Ashley’s May Wrap Up

05.31.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

May marked another month of me working from home, so it meant that I listened to a lot of audiobooks again.  However, I also got to read some physical books, and I checked some of the beefier reads off my TBR.  Overall, it was a really good reading month and I felt like I really enjoyed a lot of the things that I read.  Everything that I read can be found below the cut!

Ashley’s May Book Haul

05.30.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

May was another weird month, but I think that all of the months will be weird until this whole pandemic ends.  I ended up succumbing to my book buying urges this month and picked up an order from Book Outlet because they had some crazy sales going on.  I also picked up a couple of other books.  You’ll find them below the cut.

Hello friends!  Kari and I were feeling inspired and in need of reading inspiration and are planning our next edition of The Loyal Book-A-Thon readathon in June.  As summer starts in June, we decided to do one with prompts inspired by summer, which is arguably one of the best seasons in the year.

Misc Monday | Book Cover Outfits

05.25.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

People have been getting so creative during this pandemic.  Personally, I haven’t been, but I have found some inspiration from places like Book Twitter, and BookTube.  One trend that I found that I think is really cool is this whole book covers as outfits trend.  I really, really wanted to do it but was nervous because my wardrobe isn’t extensive.  I also wanted to play with makeup, but I’m not particularly talented at it.  However, I thought it could be a fun blog post, so you’ll find that below the cut.

Writing Wednesday | Things I Learned from #YALLSTAYHOME

05.20.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

There was one good thing that came out of this pandemic for me, and that was the fact that I was able to attend webinars for #YALLSTAYHOME.  YALLWEST/YALLFEST are events that I’ve always thought it would be fun to attend.  However, due to the nature of my job and the timing of the events, I have known that I will never be able to actually attend them.  Fortunately for me, the regular event was cancelled and then reformed as a virtual event where participants could tune in from the comfort of their own couches.  I was so excited to get the chance to hear some of my favourite writers speak.

A: I don’t usually read nonfiction or memoirs.  I prefer to dive into fiction and escape from real life.  However, I just finished Know My Name by Chanel Miller and it was beautifully written and devastating.  I also recently finished Belonging by Nora Krug and it was fascinating.  So I might have to check out more memoirs in the future.

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?

Hi friends! 💙 Hope your Sunday is going well. Hi friends! 💙

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.
