Welcome to Litsy!

February wrap-up no. 2

February wrap-up no. 1

Slow month for me, but I've also been reading Iron Flame. I only record pages when I finish a book, not daily.

Overall, I had a pretty good month with 14 books read. 🥰

Here‘s my February Wrap-up.

I think I finished 7 books this month? Including my first DNF of the year. Hoping to keep this momentum going!!

February 2024, how I could forget that month? 😔
I read only 4 books, difficult to concentrate in my reading but at the same time, they helped me to manage my situations. The majority were read at the begy of the month. No bingos of course ☺️

My listening recap for February.

I completed 16 books, all of which were from the library...I seriously love the library🥰😍

I had 2 DNFs for the month, A Place for Vanishing by Ann Fraistat...and The Antiquity Affair by Lee Kelly & Jennifer Thorne.

MY total time spent listening for the month was 163 Hours 16 Mins...after speeding the audio up I averaged it out to about 80 hours total. My top genre was Thriller with Mystery a close second.

February reads. I wish every book could make me speedread like I did with Pet, I love Niall Williams‘ writing (History of the Rain), and Edith Wharton‘s The Mother‘s Recompense was incredibly engaging.

February in 📚.
Loved Birnam Wood and Lexicon hugely.

No bingo's this month, but a good reading month overall. Bride was definitely the best of the month.

I didn‘t get to all the books I wanted to, but most of the ones I did read were great!

Just Another Missing Person
The Unquiet Bones

I read 12 books during February 2024 and got 3 bingos.

February Wrap Up:

With a total of 6 books read I did a whole better than I thought I would, so yay me! (It would've been 7 if the 2nd part of RHOM reunion wasn't on last night 😂)

February #bookspinbingo — 6 bingos!
I had a great reading month and hope to get to the 4 I missed next month.

A difficult month for many reasons, but did manage to somehow finish 20 books. A much higher proportion than normal of audiobooks, 11 of the 20.

My favourite book was The Women by Kristin Hannah. What was your favourite read in February?

Today, I‘m sharing the books I read in February and the movies I watched. In February, I decided to start watching movies on Friday nights again because I like watching movies but I don‘t watch them very often. I didn‘t like the first book I read this month. I bailed on 2 books because they weren‘t for me but I liked the other books I read and I liked the movies I watched. I feel like I chose some good movies to watch.

February was a very up and down month, especially the second half of it.

Read 19 books but went from 399 pages a day in January to 250 in February, that‘s a big difference!

Six books finished this month. Two more places for #ReadingTheAmericas2023 🌎

On the opposite note...not pictured is Of Feathers and Thorns and that book was so awful I guess I forgot to add it to the template.
