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!

Tag Tuesday | #bookhangovertag

07.16.2024 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

I have to admit that book hangovers aren’t typically something I experience.  I don’t usually finish a book and then find myself unable to start another one.  But, I do like to answer book tag questions, so let’s dive into it below the cut!

Tag Tuesday | #booksandbubblesbooktag

06.18.2024 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

I love the name of this tag, because in my mind books go perfectly with bubbles.  Reading has always been one of my primary forms of self-care, and one of my favourite things to do is to read in the bath.  And obviously, baths are made better with bubbles.  Let’s get into the questions below the cut!

Ashley’s March 2024 Book Haul and Reading Wrap Up

05.26.2024 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

March was an excellent reading month for me.  I had two weeks off for Spring Break, so I really made the best possible use of my time and read so much while I was off work.  It was a wonderful time and I read so, so many excellent books.  It’s partly why I’m so behind on Wrap Ups.  I found it pretty daunting to want to type up all the reviews for the books I read.  However, it’s finally time so you’ll find my reading wrap up and March haul below the cut.

February was a pretty good month for me.  It started a new semester, and that felt pretty light and nice.  I got a lot of great books, and I got some wonderful reading in.  You can see more about both of those things below the cut.

Selfie Saturday | 2024 Reading Resolutions

02.17.2024 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

Something about me is that I am an avid reader.  That might seem somewhat obvious coming from someone who has a book blog, but it is really true.  I read a lot.  It’s my favourite form of self-care, and I just love escaping into a different world and getting away from real life for a bit.  In order to be meaningful about my reading, I have decided to set some reading resolutions this year.
