February was an unexpectedly good reading month for me. I ended up reading 32 books, which is amazing considering it’s more than there are days in the month. I’m really impressed with myself, especially since I hit my goal of 50 books minimum this year. I also picked up some really exciting books this month. You’ll find them all below the cut!

Ashley’s January Haul and Wrap Up
January marked the start of a brand new reading year. I’m excited for a fresh start and to read some really good books. I’m hoping to be able to tick more books off of my physical TBR, so I’ve joined a TBR challenge through bookstagram. Five of the books I read this month are from that.

Ashley’s December Wrap Up and Haul
I honestly can’t believe that December is coming to a close and that 2020 is wrapping up. This has been a hard year, but it’s also had some good moments for me personally. That being said, I am glad that it’s coming to an end and am hoping for even better things in 2021. I had a pretty decent reading month this month, and I hauled a few books. I’m just going to jump into those now, but you’ll find them below the cut.
Top 5 Thursday | Ashley’s Best Reads of 2020
I had an amazing reading year in 2020. I read way more books than I expected I would read and more than I probably will ever read in a year again. It was a messy year, but I read a lot of books which is pretty great. This is going to be a quick overview of my favourite books that I read this year. It is also going to be a few more than the top 5, so I’m sorry about that.

Ashley’s October Haul and Wrap Up
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.
