One book a week, all in English. As few as September and for the same reason. Staff having physical and family problems and me working for them on top of my ordinary shifts. Plus, in this case, a few pages more of story worked at, and actually finishing one (which was almost finished anyway.) There's a long weekend in December that might provide the happy holiday reading, but I fancy it's more likely to involve the slow holiday writing.
