I'm still not used to writing 2020 -- it is hard to teach an old dog new tricks.

2019 saw me 1 book short of 50 books read in the year. My last post listed 1-46, so here are the remainder...

47. Amish Christmas Memories (Indiana Amish Brides, #2) by Vannetta Chapman (12/06/19)
48. A Perfect Amish Match (Indiana Amish Brides, #3) by Vannetta Chapman (12/14/19)
49. An Unlikely Amish Match (Indiana Amish Brides #5) by Vannetta Chapman (12/19/19)
