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.

The Loyal Book-A-Thon | Summer Edition

05.25.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

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.

Ashley’s May TBR

05.02.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

And here we are in May, and I genuinely don’t know where the time went.  April was one of those months that went incredibly quickly, but yet also seemed to drag on.  I also participated in two readathons which made me have this crazy incredible reading month. I don’t think that I will have that good of a reading month this time around, and I’m definitely putting far less pressure on myself to read a ton.  However, I do still have some reading plans for the month of May, and you’ll find them below the cut.

Ashley’s April Wrap Up

05.01.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

This was a crazy reading month for me.  I felt really slumpy back in March and then had to transition into working from home.  I expected that I wouldn’t really get a lot of reading done this month despite participating in both the OWLs Magical Readathon and our Loyal Book-a-Thon.  I figured I’d read those, and that would be about it.  However, I ended up getting through a lot of books and finished off both readathons pretty early in the month.  Working from home meant that I could listen to audiobooks while working, and it’s made me a lot more efficient reader.  So I’m pretty proud of the fact that in April I read 34 books/novellas.  You’ll find everything I read below the cut. 🙂

Ashley’s April Haul

04.29.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

What a weird month this has been! I’ve been doing a ton of reading, but not a lot of book buying, which is probably for the best.  However, I did still end up with some books this month so we’re going to do a quick and dirty haul for you today.

Book Review | Find Me by André Aciman

04.08.2020 by Kari // Leave a Comment

916J-aNjuHLCall Me By Your Name was one of my favorite reads last year. After I read the book, we had to go out and get the movie to watch as well. It’s definitely not a story for everyone, but for me it was a beautiful love story that left me wanting more. When I heard Find Me was going to be published, I knew that I needed to read it as soon as possible.

Tag Tuesday | Five Finger Tag

04.07.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

I love how people draw inspiration for these bookish tags from the most everyday of things. Personally there are some things I would change on this tag, but it’s not mine so I’m rolling with the punches here. Check out my answers below the cut.
