January Reads Wrap Up

Who’s on StoryGraph?

I still have afable and Goodreads but curious who’s using what and what you like best? I heard of StoryGraph when there were some problematic things with Fable’s AI…but I’ve been using them all to try to figure out which I liked best- but also want some like minded reader friends for suggestions too.

What’s your current read? Or most anticipated on your TBR?
