Ashley’s June Wrap Up

06.30.2019 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

IMG_8950

June is always a crazy month in the life of a teacher.  You’re exhausted and ready for summer, and so are the kids.  Then it becomes time for report cards and you go a little crazy trying to get all the marks in so you can finalize the grades, and then you have to write comments.  To top all of that off, I also came down with a cold in June, so it probably wasn’t my best reading month ever.  That being said, I still read a fair few things and I really enjoyed a lot of them!  Without further ado, please check out my wrap up below the cut! 🙂

Ashley’s June Haul

I felt like I kept my book buying to a minimum in June.  I hauled six books, which is maybe not super reasonable in terms of shelf space but in comparison to some past months where I went a little crazy with my purchases, I felt pretty good about this one.  One was a preorder, one was from an order last month, one was from Owl Crate, and then three were from my trip to the bookstore with my boyfriend this month.  I’ve also already read two of these! 🙂 Without further ado, let’s jump into the list of books I hauled in June.

Tag Tuesday | Days of the Weeks in Books

06.25.2019 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

Reading is one of those equal opportunity hobbies.  You don’t need to schedule it; you can just fit it in whenever you want, and whenever you have time.  Personally, I like to read in every free second I can find.

A: When I was little I was obsessed with Nancy Drew books.  I’d take two out of the library each week and read them.  One year I joined this club at the local library and part of it was doing this newsletter thing that included an author profile.  I suggested Carolyn Keene because Nancy Drew was amazing so obviously so was the author.  Then the librarian told me that Carolyn Keene wasn’t real and it broke my little reader heart.

Hi friends 💙 So we all know Geralt is from the Hi friends 💙

So we all know Geralt is from the school of the Wolf. However, there’s also the Cat (also known to produce “evil”), Bear, Griffin, Viper, Manticore, and Crane. I think I’d like to be part of the Wolf or the Bear or Viper schools to be honest!

That being said, what are some of your favorite books with animals in them?

Hope your Sunday is going well. I just finished by case brief and compare and contrast for my class, so I’m feeling rather accomplished right now.

What are you currently reading?

Right now I’m reading A Song of Wraiths and Ruins. It’s so good!

I’m excited to pick up this badass lady series as well.
