Looking Back at the Books I Read in July 2023
This month felt like every book series had a release. Granted, that's not true as many more are releasing books next month that are on my TBR. Either way, there were a lot of things that I wanted to read. Some of them were definitely better than others, not to mention I also went on a massive hockey romance or rather college sport romance kick as I just couldn't commit myself to reading a new series while I was in the middle of packing up to move and arranging everything involved in that. …
View PostLooking Back at the Books I Read in April 2023
I started this month feeling in a book slump since I didn't want to pick up any new books. Then, around halfway through the month, I started devouring books again. Though even with that being said, I still feel like I didn't read a lot this month (compared to others) even when you factor in my re-reads. As one of the new books was only half a book and the re-reads I skipped a lot to get to the dialogue or juicy bits. Sometimes I really don't like being a mood reader. If it doesn't vibe with the moment, I cannot make myself read a book regardless of how good it might be. And I know I have a lot of books that I could read. But every time I go to read them, my brain just says "nope, not today." So, with that being said here's a summary of everything I did manage to read during the month of April and my thoughts regarding those books.…
View PostLooking Back at the Books I Read in February 2023
Another month has passed and similar to last month, I'm going to be sharing everything that I read during the course of the month. This is broken down into sections: new books I've read, things I didn't finish, and things I re-read. I only count the new books towards my yearly reading goal, as that's how Goodreads handles the counts as it doesn't repeat the read time. But it's not entirely accurate, so I figured I would start sharing those as well in these round-ups.…
View PostLooking Back at December 2022
Last month of the year. Where has the time gone? This year has had some of my lowest moments (losing my job) to feeling like a weight has been lifted off my shoulder for the first time in almost five years (getting a new job). Not only that, but I got the majority of my teeth fixed, and I still have some more work to be done of course. But I no longer hate the thought of smiling and having people see my teeth. My habits regarding my teeth are better than they were before, and I intend to make that a priority in 2023 so this never happens again. Because I realize when it came to my health, I was doing the wrong thing. I was letting work dictate when or if I could go see doctors, dentists, etc. As I felt like I could never take time off to do so, but not anymore. So, here's to the next year and making myself a priority. But before the new year can kick off, I wanted to look back at everything that happened in December 2022. From what I read, what I did on stream, what happened in my personal life, and what I did as far as body painting.…

It's been an entire year. I hope everyone had a good year. I thought I would wrap up the year by looking back at every single book I read in 2022. We'll see if 2023 is similar in terms of how many books I read.…
