Wrapping It Up! November 2018 | More

When writing my October wrap up, I said the month was rather bleak because I’d only read seven books. Well, in November I also read just seven books, but somehow it felt like a much better month. I suppose that’s because I enjoyed the books I read much more this month than last. More than one might even end up on my Best Books fo 2018 list. Like so many others, I also had a lot of fun with Nonfiction November this month, making for a nice break from the usual fair. And now it’s onto that big end of the year push including a few different “best of” lists and a winter preview all set to publish in mid-December.

Wrapping It Up! August 2018 | More

Ahhhh, summer! Where did you go? If you’re anything like me, you’re in a little bit of mourning over the end of summer. I know it’s technically got a few more weeks, but September never feels like summer to me. My August started out with a sprained wrist, a black eye and stitches in my forehead, so it could only go up form there! And it did, including getting through nine books, at least one of which will likely end up on my “best of 2018” list this year. With nine books a month for the last three months, I’m now about ten books ahead on my Goodreads goal for the year. (Good thing because fall is always busy!) I hope your August in books and life was wonderful.

Wrapping It Up! October 2017 | More

Somehow October turned out to be a big month for me. I finished ten books! I probably shouldn’t have finished ten, but in the midst of a slump that started in September (possibly even August), I pushed through at least one book that should have been a clear DNF. While I don’t feel fully broken out of that slump, things are looking up. I’ve really liked several books in a row, and am currently in the middle of one that is wowing me. But, back to October books!

Wrapping it Up! February 2017 | More

February, the shortest month of the year, certainly flew by! There is much I don’t generally like about February. It’s still cold and wet, everyone seems to be sick, and my heating bill….egad! However, there is much to love, too. Valentine’s Day, or at least the sentiments that go with it, a week off in the middle, and best of all daylight is returning a little more each day. Spring is just around the corner! With just 28 days, I managed to squeeze in 7 books.

Books Read in February:

We Were the Lucky Ones by Georgia Hunter, Grade A (reviewed on 2/14/17)
A Separation by Katie Kitamura, no grade, (audio – discussed on 2/23/17) …
