Why I’m not doing Kindle Unlimited after all
Hi everyone! How about the eclipse yesterday? I’m sure you’re all sick of hearing about it, but I’m not sick of talking about it! 😀 I was in the path of totality and it was the absolute coolest thing I’ve ever seen. Photos don’t do it justice, but here are a couple that come close to capturing my view. It was AMAZING. Anyway, that’s not the point of this post.…
