Book # 84 - The Stranger by Albert Camus

Just now as I was about to enter on Goodreads that I'd read The Stranger it showed that I already read it.

I'm pretty sure I already owned the book way before we started this project, so it makes sense that I would have read it before. Anyway, I enjoyed it. A

Book # 74 - As I Lay Dying by William Faulkner

 I think this book may have put me in a weird headspace for the few days it took to read. Anyway, I'm glad I read it.

For such a short book, As I Lay Dying sure has a lot to unpack and think about. A
