Curious how I transformed my reading life from an occasional reader to a somewhat professional reader? Well it is all thanks to this episode. Back in 2016, I hosted a podcast called Say Yes where I asked guests to share what their say yes/outside of your comfort zone moments were. One guest wanted to share about her experience with Adult Reading, as a fellow reader I was curious what she was going to say.  Well at the end of the chat she shared where she got her recommendations and let me tell you that was LIFE CHANGING.

Back in 2016, between May and December, I ended up reading 276 books. I started to consume books just for fun.  I discovered romance and well it’s been an amazing journey.
