A Quarantine Time Filling List

So, a high school classmate of mine, blog name, No Al, asked me to suggest some books while we are all social distancing ourselves during this Covid-19 event. I was happy to oblige. She's cool people and she (and a few others) have asked for books & web series before. And then my mind got an idea and I asked on Facebook and Instagram.
Who needs/wants a Quarantine book or web series list?🙂
Feeling Inspired!
Enough of you say "Me", might do a post.
As of the time I am typing this I have 4 on FB & 5 on IG to say Me.

I love sharing books & indie web series. I have to cut myself off because I could probably share forever. They are some of the simplest ways I like to entertain & understand myself. I also threw in my Being Active playlist. Just some videos I put on to "move my body" a little. Reading & Watching web series can be sedentary activities. But still not a proper excuse not to be functional.
