So I know that there shouldn’t be any shame when it comes to reading and I know that it’s impossible to read every book ever published and I tell people this all the time….. BUT…… I still feel shameful that there are so many amazing sequels that I am excited for but I haven’t read the book before it or in some cases haven’t even started the series!
