Slightly belated (as always!) but I couldn’t very well keep up the monthly blogs all throughout 2022 and then leave off the last month of the year! This was the first Christmas/holiday season I’ve experienced not being in retail since I was literally a child, so in that sense it was quite nice – at … More December 2022: month in review
Happy 2023 TBIF’ers! I have a bit to catch up on from the last part of 2022, and I thought that I’d start the catch up with the second half of the Reading Challenge that I managed to successfully complete before 2022 was over and done. With the exception of one prompt, which I mentioned … More Dymocks Reading Challenge 2022 part 2
Suddenly it’s the ninth of December and I haven’t blogged in two months! Eek! I will be making up for this with an action-packed December of blogs planned – stay tuned! We have now bypassed spooky season and are solidly into the holiday period, but casting my mind back it was, once again, another busy … More October & November 2022: months in review
WHY IS TIME GOING SO QUICKLY I demand an explanation?! I cannot believe that it is already October and that we’re rocking towards the end of 2022. Suddenly my reading goals have to be crammed into these last few months of the year rather than ideally spread out as I had so perfectly curated them … More September 2022: month in review
August was, relatively speaking, a bit more of an average month with a bit more down time involved, which mean that my previously pretty miserly totals were up a bit! I tried to read a few more books that could tick off some more prompts for the Reading Challenge, but I mixed it up a … More August 2022: month in review
We are well and truly over the halfway point of the year now (scary!) so I’m a little bit behind on the Reading Challenge that Dymocks has produced for me and other booklovers this year; however I’m determined to finish it off! As is customary at this point on the blog now, I thought I’d … More Dymocks Reading Challenge 2022
July 2022 was a strange month, as I, for some reason or other, decided to agree to changing my body clock for 3 straight days for the second time in two years, and I did this voluntarily. Believe me, I was questioning myself more than once or twice during this whole process as I did … More July 2022: month in review
June was an interesting month – I finally had my string of avoiding Covid luck run out and was struck down in the first week of the month! Luckily I had a very mild case and I was basically fine the entire time – but being in isolation was a lot tougher than I ever … More June 2022: month in review
…and I thought that March was a poor effort! I got so far behind that I’ve had to combine April and May into one blog – which may not necessarily be the worst thing as April was one of the poorest months I’ve had in terms of turnaround for reading in a very long time. … More April & May 2022: months in review
Looking back on my blog from last month, I was hopeful that March would be more productive and prosperous in terms of my reading schedule and my plans for the blog. Boy was that hopeful indeed! In fact, it was the opposite, with April looking to be much the same as my work, study and … More March 2022: month in review
