11.30.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

November has been a weird month. I’ve been really stressed out with work and the general world, but I’ve had books to escape into which has been great. I have also officially beaten my reading record for 2019! In November, I read 28 books.

Ashley’s November TBR

11.01.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

I can’t believe it’s November and this year is almost over. I noticed this month that I am a little bit behind on some of my reading plans, so I’m hoping to check a few more books off my 28th year TBR and my ABCs reading challenge. You’ll find my reading plans below the cut.

Ashley’s October Haul and Wrap Up

11.01.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

October was a pretty great month. I always really enjoy reading things that are a little bit spooky and I need to make that a goal to try and read things that are spooky more often. It seems silly to limit it to one month of the year. Overall, it was a pretty good reading month in my opinion. I ended up reading 21 things, which I am pleased with. I also hauled a few books, and have decided to roll these two kinds of posts together.

While October doesn’t seem to be light on new releases, it does seem like it’s going to be a little bit easier on my wallet than the September releases were. There are just less books that I’m interested in this month. Let’s jump into it!
