Bookish Wrap Up | December
Hello Readers,
Firstly, let me just apologise for the lateness in sharing my December 2022 Wrap Up with you all. I’ve had other things that have need my energy and sadly this little place has been a bit neglected ~ I’m still trying to figure out a nice balance of the things I want to do with the amount of energy I have and it’s such a struggle. I’m often reminded of the line in Little Women when someone tells Jo she should have been a Lawyer and her response is “I should have been a great many things!” Well I want to do a great many things but the limits imposed on me by my body make that difficult, so sometimes there are things I have to forgo at times. But I’m hoping I’m find that nice balance of a schedule at some point ~ send good vibes for that actually happening!
Bookish Wrap Up | November
Hello Readers,
I can’t believe it’s already December! This year seems to have gone by so quickly and November felt like it went by just as quick.
It’s been a pretty good reading month in the amount I’ve been able to read and there’s one book I’ve read that is definitely on my top reads of the year. So without further ado, let me tell about the books I’ve read this month…
June Bookish Wrap Up
Hello Readers,
I just don’t know where the months seem to be going because it feels like it wasn’t that long ago when I sat down to write my May Wrap Up!
Compared to last month, I didn’t read as much but I did pick up one of the chonkier {it’s a word} books on my TBR and read that this month, so that’s like reading two of three “normal” length books as it’s just over 600 pages. So without further ado, let me tell you about the books I’ve managed to read during June…
May Bookish Wrap Up
Hello Readers,
I hope May was a kind month to you all and you managed to read some enjoyable books. I somehow managed to read 8 books this month, 3 via audiobook, and I thoroughly enjoyed all of them. So let me tell you all about them…
April Bookish Wrap Up
Hello Readers,
I hope April was a kind month for you all and that you enjoyed any books you were able to read.
I actually had a decent reading month and managed to read quite a few books ~ thanks to reading some via audiobooks. So here are the books I read and my thoughts on them…
March Bookish Wrap Up
Hello Readers,
I know I’m a week late with this wrap up but things have been a little everywhere over these past few weeks. But I’m hoping things are finally starting to settle down and my normal writing schedule will be back in the next week or so.
Okay, let’s review all the books I’ve managed to read during March shall we?
February Bookish Wrap Up
Hello Readers,
I hope your February went as well as possible. I know there’s a lot going on in the world right now and I feel like a wrap up of the books I’ve read during the past month seems really insignificant compared to the everything. But as always, I want my little space on the Internet to be a safe, cosy place that you can come to for a little bit of a breather and hopefully find a new book to escape into when the world gets too much for you. I just really hope you’re all taking care and keeping safe.
As for this month regards to reading, I started four books, DNF’d one of them and finished the other three. So without further ado, let me tell you about them…
January Bookish Wrap Up
Hello Readers and Happy February!
I hope you’ve read some lovely books this past month. I’ve personally had a good reading month and I’m looking forward to sharing what I’ve read and my thoughts on them with you.
I’ve managed to read 8 books this month, so let’s get straight into them shall we?
December Bookish Wrap Up
Hello friends and Happy 2022!
It’s time to wrap up the final books I read in 2021. December was the month in which I continued a couple of series, finished the last book in a series and read an entire series. So without further ado lets get into the books…
November Bookish Wrap Up / December TBR
Hello friends,
It seems like it’s been a while since I did a Bookish Wrap Up since I missed October ~ I only read Dune that month and I wrote a full review on it here, in case you missed it. November was a quiet reading month as well as I read two books this past month. So instead of this being a really short wrap up, I thought I’d include my December TBR at the end.
So let’s get into the books…
September Bookish Wrap Up
Despite the fact that I was hosting my Book Club’s One Year Anniversary Readathon, personally this month was a bit up and down and that definitely had an impact on my reading…
But don’t worry because audiobooks have been my saving grace, so here’s what I’ve been listening to along with the only book I physically read this month:
August Bookish Wrap UP
It’s been an amazing reading month and I was so surprised to see how many books I’ve been able to read this month as I was gathering them all up for this article ~ 7 in total at the time of writing this and part way through my 8th! Also only two of these books come under the Sci-Fi genre, the rest are mainly contemporaries. I did plan this to be the case as I have a few contemporaries I wanted to get ticked off my TBR and August seemed like a good month to do that. But yeah, it’s still surprising that I read so many non-sci-fi books in one month!
So let me tell you all about them…
July Bookish Wrap Up
Don’t panic, it’s not the beginning of August yet. I’ve just decided to publish my July Wrap Up a week early as I have a book tour book review {details below} that needs to be published in the first of August and instead of trying to deal with two articles in one week, I thought I’d just move up my Wrap Up.
So let’s get straight into the books shall we?
June Bookish Wrap Up
I know it’s been a little while since I published a post here and that’s because I decided to take a little writing break. After managing to publish two articles a week during May, I really needed some time out but due to obligations, I couldn’t take a break until mid-June. But I’m back, feeling ready to get writing again and what better way to start than to tell you all about the books that I read during June!
May Bookish Wrap Up
I hope May was a kind month for you all and you were able to read some lovely books. I managed to read three books in May and all were enjoyable. May was quite an exhausting month due to it being M.E Awareness Month and I had a number of nights when I could barely read a page before needing to sleep. But that’s okay and managing to read three books is still good going.
April Book Wrap Up
I decided to post my April Wrap Up a little early as May is M.E Awareness Month and I have a number of posts planned around that for the month. So I didn’t want my Wrap Up to get missed or mixed up with those articles.
I didn’t really have a set TBR for April, just an idea of what I wanted to pick up. So in total I managed to read six books, three physically and three via audiobook. Here’s my mini reviews on the books I’ve managed to read in April:
February Bookish Wrap Up
How was your February? I hope it was a kind one and you were able to read a book or two. I read a total of three books this month, two physical and one audiobook, plus one play. Here’s what they were, along with my thoughts…
January Bookish Wrap Up
Welcome the first of the new format of my Monthly Wrap Up articles! I realised that trying to do a more favourite based wrap up just wasn’t working for me by the end of last year, as most of the things in my life that I love, don’t really change much from month to month. So rather than simply repeat myself each month ~ that’s not fun for you to read or me to write ~ I’m going to make my wrap ups purely about the books I’ve read within each month. So each month, I’ll write little mini reviews, which will hopefully help those of you that are looking for books read.
December Wrap Up
I said in my November wrap up that I would be publishing my December a little earlier than usual just so I can take a break from writing and posting ready to start again in the new year. So here we go, here’s a few things I’ve been enjoying over the past few weeks of December.
November Wrap Up
With the start of December upon us, it’s time for my monthly wrap up post. November didn't have the best of starts but overall, in comparison with how my December has started, it wasn’t that bad really. So within further ado, let me tell you about a few things that I’ve been enjoying this past month…
