In 2014 I challenged myself to read more books and I am still reading away. I used to read constantly, but then I discovered sewing and quilting. (I did not stop reading, but noticed that the quantity of books I read drastically diminished.) I would like to begin to balance out my reading and sewing time.

I loved “The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks”! It is my favourite non-fiction book.
Loved The Night Circus. The descriptions are so great; I really wanted to visit.
