I’m in a Reading Slump | Weekly Reads - 01/05/2022

Rosie Cockshutt 2022-05-01 | Just a super quick video to let you know that I’m in a reading slump, and I’m not sure how much booktube stuff I’ll be doing in the coming weeks. There might be a wrap up on Thursday, or there might not be. There might be more weekly reads videos coming on Sundays, or maybe not. Only time and inspiration will tell :)
