    With more and more people staying home, we are catching up on cleaning, Streaming media, and our book pile. With the resurgence of audio books, it makes it even easier to multitask around the house while escaping our self quarantines internally. My current book hangover is ‘The Testaments’ by Margaret Atwood. If you are unfamiliar,…
