August 2020 Reading Sum-Up

I’ve been in a really weird reading mood the last few months and I feel like I’m finally breaking through it! Something about the fantasy genre is just not capturing my attention lately so I’ve been switching it up with great success. I managed to read six books this month despite being busier than everContinueContinue reading “August 2020 Reading Sum-Up”

June (& May) 2020 Reading Sum-Up

I spent this Pride month crying over Ronan Lynch and Adam Parrish hbu?? The past couple of months you may have noticed I have not really been around all that much. This is because I have been living in a small little bubble where the only things that matter are work, sleep and The RavenContinueContinue reading “June (& May) 2020 Reading Sum-Up”

March 2020 Reading Sum-Up

Much like the overall catastrophe that was the month of March 2020, so too will be my reading sum-up. Get ready, because this won’t take long. *ahem* This month was shocking. I read a grand total of three books. Three. Books. Pathetic. I am better than this. I am 100% blaming it not only onContinueContinue reading “March 2020 Reading Sum-Up”

Book Series I’m Determined to Finish This Year

So I have this really bad habit of leaving things unfinished. Book series, drawings, stories I’m writing, TV shows – seriously the list is endless. It frustrates the hell out of people I know (apologies to my bf and best friends), but this is just the way I am okay, I can’t help it! OrContinueContinue reading “Book Series I’m Determined to Finish This Year”

February 2020 Reading Sum-Up

This month was a hard month of reading for me (in many ways): Valentine’s Day (aka Hell Week if you’re a florist – which I am so..), just- wow okay. I think the shortest shift I did was like 12.5 hours so there was a major black hole in the middle of february that wasContinueContinue reading “February 2020 Reading Sum-Up”

January 2020 Reading Sum-Up

I don’t know about you, but I have a problem with buying new books. I can’t stop. The frequency with which I buy books is nowhere near the frequency with which I read them and the result is a towering stack of books I haven’t read stashed in a corner of my room judging me.ContinueContinue reading “January 2020 Reading Sum-Up”

SOS!! I’m in a Slump

Sort of. We all know of the dreaded reading slump (*gasp* THE HORROR). When no matter what book you pick up you just can’t seem to get into it. You read the same sentence over and over and over and it just doesn’t stick. It’s absolutely distressing. As someone who uses reading to relax, unwindContinueContinue reading “SOS!! I’m in a Slump”

February Reading Sum-Up

I had one of the best reading months I’ve had in a while which is surprising because my life was bullshit busy/intense this month and I can’t believe I found that much time to read! Somewhere between my wacked up work schedule and the craziness of starting a new degree at a new university (eepContinueContinue reading “February Reading Sum-Up”

New Year, Not A New Me

Hello 2019!!!!!! I’ve never really been that big on New Years’ resolutions and I’ve never understood the “new year new me” thing. I don’t think there’s some magic spell that makes you a new person once the clock strikes midnight. You are you. And you grow and change from year to year as life throwsContinueContinue reading “New Year, Not A New Me”
