Many thanks to all the friends on Facebook who offered their best. I now have a list of good reading to last me beyond this one year.
So far I am finding it difficult to get any amount of (quiet, kid-free, uninterrupted and still conscious) time to devote to this blog, but I'll do my best to get the details finalized soon so I can get reading!
