Wrapping up 2021 // Reading over 100 books, getting back into old hobbies, and finally seeing friends

Ah 2021. Year two of the panini. A year of excitement and disappointment, little wins and big losses. In some respects, 2021 was like a dropped ice cream cone that’s slowly beginning to decompose in the midday sun.

In previous years, I’ve set reading goals and then haven’t stuck to them. At… Continue reading 2021 reading and blogging goals

April 2020 Wrap Up // Readathons, lockdown, and Booktube

I’ve been managing to consistently read 10 books per month since the start of 2020, so in April by aim was also to read 10. And yet somehow, I managed to read 13??? I’m still in shock to be honest. I think it was a combination of hosting a readathon and just being in the… Continue reading April 2020 Wrap Up // Readathons, lockdown, and Booktube

If you took part in any way, shape, or form,… Continue reading Easter Readathon 2020 wrap up

I started a Booktube channel???

That’s right folks, I did. I started a channel. This is something I’ve been thinking about doing since 2015. So five years ago. FIVE YEARS. But I never really had time during university, and once I finished I started working full time so it never happened. But every few months for the last two years,… Continue reading I started a Booktube channel???
