hello, lovelies!
November was… a tumble. It was busy, busy, busy and I was looking forward for my week at home for Thanksgiving – and Happy Thanksgiving to you fellow Americans! – and it was absolutely lovely. I got to sit back, sit on actual cushions! and got to have ice in my water, both of which were luxuries I wasn’t used to from college.
Unfortunately, over break, I had a family member suffer a health crisis, which threw our break around all helter-kelter and I’m really hoping he comes out the other side of it ?✨ Hence why I’ve had to pick up some of my standard comfort reads this month: Like ACOMAF, Love Lessons, and Walk Through Fire.

A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas
I reread this book often, usually when I need a book to give me a hug ?✨ The feelings this book evokes (especially in the beginning) are absolutely unmatched and makes it a go-to when I need a book hug for relatability. (Goodreads | Amazon)
This was, by far and away, the most productive blogging month I’ve had… ever!! Which was originally last month, but I certainly blew that out of the water. I’ve actually been regularly posting at least twice or thrice a week, which is really exciting!! Last month and this month is a new milestone for me, for sure. College really worked out for me in the productivity-arena ? Click on the photo to take you to that post in a separate window.
Posts from this month, starting with October’s Wrap-Up :)
I have some fun blog tours and ARC reviews scheduled already, so look out for those! Other than that… just a normal blogging month for me :) I did have a month of Kindle Unlimited Reads last month, which was truly, very fun, so please check those reviews out if you’re even thinking of buying a subscription – which I do recommend.
How was your month of reading? What books are you looking forward to reading next month? Let me know in the comments below, I’d love to hear from you!
