Reading slow and posting even slower. 🤦🏾♀️

November was a good reading month for me with 15 books read & 2 started-but sadly, not much progress with my Women Who Run with the Wolves reread.🩶🐺
I finished books for #SundayBuddyRead #ChildrensClassicRead2025 #NancyDrewBR
#BobWhiteBuddies #EBBR #RiseUpReads #MonthlyNonFiction #ThematicCozies #FictionalTraveler #Roll100 (3) #AuthorAMonth &SeriesLove2025
A good mix of books, favorites were Living With Picasso, The Serviceberry & Aftertaste

I got a good amount of reading done in November, helped in no small part by some graphic books and some shorter novels. On to December!

Slowing down and doing other things is working well for me. I only finished 6, which is about half of what I averaged earlier in the year, but I loved almost everything I finished. They‘re all so different that I can‘t pick a favorite. I‘ll definitely take quality over quantity.

I can finally post my #BookspinBingo board!! As you can see I really want to get these last #25in25 books read.

November‘s #bookspin is a title on my bookshelf that starts with A-M and #doublespin is a 2025 NetGalley backlist title. Hopefully this is flexible enough for success. 🤞🏻Thanks for making this such a flexible challenge, Sarah!

*sigh* November #Bookspin list ready. I really want to knock out the rest of the books on my #25in25 list. I have 15 left. We‘ll see how it goes.

Finally #BookspinBingo board for November. Not too shabby. Still can‘t get these squares square. 🤣
@TheAromaofBooks

I feel good about my November reading. I guess hiding after the election helped my numbers as I finished 20 books including my 3 November #Roll100 + 2 more from previous months. I also finished books for #SeasonalCozies #BobWhiteBuddies ChildrensClassicRead2024 #Naturalitsy #FoodAndLit & I finished my #OUABC 40 Book challenge, met my 150 book goal on Goodreads & I‘m 1 book away from my #BOTM challenge. Favorites were: We Solve Murders, Shark ⬇️

November reading 📚
The two books not pictured - For Such a Time As This (3.5 ⭐️) & One Day I Shall Astonish the World (3 ⭐️)

14 books read in November. My reluctant reader actually asked to read us the Turning Red graphic novel twice! #BookSpinBingo #ReadAway2024

Yes, it‘s 9 days into November & I‘m just posting my #TBR. In progress with some of these already & while I won‘t get to all the books here (& I am skipping a few read-alongs/challenges I normally do or wanted to do, I am going with this plus any holds & things coming in that I decide to read instead). We‘ll see where the month takes me. 📚📚📚🤷🏻♀️📚📚📚

I am keeping my November tbr pretty open because I am sure that my library Christmas holds will start to come in!

Here‘s my #ReadYourEbooks picks for the month! I‘m still finishing the one and only I read (technically am reading) from October‘s picks, so we‘ll see how I do this month.

Happy November! I am looking forward to reading some nonfiction this month! Everyone is welcome to join this Readathon and to share facts you learned with the hashtag #TodayILearned. We are counting podcasts, magazines and documentaries for this challenge. Make your own goals.

#BookspinBingo board is ready to go. Both my #Bookspin and #DoubleBookspin picks are library books. Shouldn‘t be too hard to fulfill.
I‘m not loving the spacing on this board and I can‘t seem to get it to change so I might have another board soon.

November #BookSpin List. I am going to attempt to read more nonfiction this month for #NonFictionNovember

…and now my official TBR. There‘s only 11, which is doable. I‘m pretty sure I‘ll hit 11 books read, so the only question is will it be this 11 or something else. 🤔
My money is on something else. 🤣🤣 #moodreader

It looks like I‘ll only be getting one read from the October picks, but I‘m happy with that. Here‘s my November list for #ReadYourEbooks. My connectivity will be scanty over the next week, so hopefully I‘ll get to see the numbers and post mine at some point.

Happy November 1! I‘m looking forward to reading some nonfiction this month! Everyone is welcome to join this Readathon and to share facts you learn with the hashtag #TodayILearned We‘re counting podcasts, magazines and documentaries for this challenge. Make your own goals!
My goals are to walk during the day every day while listening to some form of nonfiction, clear out my stack of magazines a little bit, and read or listen to 5 NF books.

I feel like October went by in the blink of an eye!! Here is to another month and another photo challenge!!
#daysdevotedto @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I almost forgot to share my November #bookspinbingo TBR! Lots of leftovers but hopefully I can cross a lot off my list!

Holds back obligatory “where is the time going?” thought. I‘m excited to tackle #NetgalleyNovember let hope my mood reading heart can stick to it.

Starting Friday November 1 !! Each prompt for November has a corresponding dedicated day. Some of my favorites are Odd Socks Day, Kindness Day, and Good Grief Day🤩
Everyone is invited to play❣️ Find a book, quote, poem, play, idea or image for each prompt. Many thanks to all who joined in for October🙏🏻

Oh my word, October is almost over!! November is right around the corner, so if you would like to #BookSpin next month, it's time to be thinking about your lists!!
And for those of you who REALLY like to plan ahead, I have every intention of continuing this challenge (+ #BookSpinBingo of course!) into 2025... even if it's absolutely bonkers that next year is going to TWENTY-FIVE YEARS into the 21st century!

The more I think about it the more I want to do #NetgalleyNovember
My ratio is pathetic. I grabbed last years templates from Neverending_Netgalley on Instagram.
Anyone want to join me in raising your ratio?

I finished 15 books in November, the majority of which were good to great. Unsurprisingly, according to The StoryGraph, my most read genres were mystery and romance and the primary moods were dark, mysterious, and emotional. Tell me you fell into a deep depression without telling me you fell into a deep depression. 🤔 I‘d say here‘s to a lighter December, but I‘ve looked at my planned TBR. Maybe I should tweak it. 🤣🤣

Pretty happy with my November reading as I finished 17 books! 🎉📚🎉 They weren‘t necessarily the books in my November TBR as I made a mid-month decision to try to complete the #BOTM challenge & the #OnceUponABookClub 40 book challenge this year & switched out books. I am on track to finish both in December.
I finished my #SundayBuddyRead #JaneAdjacent & #ChildrensClassicsRead2023 #NancyDrewBR books & one for my virtual foodie book club too.⬇️

It‘s taken a few days but here is my November TBR. I won‘t get to all of these but hopefully a lot of them. I‘ve already started a couple. As always, incoming library holds & my many moods may take me in other directions. 📚🤷🏻♀️📚

#BookspinBingo board ready to go. And right on time as I just finished my book and need to figure out what to read next. To the spinner!

Here are the November prompts for #PoetryMatters Thanks to all those that played in November. It was a great poetry month.
To play post a poem, song, quote etc that you feel matches the prompt. Don't forget to tag me.
Looking forward to reading the poems.
