2021 Wrap Up Pt. 1

This year has proved a wild ride for Read Appalachia. My little idea that struck me in the middle of the night has now grown into something I never expected. I’m so grateful for the incredible level of support from the Appalachian community.

This year, I started a summer reading challenge, started Read Appalachia’s TikTok, and recommended books everyday for an advent calendar.
