October is National Book month! It was established in 2003 by the National Book Foundation to promote literacy, reading, writing, & literature appreciation. It is a great time to try reading a different genre than you normally do, read a book you have wanted to read, or re-read an old favorite! Children's books count - "Flotsam" is one of my favorites (Naulayne)! Need some suggestions? Try using Listopia (https://www.goodreads.com/list)!
