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...

September ’17 Haul & Wrap-up

September is literally my favorite month to say goodbye to, because… well, y’know, it means October is starting, and – I really talk about my love for the month of October too much, don’t I? I had a pretty stellar reading month, and a shamefully good haul month, so let’s cut to the chase! September Wrap-Up Uzumaki: Spiral Into Horror ★★★☆☆ (mini review) Scott Pilgrim, Vol 2 ★★★☆☆ Fables, Vol 1 ★★★★☆ (mini review) I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings ★★★★☆ (mini review) I Shall...

#TheReadingQuest Wrap-up

#TheReadingQuest ended this past Sunday, September 10th, and I thought I would share my wrap-up with you guys! All but 2 of these have had reviews posted by now, and you can find those by scrolling through my blog’s home page feed, or going to my Review Index. (Here‘s my original TRQ post, in case you missed it, and here‘s the original challenge post) character quests: one word title: MOXIE book w/ magic: AN ENCHANTMENT OF RAVENS book w/ mythology:...

August ’17 Haul & Wrap-up

Another month has passed, and you know what that means… time for a haul and wrap-up post! I had a pretty decent reading month, and I stuck to my book ban fairly well! Though I did splurge on a few purchases, most of this month’s new additions to my shelves were given to me as ARCs. (Yay!) August Wrap-up Spellbook of the Lost and Found ★★★★★ (review) All the Crooked Saints ★★★★★ (review) The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue ★★★★★ (review) Flame...

July ’17 Haul & Wrap-up

Since last month was such a heavy haul, I went easy on the bank this month and stuck pretty well to my “nothing but kindle sales” book ban. I only purchased one physical book, and a few ebooks; the rest were ARCs and giveaway prizes! My reading this month was awesome, though, so I’ll start with my wrap-up! July Wrap-up The Only Alien on the Planet – Kristen D. Randle (review) ★★★★★ Just Listen – Sarah Dessen (review) ★★★★★ Final Girls – Riley...

June Haul & Wrap-up

This month looks like a bit of a doozy, but I’m actually proud to announce that I set myself a goal of only purchasing ebooks that were on sale, and BOTM books… and I succeeded! Well, almost.
