Hello! March was a very slow blogging month for me – I think I only wrote 3 posts the entire month. I sort of went on an unexpected blogging hiatus, but I am happy to say I finally really feel like blogging again! Luckily, just because my blogging was in a slump, my reading was not. I still didn’t read a whole lot, but it was better than February, and I thoroughly… Read More

Hello! Once again, I’m combining December and January’s wrap up, because it just felt silly to write a separate one for December and then January.

I’m combining October and November’s wrap up for a couple of different reasons! It’s already December 16, and before I know it I’ll be doing December’s wrap-up I was in a reading/blogging slump in October, so not much bookishness occurred. I was in a major blogging slump in November, so not much blogging happened… Okay, here we go…
September was a bit of a slow reading month for me. I started out great by reading 2 entire books in 4 days, but then I actually didn’t read that much the rest of the month. Honestly, I feel like September flew by so fast! It was Labor Day, and then all of the sudden the entire month was over…what happened?? BOOKS READ I ended up reading a total of four books this… Read More
