I feel like I said this every month, but can you even believe how fast this year is flying by?!  We’re already halfway through, and I’m kind of freaking out about that.  On the plus side, the summer months are finally here, and with them they bring more reading time, no school, and SUNSHINE!  Needless to say, I’m just a little excited. 😉  Overall, I had an okay reading and blogging month… Read More

Hey everyone!  It’s time again for another monthly wrap-up!  April just flew by for me, and I have a feeling that May will, too!  I’ve only got about two weeks left in the semester, and then I’ll be on summer break and I am SO looking forward to it.  This semester of college has been a killer for me, especially in the past month or so.  Because of that, I didn’t get… Read More

  It’s April, so that means it’s time for my March wrap-up!  For me, March was a pretty great month.  It was my birthday on the 29th, and while I didn’t read quite as many books as I would have hoped, I still read a fairly good amount.  My blog did really well in March, too! Altogether, I read five books in the month of March! BOOKS READ – The Choosing by… Read More

Hi everyone! Well, February has come and gone, and now we are a week into March.  That means spring is on its way!!  February was a pretty uneventful month for me, personally, but after the January I had, I really appreciated the peace.  Also, on February 10th, it was my blog’s 2nd anniversary! Of course, I totally forgot, and so I didn’t do anything.  I do just want to say though, thank… Read More

It’s finally February!!  I don’t know about you, but January felt about three months long.  Last month was also a very emotionally draining and a rather stress-filled month for me for a good chunk of it, too.  So, I’m really glad it’s behind us, and I’m looking forward to happier days in February! Despite all that, I think I still had a pretty good blogging month, and I also managed to read… Read More

Hello! 2017 is over! Can you even believe that?!  We’re a week into January now, and I still have to keep reminding myself that.  I hope all of you had a lovely Christmas, or any other holiday, and just all-around great December.  I had a fun and festive month filled with family, celebrations, and lots and lots of Christmas movies! When it comes to books and blogging, my December did pretty great!  While… Read More

Hello!  Let’s just take a moment to stop and internally freak out that November is over, and we are in the last month of 2017! 😳  Y’ALL! HOW DID THAT EVEN HAPPEN?! WASN’T SUMMER JUST LAST MONTH?! *ahem* Now that that’s out of the way, let’s talk about what I read and blogged about in the month of November!  Plus, I have an exciting Blogmas announcement at the end of this wrap-up! In… Read More

Hello! October is over, and November is halfway over (which is freaking me out since it feels like it just started yesterday), so it is definitely time to share with you all what I was up to last month! In October, I read 5 books! BOOKS READ IN OCTOBER – Spellbook of the Lost and Found by Moïra Fowley-Doyle (library) \\ ⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Regal Hearts: Episode 1 by Livy Jarmusch (ebook) \\ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – The Haunting of… Read More

Hello!  Today, I’m wrapping up my reading and blogging for both the months of August and September.  I don’t know what I’ve been doing, but I will tell you, that I haven’t been reading very much.  I did pretty well in August, but honestly, I’m a little disappointed in how little I’ve been reading the past few months, especially in September.  On the plus side, at least I’ve enjoyed all the books… Read More

Is anybody else freaking out just a little bit that it’s already AUGUST?!  Not only is summer flying by, but 2017 as a whole has been flying by faster than ever!  July is usually my best reading month, so I’m disappointed to say I only read 4 books.  However, 4 books isn’t terrible, by any means! BOOKS READ – Chasing Jupiter by Rachel Coker \\ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Every Heart a Doorway by Seanan McGuire \\ ⭐️⭐️⭐️… Read More
