Favorite Reads from 2019

We were on vacation last week in Calabria -- the toe of the boot of Italy.  Tom was taking a charcuterie course at the Italian Culinary Institute and I spent some time relaxing and sightseeing.  I started to work on this blog post while on vacation and wanted to hurry up and get it posted before January is over. Similar to 2018 I wanted to do a final blog post to roll up my reading in 2019.  I read 24 books for the Read Harder Challenge in 2019 and I did three blog posts.  If you want to go back and read the posts here are the links: Has This All Happened Before (February 3, 2019)   Another Year...Another Book Challenge (August 25, 2019) Challenge Complete (November 17, 2019)   I read an additional 40 books in 2019 bringing my grand total to 64 . 58 percent of the books I read were by women - 37/27 64 percent were nonfiction books - 41/23 (Still my go-to genre) 72 percent of the books I read were library books - 46/18 (Let's hear it for library books!)
