Ashley’s January TBR

01.04.2021 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

I’m a bit late to the game, but I have a pretty decent TBR for January.  I had an excellent reading year in 2020, and while I know that I won’t surpass my reading total, I’m excited for the wide open potential of a new reading year.  So I felt like it would be fun to go over my January TBR.  **Disclaimer, I have already read a few of these books.

While October doesn’t seem to be light on new releases, it does seem like it’s going to be a little bit easier on my wallet than the September releases were.  There are just less books that I’m interested in this month.  Let’s jump into it!

Ashley’s October TBR

10.01.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

I cannot believe it’s October already!!! It’s been a crazy year, but I’m excited to load my TBR up with some spooky books! I’m also going to be participating in Sbooktober which is hosted by Paper Faerie, and some others.  I’m not sure if doubling up on prompts is okay for that readathon, but I’m going to roll with it and that’s what I’m doing.

Ashley’s September Wrap Up

09.30.2020 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

September has been a crazy month! It was back to school and since it’s not exactly a normal year, it’s been a bit hectic all around.  However, I still managed to read 15 books, which is not too shabby at all.  Also I got all but one of the prompts completed for the September back to school edition of The Loyal Book-a-Thon.  Let’s jump into all of the books that I read this month!  You’ll find them below the cut.
