My Year of Reading Dangerously
A BOOKISH ADVENTURE
Boy, I had a few set-backs this month. For one thing, I didn't take into account that one of the books I planned on reading this month was recently made into a film/mini-series adaptation, and thus all library copies were snatched up and had long waiting lists. For another, my summer classes are really kicking … Continue reading June Reading Wrap-Up
Well, despite all the craziness still abound, I think I picked myself up a bit more this month. I did a good job spacing my reading out and taking into account which books I might need more time with. I also am grateful I realized soon enough that I had a couple ARCs that I … Continue reading May Reading Wrap-Up
April was a real drag for me. I just didn't feel motivated to read. I managed to get through the majority of the books I planned to read this month, but I didn't finish Vicious in time. Still, I feel quite accomplished! This was the last month where I needed to read books for my … Continue reading April Wrap-Up
Boy, what a weird month! It started out fairly normal, and then halfway through, work is essentially cancelled and I find myself with a lot of free time while I wait out this health-crisis. Covid-19 has wreaked havoc on my life, but I've been keeping a positive attitude and have tried to think about things … Continue reading March Wrap-Up
February was so crazy for me! I felt like I was overwhelmed with books, but you know what, right down to the wire, I pulled it out and I managed to meet all of my goals! So here's a look back at what I accomplished this month: What I Read: The Poet X by Elizabeth … Continue reading February Wrap-Up
January was pretty good, as far as reading goals went. I only didn't finish one of the books I set out to read and that was mostly due to the fact that my hold was up and I had to return it to the library. But otherwise, pretty good start to 2020! What I Read … Continue reading January Wrap-Up
Thanks to Kristi @Confessions of a YA Reader, I've come across, and decided to participate in, the 2020 Diversity Reading Challenge hosted by Celebrity Readers. This challenge focuses on intentionally reading diverse books, which means either diverse characters or authors. For a clear idea of what they classify as diverse, follow this link to their … Continue reading 2020 Diversity Reading Challenge
I came across the Year of the Asian Reading Challenge last year and I've wanted to do it so badly! But I didn't discover it until October and I felt like I would want to start this challenge fresh at the beginning of the year, so it's now 2020 and my body is ready! My … Continue reading Year of the Asian Reading Challenge | #YARC 2020
This was a pretty stress-free reading month for me! Not only did I finish all my reading goals early, I also had some really good books come my way (my holds came up for me at just the right time at the library!). I read a bit more than I did last month and I … Continue reading December Wrap-Up
This month was a slow one for me! I barely got any reading done. Between a major project at work, homework that I needed to focus on, and books I had on hold coming up unexpectedly to distract me, I didn't meet the goals I wanted to meet. Still, I did finish at least a … Continue reading November Wrap-Up
