Getting back into my #audiocrochet habit lately. I've missed combining two of my favourite things, reading and crocheting 📚 🧺 ❤️

KadaGul Work has been hectic lately, and balancing work and life feels like a distant dream. 3mo

ShyBookOwl @KadaGul I'm sorry. It is very hard to balance responsibilities and fun/hobbies. Hang in there! 3mo

Sace I‘ve been trying to do the same. Even if it‘s just a short chapter a day. By the time it cools off here my socks (knit) and cardigan (crochet) will be done. 3mo

ShyBookOwl @Sace That's perfect timing! 3mo

While I've collected most of my books due to loving history and information, I must admit, there's several I've gotten due to nostalgia.

1. My reading goal is 48 books. The last few years I've set it at that and it allows for wiggle room.

2. I don't have a specific book, but I've enjoyed reading the books I already own so I want to continue that

This was a great one to read at the end of the year to learn about voices I may not be familiar with and set me up for a really diverse reading year in 2025! #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks #diversebooks

I love this idea. My 5 are somewhat obvious ones, but I can't help it. I love them. Make your list & share!

Quote from a one-nan show called "Bibliomania" by Roger Rosenblatt. The quote was in a coffee table book on libraries.
