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

Hey everyone! Well, Dewey’s 24 Hour Readathon is now over, so it’s time I share with you all how it went. After my last update, I read about 10 more pages of Illuminae, and then I fell asleep. Then, I woke up about 20 minutes before the readathon ended, and read until it was over. So, I was able to get to page 118 of Illuminae plus the 20 pages of The… 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

Hey everyone! Wonder Week, hosted by Rimpy’s Reads, has come to a close! Last week, it was all about reading, and today, I’m going to share with you all how I did. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to complete the whole row, and make a bingo, but I finished three and a half of my challenges, so I think that was still pretty good for me. My plan was to complete the bottom,… Read More

Hello! Last week (and a bit of the week before that), I participated in the #InLoveAThon, which was a Valentine’s Day-themed readathon! The readathon was hosted by Cristina from cristinasjourney, it went from February 9-15, and the goal was to complete seven of the ten available challenges. If you’re interested, click here to check out my intended TBR and all the details for it. Today, I’m going to share with you all… 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!  Today I’m going to share with you all how I did for the #ReadersCrossing readathon hosted by Aentee from Read at Midnight!  This was a super cute readathon based off of Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, and it ran from December 10th – 31st.  Unfortunately, just like during the Holiday Adventureathon, I didn’t complete all the challenges, nor did I keep track of my points like I had originally planned on doing.  December… Read More

Hi everyone!  I thought I’d share with you all my wrap-up of the The Holiday Adventure-A-Thon, which was hosted by Jasmine from Novel Thoughts! This wrap-up is going to be pretty short because, unfortunately, I did not get a lot of reading done. I admit, I didn’t even keep track of my points. 😦  I had such high hopes, because this readathon was so well thought out and organized, but with all my preparations… 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

So, I didn’t get everything on my TBR read, but I had such a busy week, I still think I didn’t… Read More
