December Wrap-Up | A Cold But Otherwise Okay End to the Year
Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. Happy New Year’s Eve! We are so close to 2022 and I can’t believe it. This is the last time I am going to say this: How did 2021 go by so fast? It’s like I blinked and the year was over. Are we ready for 2022? I don’t know. This is my last post of the year, which is kind of crazy, honestly. BOOKS READ I read 5 books which I’m happy about. I didn’t really stick to my TBR, but I read 2 out of 3 books that I planned to read this month, plus a couple others. The Nightingale…

November Wrap-Up | Lots of Reading and Time With Family and Friends
Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. We are on to the last month of the year, can you believe it? 2022 is right around the corner, which is really shocking. I say this a lot, I know–you probably get tired of listening to me talk about it, but whatever. We’ll still talk about it. But for now, I’ll spare you that and instead of talking about the future, I’ll talk about the past: my wrap-up for November! BOOKS READ I managed to read 5 books this month, which I’m really happy about! I did not think that I would get to this many, but two of them I…

September & October Wrap-Up | Back From Hiatus, Blog Redesign, and New Blogging Schedule (maybe?)
Hello, hello, everyone! I am back! It’s been over a month since my last post and I’m happy to say that the break I took was really good for me. I was gone for a lot longer than I expected but school was taking up most of my time and I wasn’t feeling ready to come back yet. But I have returned and am excited to resume blogging! I’m going to be doing two months in this wrap up, as well as give you some updates about the blog, so let’s get into it! Oh and by the way, where did this year go? I know I say this in…

August Wrap-Up | School Started and I’m Exhausted
This month was exhausting. It was pretty good overall but so many things happened. I’ll talk a but more about what’s going on later in this post, but for now, let’s go through the past month. BOOKS READ I only managed to read 2 books this month, which is my lowest yet. These Violent Delights told me a long time to get through and I didn’t have that much time to read, unfortunately. And also, I did not stick to my TBR I was planning to do at all this month. These Violent Delights (These Violent Delights #1) by Chloe Gong|★★★★1/2I loved this book so much! All of my incredibly…

July Wrap-Up | Very Busy, Not Exactly in a Good Way
Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. These months keep flying by and it’s like I can’t keep up. This month kept me so busy, I didn’t have a lot of time to focus on the things I wanted to do like writing and being active on my blog and others. Nevertheless, this month still went okay. BOOKS READ The Weight of the Stars by K. Ancrum| ★★★★1/2I started out not loving this book, I didn’t get what the hype of it was. But then the ending came and I discovered that it is brilliant. The last 20ish percent of the book had so many emotions in it and…

June Wrap-Up | An Uneventful but Productive(ish) Start to Summer Break
This post is later than usual, I know. I kind of forgot that June was ending and I also procrastinated, so this wrap up comes almost a week late. Also, did I say another month could pass by? We’re already half way through 2021. Craziness. June was pretty uneventful, but it was still pretty good. BOOKS READ I managed to read 5(ish) books this months! It wasn’t great and I only made it through half my TBR for the month (which, evidently, I set way to high), but I think I did okay. I also really enjoyed all the books I read, which was great! Picture Us in the Light…

May Wrap-Up and June Goals
Time flies way too fast. Every time I do a monthly wrap-up, it feels like it should not be this far into the year. But yet, it is. I had a pretty good month, things weren’t too bad. I hope yours was good as well. This month, I sadly only read two books. I started Strange the Dreamer near the beginning of the month, but it took a little while to get into because of the different writing style, and it’s very long, so that’s the major book I’ve been reading this month. Here are the two I completed: The Half-Orphan’s Handbook by Joan F. Smith ~ ★★★★☆ ~ My…

April Wrap-Up and May Goals
Wow, another month gone by. April went by way too fast. I only have about a month left of school. It’s crazy! I swear the school year only started a little while ago. But time flies, right? So, let’s review the month, shall we? I didn’t read too many books this month. I started reading a bit later this month though, because I didn’t have any books to read since they were all being delivered. But I think I still got a decent amount done. The Secret of Nightingale Wood by Lucy Strange ~ ★★★.5 ~ My ReviewI really enjoyed reading this book. I thought that the grief and depression…

March Wrap-Up and April Goals
I can’t believe it’s already the end of March. It feels like 2021 started only a few weeks ago. The year is going by so fast, yet it feels so slow at the same time. Anyways, today I have my wrap-up for March and some goals for April. I read 5 books this month, which isn’t bad. All of the books I read I enjoyed as well, so I’m happy about that. Across the Universe (Across the Universe #1) by Beth Revis ~ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ~ My Review I really enjoyed the first book in this trilogy. It was slightly slow at the beginning, but the storyline was intriguing and Godspeed…

February Wrap-Up and March Goals
Hello everyone! Can you believe that we’re already two months into 2021? I can’t. A lot has happened this month, so here’s my wrap-up for February. Winterkeep by Kristin Cashore ~ ★★★★.5 ~ My Review Winterkeep was a really exciting book. I loved the new characters that were introduced, as well as Torla, the new continent that is discovered. The Princess Bride by William Goldman ~ ★★★★ ~ My ReviewReading The Princess Bride was so fun. After seeing the movie so many times, I enjoyed reading about the scenes and finding out even more. It was a great action, adventure packed love story. Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon ~ ★★★.5…
