In the past few years, October is usually the month where I go into a bad reading slump. However, this year, I read sixteen books. Yeah, sixteen. It's not the most I've read in a month (that would be 25 books in January of 2019) but it's the most I've read for a month in … Continue reading October 2021 Wrap Up

September 2021 Wrap Up
September was a better month than I expected in a few ways. Granted, it flew by very quickly, but it was a good month. Obviously I had my sad moments - September 11th for the anniversary of the Twin Towers going down and the lives lost, as well as the 5th anniversary of my gramma's … Continue reading September 2021 Wrap Up
August 2021 Wrap Up
I was on a roll at the beginning of the month with reading. I've since slowed down a little, but it's not a slump. Just busy with other things. Also, how is it September already?? I mean, I love fall so I'm glad it's almost here, but this year is just flying by. I'm not … Continue reading August 2021 Wrap Up
July 2021 Wrap Up
July gave me my reading groove back! I was so excited to finally be in a major reading mood again and enjoy the work that these authors put out there. I feel myself slipping a little now, but I think that's just due to some stress and not knowing what to read next. But I … Continue reading July 2021 Wrap Up
June 2021 Wrap Up
I found my pace more in June for reading, though it did take me while to read Pride and Prejudice. I was glad that I was able to get one last book in by the end of the month, literally having started it on the 28th and unsure if I would actually finish it on … Continue reading June 2021 Wrap Up
May 2021 Wrap Up
May was a much better month for reading. I found my groove again and I cannot be happier. I still didn't read as many books as I usually do in a month, but life has been happening... so I'm not too upset about it. In general, May was just a fantastic month, or at least … Continue reading May 2021 Wrap Up
April 2021 Wrap Up
April was very similar to March in that I didn't get much reading done, especially in the second half of the month. In fact, I think I went two straight weeks without reading a book. I was still reading though... only it was fanfiction. I somehow went from reading Descendants fanfiction to Glee. The Gleek … Continue reading April 2021 Wrap Up
March 2021 Wrap Up
Ughh.... March failed me, you guys. I have been in such a reading slump for most of the month, unless you count fanfiction. I mean, it counts but doesn't count. I can't put it toward my reading goals for the year, but at least I'm reading, right? I've just been on a Descendants kick, again, … Continue reading March 2021 Wrap Up
February 2021 Wrap Up
I'm not sure if January felt like it took forever or if it went by quick. Maybe somewhere in between, I guess. Though I will say the last few days dragged a bit, but I think that's because of the major cold front New England got. I've lived here my entire life and I hate … Continue reading February 2021 Wrap Up

December 2020 Wrap Up
Congratulations everyone! We finished the fifth year of 2020! While I know everything won't magically get better when the clock hits midnight, it's nice to think that 2021 is a fresh start. New year, new goals (well, reading goals), and honestly, I'm just a fan of odd numbered years. Maybe because my birthday is literally … Continue reading December 2020 Wrap Up
November 2020 Wrap Up
It took a while, but I finally got my reading mojo back! Now I'm in the mood to read all the books, but have little time to read as many as I'm wanting to. I do think I'll be able to get a decent amount in, especially because December means that I read children's Christmas … Continue reading November 2020 Wrap Up
October Wrap Up
One thing I learned in October... I cannot make potential TBR lists for the month because those end up being my worst reading months. Once again, I only got through one book, while trying to read another. So for the next two months, I'm just reading whatever I feel like reading... no themes, no planned … Continue reading October Wrap Up
September Wrap Up
How is it October already?! I mean, I'm happy because it's my favorite month, but I feel like September just began. I guess moving will make the time fly, huh? So yes, I moved and I'm still getting settled in my new place - there's so much that still has to get done. It's not even … Continue reading September Wrap Up
August Wrap Up
August, to put it simply... was a bust. For the entire 31 days of the month I managed to read one book. ONE. BOOK. I know it's nothing to be ashamed of, it just kind of shocks me that I wasn't able to pull out of my reading slump as quickly as usual. And to … Continue reading August Wrap Up
