What I’m Reading: Winter 2023-24

• I finished Elizabeth Hay’s “Snow Road Station” and anticipate a likely third installation in this series. Have you read “Snow Road Station” yet? Do you read Elizabeth Hay’s books? Leave a comment to let me know your thoughts.
• As part of my market research, I’ve been reading some romantic comedy bestsellers. One that stood out to me as having perfected the formula is “The Hating Game” by Sally Thorne. If you’ve read any of her books, please start the discussion in the comments section of this post. I’d like to know what you have to say.
• For the winter, I’ll be continuing market research as well as reading old classics—some for the first time ever. At present, I’m binge-reading C.S. Lewis’ Chronicles of Narnia. “The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe” is the first book of this series. I found the boxed set at my local bookstore, and so have decided to read the full chronicles. Have you read it? As a youth? Or perhaps as an adult? Let me know.

And that’s it. Enjoy winter. Please share your comments below. Stay tuned for my next blog post. Wanna get it in your email inbox? Subscribe to stay informed of my newest articles, story reviews, updates, and more.
