For many millions 2020 was a weird nasty year. It was a year of the rat and it certainly seemed even the rats wanted it over.
I have pretty much been inside our condo in Metro Manila since early March as mandated by the government and my family. I am of an age more vulnerable to the virus. We suffer no material deprivation at all, our three adult daughters are home as well as our six cats and now our latest family member, Chewbacca, a wonderful Shjn Tzu.

The Family is very close and we enjoy being together. I do miss going to The mall, eating in resturants once and a while but I have streaming services and of course my Reading. Plus anything we want can be delivered. We are thankful for our privledged status as many here suffer real hardship.
If I did not love Reading and have access to a huge number of works I would have found the year a lot worse. We did have to cancel a planned trip to Europe but still hope for better options coming.
In 2020 I posted on 25 works of narrative nonfiction and 27 novels and novellas. There are 108 posts on story stories. Some of these posts were on multiple stories so I am guessing I talked on about 175 stories.
As of today Pages on The Reading Life have been viewed 6,192,503 times. There are 3860 posts online.
