. How about you, Gnomies? Where are you reading?
Have a stellar weekend!
