Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. We are officially a month into 2024, which I find extremely hard to believe. But I say that pretty much every time I do a monthly wrap-up, so what else is new? I am back with my regular wrap-up for the month, minus the goals category. I’m going to stop doing those for a little while; I always set the same goals, and more often than not, I wouldn’t complete them. I may bring them back later, but I’m stopping them for now. BOOKS READ Warrior Girl Unearthed by Angeline Boulley|🎧|★★★★★First book of the year, and it’s a five-star read! I would…

Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. I am so sorry that I disappeared for over two weeks; I had not been planning to do that. It’s been a busy month and blogging has been set aside for a while. And I know I say this every month, but I’m hoping April will be better. But seeing as I’m going to be gone all of spring break, that might not work out so well. BOOKS READ Asian American Histories of the United States by Catherine Cenzia Choy|📖|★★★★I read this for English class for a project I’m doing. I learned so much from this, and it made me realize how…

Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. I have been pretty busy this past week and haven’t been able to work on posts as much. I’m hoping March will be a better month for the blog, so we’ll see. BOOKS READ I read 7 books this month, which I’m really surprised about! I had a busy schedule in February and it was a short month, so I didn’t expect to read almost twice as many books as I did in January. An Arrow to the Moon by Emily X.R. Pan|🎧|★★★.5The Chang’e inspiration is what initially drew me to the book. I liked the interwoven Chinese folklore. I didn’t love…

Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. Sorry for missing Friday; I didn’t have any posts completed and I had an evening event for school that I had to attend, so I didn’t get to finish anything. Today I have my wrap-up for January. It was a very cold and rainy month, made more unpleasant because my house doesn’t have heat at the moment. We haven’t had heat or AC since May 2022. It was a very cold winter. But, we should finally be getting our heat back sometime next week. Fingers crossed it actually happens. Also, we reached 200 followers!! Thank you to everyone who supports and has…

Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. Welcome to the last monthly wrap-up of the year! December wasn’t the greatest month for my family and I, so I hope that 2023 starts off better than 2022 ended. Let’s move into the wrap-up! BOOKS READ The Dragon’s Promise (Six Crimson Cranes #2) by Elizabeth Lim|📖|★★★★Shiori was amazing as always, in this book. I was glad we got to see more of Seryu, but thought he was going to be in more of the story, considering the title and the cover. Nevertheless, an exciting conclusion! Butterfly Yellow by Thanhha Lai|📖|★★★★I loved the mix of English and Vietnamese in this. Hằng and…

I literally forgot that wrap-ups were a thing. I was thinking about what post to put out today and I realized on Saturday that I hadn’t started a wrap-up post for November. Luckily, I was able to get this done on time. One more month until 2023! BOOKS READ The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea by Axie Oh|📖|★★★★This has those Spirited Away vibes, as it was pitched. The worldbuilding and relationships were my favorite part of the story. Mina and the trio were amazing, as well as Mina with Mask, Dai, and Miki. Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman|📖|★★★★I’m not sure what I was expecting with these stories, but it…

It does not feel like it’s been a year since my last October wrap-up. I started writing this post and it hit me that it’s already been a year since the last one. I distinctly remember writing my October wrap-up for 2021. It was my first post after my hiatus and it was really long because I did two months for it. Time flies way too fast. BOOKS READ The Sunbearer Trials (The Sunbearer Duology #1) by Aiden Thomas|📖|★★★★.5|my reviewThe Mexican-inspired world, the high stakes of the trials, the amazing characters and representation all combined to make a fantastic book. This is definitely my favorite book by Aiden Thomas! Gallant…
