It was a year ago today that I embarked on the journey to finish over a dozen books. Mary Shelley’s birthday had just come and gone, making me realize that I didn’t know much about her.

August 2017 — A Wrap-Up for the Month of Graphic Novels & Comics
The previous month was all about graphic novels and comics.
