My Year in books 2023--memorable journey

I managed to read 18 books in 2023. Overall, it was an enthralling and magical experience. I almost lived with the characters in these books and in the places narrated. I read regularly back in school. Over the past few years, my interests were varied. I spent most of my time working. Health, wellness and music occupied most of my free-time. It was in 2022 that I began reading again. Being environed by readers, I picked up Sooley. I read a bit and moved to complete my lifetime favourite "The Class" by Erich Segal. It was the right book at the right time. It inspired hope and strength in me when I needed it the most. Ever since, there has been no looking back. I picked up one book after another. My schedule didn't permit me to read more than 18 books. But, I must say that I enjoyed each of the books. Hope to make more time for books in the coming year.
