Get ready to be impressed! July brought two read-a-thons that I participated in, totaling 9 consecutive days. Both the 24 in 48 read-a-thon (reading for 24 hours within 48 hours) and the BookTube-a-Thon (reading 7 books in 7 days) were incredibly fun. I got a teensy bit exhausted by the end, yes, but not enough that I’m…
As some of you may know, I decided recently to start a Booktube channel over on YouTube! It’s very new and I’m just getting the hang of things, but I happened to join just in time for Booktube-a-Thon 2017! This is an event created by Ariel Bisset for readers all over the world to read…
Half the year is over and I can hardly believe it! Part of me thinks the amount of time I’ve spent reading has really helped to speed things along, but pretty much everyone I’ve talked to can’t believe July is already upon us. I don’t know what their excuses are, so who can say what…
Okay, spoiler alert: I did NOT do well on my June TBR list. Like, not at all. And I’m totally fine with that. This past month was hectic and full of new things and a lot of my reading fell by the wayside. Not to mention I began the month with A Storm of…
What an a-MAY-zing month! Okay, okay. I’ll see myself out. Kidding! It’s time to round up what all I read this month, see how that stacked up against my goals, say a few words about things that stood out and plan for June. Whew! Ready? Let’s get to it. May 2017 TBR List: A Clash of…
Where did April go? Am I the only one who seems to have missed it? Judging from the list I got read this month, maybe I was too busy reading to notice April blazing past. In either case, May is here with its new list to read and I can’t wait to get started! Check…
This early spring weather has had me jumping all over the place with my reading. Not much went according to plan this month! Sometimes deviating from the script is called for. I’m excited to get back on track this month (maybe) and get a lot more reading done. Come take a look at what I read…
Spring is truly upon us now! The weather here in Minnesota has been really amazing for February and it looks as though that will continue in March. I’ve certainly been enjoying the warmer temperatures and look forward to what March will bring both in terms of weather and reading! Here’s what I planned to…
We’re already a full month into 2017! We’ve hopefully adjusted to writing the new date, we’ve learned that people are going to keep right on dying in the new year and we’ve abandoned at least one resolution by now. What a year so far! How have you been doing on your reading goals? I…
So long, 2016! New year, new stack of books to read! I’ve also got a new system for planning my monthly to-be-read (TBR) lists using the app Trello. I’ll give you a more detailed look at how I use Trello to stay organized soon, but for now check out their site if you’re interested! Before…
My Thoughts Favorite Reread: My favorite reread this year was the Harry Potter series, without question. I love revisiting old favorites, but it had been far too long since I’d come back to HP and my whole being was craving it. I’m right at the end of The Deathly Hallows right now and will finish…
