Hello readers! It’s been like two weeks since I gave you guys any sort of update. I honestly wrote a Sunday post last week and then forgot to post it, but I’m not going to do it this time!
The reason I forgot to post it was because I was working on my post that came out yesterday. I had to add in 2014 to the stats and make all the 10 year stat charts as well. It was so fun to do! But, it took a really, really long time.
The Sunday Post and the thumbnail I’m using were created by The Caffeinated Reader. In The Sunday Post, you share news each week with your audience. This can be personal, book news, blog news, or anything else you want. Click the creator’s name for more details!
Life Update:
I am going to start something new, probably in March, that I’m working on right now. It’s a TBR game! I will film and post in on Booktok, but I’ll still let you guys know what I got over here.
I’m planning on doing a TBR wheel. I have already thought of a ton of prompts and I think it’ll help me read more from my backlist TBR and also to read more diverse books.
Other than that, I have just been reading a lot and getting back into Booktok. I honestly haven’t made many videos this past month.
On the Blog Last Week:
Tuesday – Tell Me Something Tuesday: Non-Bookish Hobbies
Thursday – World’s Worst Book Tag
Friday – Every Book I Own 22
Saturday – Comparing 10 Years of Reading Stats
Upcoming This Week:
Monday is a Down the TBR Hole post, Thursday is the Life in Books tag, Friday as the very last Every Book I Own post, and I also want to post my entire Kindle TBR this week. I hoped to post it Tuesday, but I don’t think it’ll be done by then. So, it could be a Saturday post if that is the case.
Reading Update:
I had a string of bad luck with books this month, so I have dramatically shifted genres. I have started the Red Rising series, and so far, I really love it.
It follows a 16 year old named Darrow who is one of many people who are trying to colonize Mars as Earth is no longer habitable. He lives underneath of Mars and everyone down there is told once humanity follows them that they’ll be heroes of the community. UNTIL, he finds out that everyone already lives in Mars and he is a slave.
I’m also reading Iron Flame. I’m about 20 chapters in at this point and honestly am not feeling much one way or another.
ARCs on my shelf:
These are the two ARCs that I currently have at the moment. Becoming Mallory comes out on February 6th and currently has a giveaway going on Goodreads!
War Mistress releases on March 1st and is the 2nd book in a monster romance series. The first book is on KU and I’m reading it really soon.
What I Watched:
So far this month, I have watched Masterchef Canada. I just finished season 2 of the show.
AND, I watched the Ted TV show with my husband. I honestly wasn’t sure if this series would be good or bad going in, but I honestly loved it. I didn’t love the last episode, or the fact that there are only 7 episodes. Why is this show so short?
This show is proof that Seth MacFarlane can be funny without being offensive. I really love Blaire’s character! She is a bisexual icon FR.
