Ashley’s July 2025 Book Haul and Reading Wrap Up

08.01.2025 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

July was such an excellent month.  I love being on summer vacation and getting to just hang out at home and have fun with my husband and friends.  It was so, so wonderful to be able to just read a whole bunch.  I did also go a little crazy on books hauled, but I have already read some of them, so I like to pretend that that makes it okay.  Below the cut you will find everything I read and hauled in July!

Ashley’s May 2024 Book Haul and Reading Wrap Up

06.05.2024 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

May has been a busy month.  It’s usually report card time and that makes me busier than usual. However, when I’m stressed I tend to read more than I usually might, so It’s been a pretty decent reading month too.  Let’s cut to the chase and jump into what I’ve read this month below the cut.

Ashley’s October 2023 Book Haul and Reading Wrap Up

11.04.2023 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

October was a really busy month for me when it come to stress and all that, so I think I might have overcompensated by reading a whole lot more than I would have thought.  Escapism is always fun.  However, on the whole, it was a really good reading month and I read a lot of really wonderful things.  I also got some really exciting books in.

Ashley’s August 2023 Book Haul and Review

09.03.2023 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

August was such a strange but lovely month.  I took time to enjoy being a newlywed, and then I started getting ready to go back to work, despite there being a heck of a lot procrastination involved in that as well.  I’m very good at procrastinating.  I did, however, end up doing a fair bit of reading, and some particularly good reading.  It was an excellent month all told.

Ashley’s April 2023 Book Haul and Reading Wrap Up

07.11.2023 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

I am a bit behind on my hauls and wrap-ups.  I ended up getting very busy at the end of the school year and when I came home from work I had little energy for anything outside of just sitting on my couch and recovering.  However, now it’s summer break so I’m going to try and do some catching up.  So here is what happened for me book-wise in April.  I will admit that the book haul was a little crazy but that’s only because I made a Book Outlet order.  Oops.  I also read 25 books, which is pretty good.
