Lynn's List Discontinued

After several years of compiling Lynn's List, I've decided to discontinue it, at least for the time being.

I am now more active on Goodreads, and find it difficult to keep up with compiling Lynn's List, as well as other book activity. You can find me on Goodreads and follow my reading activity there, if you wish. https://www.goodreads.com/everydayreader1

Thanks to those of you who have enjoyed and followed Lynn's List for so many years. I look forward to seeing many of you on Goodreads.
