February is always an interesting month. It was a very strange month natural event wise. We had a bunch of snow here, which led to snow days and not fun teaching circumstances. We also had an actual earthquake. There was also a power outage one day. On the whole, it was a hectic month. But on the plus side, it was a fun month. I did a reading retreat with friends, and read a new all time favourite book.
I love a fresh start to a reading year. It’s fun to look at the potential and see what books it might bring. Outside of all that potential, January was pretty stressful and busy as I was wrapping up a semester. However, I did successfully make it through.
December was such a lovely month. It was my birthday and Christmas. My husband also got me a book advent calendar. It was such a great time. I was so spoiled, and I read some really excellent books.
October was a great month. I always enjoy the excuse to read all kinds of spooky books among other things. I suppose, I dont’ really need a reason to read spooky books but it’s fun to have one. I also got in some pretty great books this month. Let’s dive into it!
