TBR Jar ReadAThon Sign-Up & Throwback Event Announcement!

(IMAGE CREDIT GOES TO DUSKANGELREADS, READATHON HOST) My friend Liza at DuskAngelReads is hosting an awesome readathon in July called the TBR Jar ReadAThon! You can click here for more info, but the gist is that you set a goal, and between 12:00AM July 2nd and 11:59PM July 8th, you try to read as many books as you can out of your TBR jar. I decided to mix it with Life & Lit‘s July/August Throwback event, so I’ve created myself a...

April ’18 Wrap

April was a pretty quiet month for me at 16 books (I typically average 20-25). I hit a major fantasy slump, and then it progressed into a full-on everything slump. I spent about 2 weeks of this month reading a max of 50 pages a day. That said, over the last few days, I’ve gradually come out of that slump, and I still had some pretty good reads this month. (By the way, I read five books for the ApTHRILL challenge!)...

March ’18 Wrap

I had really big plans for March, but then Obsidio happened, and it gave me the worst book hangover I’ve had in ages, which in turn caused a slump so bad that I literally didn’t touch a book for almost a week (which is unheard of for me, as I make it a goal to read at least 30-60 minutes per day, everyday). That said, I came back out of my slump in the last week of the month and I’m...

February ’18 Wrap-Up

Despite February being the shortest month of the year, and the fact that I hit a miniature slump midway through the month, I’m still incredibly pleased with my reading achievements for the month! I had a few great buddy reads, knocked out a decent number of ARCs, and revisited a few old faves. <3 ! = ARC / SENT FOR REVIEW I’ll link to reviews wherever possible! Born a Crime ! The Poet X (review) Speak: The Graphic Novel (review)...

January ’18 Wrap-Up

It’s the end of the first month of 2018, and I don’t know about you guys, but I am extremely pleased with how much reading I got done this month! I managed to knock out quite a lot of ARCs, as well as some backlist titles I’d been meaning to read for a while. With my new semester starting a few weeks ago, I didn’t expect to read much in January, because one of my classes was supposed to be...

2017 Wrap-Up & Statistics

This is a little later than I intended for it to be, but here’s my final 2017 wrap-up! In previous years, I never thought I could’ve passed 50k pages read in a year. As a teen, I read a lot, but “a lot” back then was probably 40 books a year. In my early twenties, “a lot” was 2 books a month. To finish 208 books in one year, though? I am unspeakably proud of myself, and a little bit...

November ’17 Wrap-up

Another month has come and gone, and it’s time to enter the last month of the year (wow, already?!) – but before we do, I wanted to share with you guys how my November reading went! I know it’s technically the last day of the month right now, but I’m writing this with the assumption that I won’t complete any other books today. ?...

October ’17 Haul & Wrap-up

I’m so sad that October is over, but one good thing about the end of every month is writing up the end-of-month posts like this one! I have so much fun tallying up my stats and showing off my new goodies. I swore my haul this month would be nothing compared to last month’s, and while I stuck to my rule of buying almost nothing in October, I learned that I have some very amazing friends (and a wonderful fiance!) who gifted...
