@vicgrinberg great job! I'm only at 18. I'll have to do more analysis later but the main takeaway this year is the paucity of great reads. I've struggled. Only one 5 ⭐️ book (Prequel by Maddow). 7 nonfiction, 11 fiction. 8 by women, 10 by men. Wish I knew another language but at least one was translated. 9 audiobooks, 9 dead tree books.

A House in Bloomsbury (1894)

~Margaret Oliphant (4 April 1828 – 20 June 1897)

Thick Fog in the Morning, we were joined by our Hunters at 6.15 am who it appears were Employed Hunting Deer, as they brought us a supply on one Red Deer, besides the Meat of a Buffalo Bull. We crossed them & five Horses to the opposite or North Banks of the River. Noon, the Weather became gloomy, threatening rain. We had showers in the afternoon... #AmWritingHistory #Bools
YORK FACTORY EXPRESS JOURNAL, 1826:
"We ascended Cedar Lake in a SW by W direction 12 Miles which brought us to the Long Point, when the Weather assumed a bad appearance, & a considerable traverse being before us, we put on shore in a small Bay on the West side of this Point at 8 pm & Encampt for the night. We had hardly pitched when we had a heavy Thunder storm with much rain & Lightening, we therefore considered it fortunate that we had not taken the Traverse. #MBHistory #History #Bools
