    I’m Back!! | Life Update/2023 Wrap-Up

    Hey, everyone!! I am back! I know it’s been an extremely long time; I didn’t mean to disappear for ten months but life got busy, and blogging took a seat on the back burner. I was having a bit of blogging burnout in March. I stopped to focus on school, but then I was booked up for nearly the whole summer, then senior year started, which doesn’t really need an explanation, and now we’re here. So, a little life update. Here’s a quick rundown of the major things that have happened since last March and how my life is going now: Last school year:✈️ I went to Chicago for a…

    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…

    Top Ten Tuesday: Resolutions/Goals for 2021

    Hey everyone! Today I’ll be doing another Top Ten Tuesday. Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl where there is a topic and you make a list that best fits it. This week’s topic is Resolutions for 2021. READING GOALS: Number of books: I’d like to try to read at least 75 books this year. I’m the kind of person who reads one book at a time and the books I read usually have a few hundred pages in them, so I don’t read as many. Genre of books: I want to start expanding the different genres I read. I mostly read…
