Here we are with this year’s second-to-last watching and listening post. As has been the theme this year, I really don’t have that much to talk about here. I had planned to watch a bunch of spooky things in October, but that didn’t end up happening so I’ve only got a couple of things from … More Watching and Listening | October and November
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish and is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt is cosy reads. I decided to just go with six books today because I couldn’t really decide how I wanted to define a ‘cosy read’ and these were the ones that stuck out … More The Best Cosy Reads | Top Ten Tuesday
Now that we’re getting closer and closer to the end of the year, I thought it would be a good time to look back at some of the new releases I was most excited for this year to see what I’d read, what I’d lost interest in and what I was still excited for. So … More Looking Back At My Most Anticipated 2022 Releases
If I was going to title these posts with something other than the date, I think this one would be called something along the lines of ‘five recent reads way out of my comfort zone’ because these five are definitely unusual for me. I have a picture book, a dystopian YA, some crime and a … More Five Most Recent Reads | November 24th
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish and is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt is a thankful freebie, and I thought I’d use it to talk about some of the books I’m thankful that I read this year. So let’s jump right in. Spoiler Alert (Spoiler Alert … More Books I’m Thankful For This Year | Top Ten Tuesday
I think it’s safe to say that I’ve been in a massive reading slump for the last month, maybe even two. Today’s post includes one book from October and then everything I’ve read in November up to this point, so I’ve definitely been struggling more than usual. NaNoWriMo was taking up a lot of my … More Five Most Recent Reads | November 15th
For NaNoWriMo this year, I decided I’d do this weekly updates/check-in’s mostly so I could look back at the end of the month and see how I felt about everything and what worked for me and what didn’t. I’ll talk more about what I plan to do with all of that at the end of … More A Mixed Start | NaNoWriMo 2022 Check-In #1
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish and is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s prompt is series I’d like to start/catch up/finish. I knew if I talked about series I wanted to start I’d be here forever, so I’ve just narrowed these down to the ones I need … More Series I’d Like To Continue/Finish | Top Ten Tuesday
I’m just managing to sneak in today with this next round of my most recent reads before this month is over. I’m hoping to finish one more book off later today, but for now here’s a mix of smutty monster romance, middle-grade sci-fi and an art history book? Yeah, I don’t understand how my brain … More Five Most Recent Reads | October 31st
I can’t believe how quickly October has gone by this year. I swear yesterday was September and now we’re about to head into November and, of course, NaNoWriMo. I did my first ever NaNo in 2011 and I think I’ve participated every year, with varying levels of success, so I knew I’d be joining this … More Getting Ready for NaNoWriMo
