I may have picked up a new craft to work on in 2021. And I cannot confirm or deny I spent way too much at Zulily's 2021 Christmas crafts stock-up sale on some really cute Christmas cross-stitch designs. 🤦🏼♀️
Finally sitting in bed after a very long Christmassy day and week, with my perfect present, my 2021 Bibliophile Planner and some gorgeous Gustav Klimt bookmarks.
As much as I'd like to curl up and read a book right now, I think I'm ready to fall asleep, in my Christmas clothes!
Can't wait to have a look at my new planner and use these gorgeous bookmarks.
Happy Christmas everybody 🎁🎅📚🤶🎄
December. The last month of the year & of 2020.
I love this diary (& its bookstacks) so much that I have bought next years bibliophile as a Xmas gift for myself, & a pack of 12 Klimt bookmarks as well, quite a lovely gift, don't think anyone knows me well enough to top that, lol!
I will post a pic of these lovely treasures soon
Thanks for being such a nourishing diary. You will soon go into my diary collection.
Who else keeps their old diaries?
Catching up on my monthly Bibliophile page posts.
Ooops, I forgot November, here it is! Travel with books
The Book Thief by Markus Zusak was a great read earlier this year.
On my shelf are, Daughter of Fortune by Isabella Allende, Julius Ceasar by Shakespeare and Doctor Zhivago by Boris Pasternak all on my TBR.
I've just borrowed The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett in e-book format, inspired from this awesome book stack. Love delving into new-to-me authors 🤩
This is Septembers bookstack from my beautiful (currently unused) diary.
Looks like lots of kids books here. I think I've only read 4, but a few of these are on my TBR.
How many have you read?
August bookstack from my beautiful, yet almost untouched, 2020 diary. No appointments to date, no work dates to fill, but I did get to mark down the Zoom watch meeting this Friday to watch Emma with some Litsy folk. Thanks to @sprainedbrain 😉
6 of these books on my TBR and one read book, who hasn't read Where The Wild Things Are??
I seem to have left July behind and did not post the bookstack from my Bibliophile 2020 diary.
Amending that now.
I only own 2 of these books in this stack (Angela's Ashes and First They Killed My Father), but there are a few others here on my TBR.
I found the audiobook of I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings on YouTube so I'm definitely looking forward to that when the time comes.
My monthly post from my gorgeous 2020 Diary!
June, my birthday month 🐞
May's bookstack.
For being a naturally creative person, I'm surprised that I only own 1 of these books.
All the more to look out for on my next book splurge 😉
Welcome April!
Here is a gorgeous book stack for this month in my Bibliophile Planner.
I only own 2 of these but I love having these book stacks as a reference for future reading choices.
When I was a teen I used to often dream of accidently being locked in a library for weekend or even over the school holidays, so I could read the entire time.
I think my dream has a little bit come true....
My library is fully stocked and I am Iso ready!
March is now past but as I was on holiday at the turn of March, I completely forgot to post the opening page for the month.
Here is the March book stack from my still adoringly beautiful Bibliophile planner for 2020.
The Bell Jar, still sitting patiently on my bedside table...
And about 9 others from this stack are on my shelves, also patiently awaiting 🙂
A great stack for March!
Biblio Book stack for February
I own 9 from this stack but I have only read one of these books (Forever by Judy Blume - when I was in Primary School!) And I'm halfway through Outlander.
The Fault in our Stars is on my TBR for this year.
Which ones have you read or could recommend?
January's book stack page from my beloved Bibliophile 2020 diary.
I thought I posted January's stack but I realise I didn't.
Motivating stuff!
Which ones have you read or could recommend?
Another ever so lovely stack in my beautiful new diary...
And I own 10 out of these 15 classics!
On my list of 'Want To Own's from here are; The Count of Monte Cristo, Les Miserables, Moby Dick, A Tale of Two Cities.
Who's read Vanity Fair? Should that go on my list too??
I just love these book stacks in my new diary!!
But I don't own a single one.....do I need to?
Nor have I heard of any of them....
Which would you recommend?
The most amazing planner!!!! It‘s set up just as I like with monthly and weekly pages...plus beautiful book illustrations ❤️
It‘s the new year, which means it‘s time for a new planner! January‘s theme seems to be self-help, and I‘ve read none of these 😂
I got my bookish bullet journal‘s 2020 splash page sorted!
I don‘t aim for particular reading totals anymore, but I‘ll keep the focus on reducing La TBR in 2020. I currently own 239 unread books. I want that number to be 125 or less by this time next year.
I‘ll also keep reading diversely. In 2019, 58% of my reading list was by BIPOC creators and 64% was by non-American creators. I want to maintain more or less those percentages this year.
Guess what came in the mail today!!!!!!!!
A much anticipated delivery. It finally arrived and on New Years Eve too!
Thanks to @hes7 I was reminded that I completed my #20BooksBy2020 📚📚📚📚Thanks for the fun challenge suggestion @megnews
Most of the books were picks!!!
Looking forward to actually begin reading in 2020😊
Inside my new journal!
- month summary;
- week per 2-page diary;
- planned and achieved reading goals!!!
Went Christmas shopping. Bought something for myself...
I'm out Friday but hoping to get lots read over the weekend. Despite being off work, I haven't been able to read as much as been up and down the hospital so hopefully this will get more books finished. Have fun all. I'm counting thrillers as beach reads though. #24B4Monday

It‘s never to early to be organised, right?
I love everything Jane Mount makes - and this looks beautiful... a Readers Journal, out in September. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I can finally use this! I bought it in September and now I can finally use it to organize my week :) #bibliophile
