Do these make you happy? I hope so. It brings me joy to have a life at this time. Books are amazing. Is there a body part you have any amazing quote about? Let me know!

September 2026 Wrap Up

Another slow month. I feel like life keeps throwing things in my path to stop me from reading. It's okay. I was able to read some AMAZING books. As Sephie is finishing her recovery, she was able to read more. She shares what she's been reading.

August 2026 Wrap Up

This one is short and sweet (with a bunch of spice too!). I knew I had a lighter reading month ahead of me, so I'm happy with what I got to.

July Reading Wrap Up

Almost half my books were audiobooks! It didn't help that I left my kindle on a trip and had to wait for it to be returned to me. I will never prefer reading on my phone.

June Reading Wrap Up

What happened to June? I shared the 9 books I finished that month. I had a blast talking to Sephie, but still can’t figure out how I read so little.

May 2026 Reading Wrap Up

Two double digit months! This was an odd one because so many of these were audiobooks. I don't tend to have that high a percentage of my reading be audio. I enjoyed my choices.

April Reading Wrap Up

I am reading! And reading a little bit more. I share all the books I read in April, up to our recording date. Final reading and purchasing stats will be in the show notes.

February & March Reading Wrap Up

Getting back in the groove… a little bit. I had very light reading months as I recover. It was nice to share with Sephie, even if the amount is less than we are used to. I’m going to continue to “soft DNF” when I’m not feeling a book anymore. I highly recommend joining me in this.

January 2026 Reading Wrap-Up

I share with Sephie all the books that I read in January. This was a small reading month for me. Self-care is more important right now as I prepare for medical leave.

December 2025 Wrap Up

I had a hellish end to my 2025. I'm okay, but it greatly affected my reading. I talk about all of them with Michael.

(He lets me ramble more than Sephie. Lol!)

August 2025 Reading Wrap Up

This was my recovery month from the summer, so I didn’t read much, but I’m really proud of the reading I did do.

July 2025 Reading Wrap Up

July was rough. Dealing with health issues took so much out of me. I was barely functioning. It affected my reading more than I expected.

May 2025 Reading Wrap Up

I read 20 books in the month of May. Even though it's a smaller reading month for me, I hit both of my diversity goals.

March 2025 Reading Wrap Up

This month had a bunch of different reading agendas: ARCs, long books, TRR, and all my regular reading. I feel like I had a lot of wins, and a few books that were not for me.

February 2025 Reading Wrap Up

This was a rough reading month for me. I was in a slump and had a few books that weren’t for me. That’s okay. Not all books are for all people.

January 2025 Reading Wrap Up

**This is my spoiler alert.**

Check the notes for all the books I read in case you don’t want one of them spoiled.

Thanks!

What a year it has been! I read WAY more books than expected. Found a TON of new to me authors. And some new favorites!

I also hit my diversity reading goals and have decided to change some things in 2025.
