March ends a quarter, and if these three months are representative, I average two novels a week, and should manage a hundred this year. Of course, squeezing in five short novels in the last full week of March helped. But if I balance long modern novels with short older books, it should work out. Finished _The Essential Rog Phillips_.

Here are my #MarchReads:

-Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin
-Heir of Fire by Sarah J. Maas
-Barrow of Winter by H. M. Long

I also got about a third of the way through The Assassin’s Blade by Sarah J. Maas, but that’ll count for April once it’s finished.

I lost a lot of momentum in March, but that’s okay. Getting back into a few TV shows and the Diablo 4 beta weekends are what I’m blaming the slowdown on.
