Hello Readers! If you take a look back at My July TBR, you’ll see I read all of the books I had planned plus some. I spent most of the month on a blogging hiatus, which allowed me even more time to read, although, I didn’t read much the first week. I read 7 books, …

June 2023 Monthly Wrap-Up & Book Haul
Hello Readers! If you take a look back at My June TBR, you’ll see I read 5 of the 7 books I had planned. My TBR changed mostly because of books on my Libby waitlist becoming available. I did read a total of 6 books and 1 short story, with a total of 2,051 pages. …
May 2023 Monthly Wrap-Up
Hello Readers! I haven’t done much blogging or reading the past week, and the end of the month snuck up on me. My husband took the last week of the month off from work, but we didn’t go anywhere, opting to stay home and tackle some projects here. We spent some time getting the yard …
April 2023 Monthly Wrap-Up
Hello Readers! Another month has flown by, and we’re finally enjoying some warmer and dryer weather here. I was able to sit outside and read for a little yesterday evening, which was nice! I read 7 books and one short story this month, for a total of 2,250 pages. For the first time in a …
March 2023 Monthly Wrap-Up
Hello Readers! Why is it that March felt like it simultaneously lasted forever AND flew by?? I stayed busy participating in the Trope-ical Readathon (here’s My Wrap-Up), and while I didn’t cross off every challenge, I’m still happy with how I did. Thanks to the readathon, I managed to read 8 books, 1 novella, and …
February 2023 Monthly Wrap-Up & Book Haul
Hello Readers! I had a surprisingly good reading month (for me) in February. Especially since one of the the books I read was 800 pages. Most of the books I read this month were also from my backlist, which made me very happy. I know it’s only two months in, but so far my ARC …
January 2023 Monthly Wrap-Up
Hello Readers! As I’m writing this, we’re in the midst of a winter ice storm here in Texas. Thankfully, it doesn’t seem to be as bad as the last storm we had in 2021. But it definitely made me want to snuggle down and read, and I was able to squeeze in one more book …
December 2022 Monthly Wrap-Up & Book Haul
Hello Readers! Happy New Year! First a little life update… December was a whirlwind for me. We took a fast and furious last minute trip to New York City when my husband needed to go for work (I’ve included a few highlights below)—which meant I didn’t decorate or shop for Christmas until I returned. A …
November 2022 Monthly Wrap-Up & Book Haul
Hello Readers! November was a struggle for me. I participated in my 9th NaNoWrimo (National Novel Writing Month), but once again I was a #NaNoRebel, working on an existing project, which is never as fun as creating something new and shiny. I sludged through, wrapping up a day early, desperate to be done. BUT, I …
October 2022 Monthly Wrap-Up & Book Haul
Hello Readers! October breezed right by for me. I’ve been loving the cooler weather here in Texas, and if someone forced me to choose, I think fall would be my favorite season. It means all the holidays are coming and I can consume all the hot drinks. We made our annual pilgrimage to our state …
