Hubby had to work today. My kitty isn‘t letting me read yesterday- so… I‘m gonna try out this #BookToScreen pick (I loved the book!)

He is instant that he should be cuddled instead of letting me read. ♥️🦞♥️

Lobster 🦞🐈‍⬛ would not let me read yesterday. When I tried to push him off of me so I can turn pages— he held on to the book for dear life!

I enjoyed this #Audio book. The “then” and “now” way of telling a story . Overall a soft pick. #OffTheShelf2025
@Librariana

I picked this from a #Smut recommendation list. I‘m “enjoying it” (somewhat) but.. super annoyed when they keep referencing names of songs 🎶

Type: “Literally my character” into your Pinterest search bar & the first 6 images are who you are…
(Had to do some cropping so yall can see it all).

Thanks (I think) @TheBookHippie for this trend!

First day off after some a really rough week of work (and training a new employee). I have a ton of laundry to catch up! Good thing I am pretty engrossed in this #Audio.

I listened to this one. (I preordered it a while back.) I am obsessed with the male voices! Oooo! 🌶️🌶️🌶️

If only.

I love this author! This one hit hard too. I can't even imagine how my life would be if “The Marriage Act“ was real! All the AI stuff is scary! Zoey and Lobster were lying next to me when I was finishing this one :)

I have been reading/checking in with my buddy Frankie every Friday with this book. I am enjoying it so far - lots of “to-do“ and “to think-about“ items for me to focus on. Today, I reread a couple of weeks' worth and took some notes :) 📑📊🗓️

I finished 2 more courses in my degree towards a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner. This semester was intense. I felt sick some days (physically) and couldn't take care of myself because school NEVER stops! I am taking a semester off before I start my preceptorship (I can't emotionally- self-care - physically - think about working for free right now).

I am excited to use this time to read, regroup, and organize my home/life.

This was super cute. Again, too young for me, but.. I enjoyed how sweet it is. I might be into romance more than I initially thought :) - Tulips from the hubby (My fav flower)

Today is my first day off after having a busy busy work week. I have to do me - put clothes away, do more laundry and do some general house chores. Found my next #AudioChore book :) My #BookSpin book pick is #AudibleBacklog so... it's perfect!

OMG! This was such a fascinating read! #FiveStarRead - Thank you again @CatieWithaC

Finished this month's #ThematicCozies @JulieClair Most cozies have some romantic element, and when I googled this (romance + cozy mystery) it came up, but ... it wasn't super romantic-y. Compared to others I have loved! Oh well. The book itself was a bit obnoxious, but it might have been geared to a younger audience into influencers - a #NotForMe pick.

Tackled a ton of #AudioBooks this past month. I find them so helpful in having them on while I try (desperately) to gain control of my life. #AudioCommute #AudioCrochet #AudioChores

I like this book's idea way more than its execution. It didn't grasp me as much as I had hoped, but it did provide a distraction during my #AudioCrochet and #AudioChores, which is always helpful.

Zoey looking especially chubby! #PugLife

#ISpy - A Novel @TheAromaOfBooks

@CatieWithaC I don't know if you gave me this book (fi you did and I never properly thanked you - I am sorry), or if you suggested it, but ... I am being sucked in! I can't read all day - even though I want to! It's so captivating!

#AudioCrochet —- but this book is so slow moving!!!!!

Cute #NextInSeries and already downloaded the third book❤️🖤❤️ was able to listen while documenting yesterday.

I took a break from cleaning to finish this one (I was almost done anyway). Anyway, this is a re-read for me. It was interesting to see the poems I flagged back then vs how they don't affect me in the same way today. Some of me wish I had annotated a little or journaled why they were significant then.

Got a lot of housework to do today. Struggled with finishing homework this weekend and just let “everything” go. Listening to this one while I conquer the pile of clothes to fold and our away. #AudioChores

Starting my #DoubleSpin Poetry book while soaking in the tub. My lovely hubby is dying my hair, got me a nice mixed drink and some chocolates and told me to relax in rhe tub :)

It was a cute quick read :) I enjoyed it :) Initially, I was curious about the kitty's role, but it all tied in! I enjoyed it :)

My #ThematicCozies pick for January (Animal). I needed a new #AudioCommute Book since I have to go back to work this weekend and just googled animal themed cozy. @julieclair

I spent the day reading yesterday and finished this. There were some parts I struggled with (abuse), but overall, I found it really engaging. I don't know who gifted me this book (It didn't have a name) but #ThankYou for it!

Joshua and I saw two foxes frolicking in front of us. Snapped a really grainy pic at Midnight. With what I've researched, this is a great fortune for the new year. Here‘s to 2025!

Thank you, @JulieClair, for hosting the #SeasonalCozies group this year. I read some great cozies (and started a series, so I kinda got away from the monthly pick), but... it was great!

I am excited for #ThematicCozies coming up!

Thank you @CBee, for hosting the #ReadYourKindle challenge. I didn't really knock out a bunch of Kindle books (Kindle reading is my least fav way to read), but I might remedy this next year. Please keep my tagged :)

With school and a generally hectic life this month, I indulged in more Audio. Helps me when I am commuting or doing some light cleaning! I love getting lost in a good narration.

Only one book from my shelf was read this month. I enjoyed it, though. I think next year (or this year, actually), I might do a #BookBracket for #NonFiction, too, so that I can properly rank them. #DecemberReCap

My Audible Backlog of books got culled a little this month. Also I ended up DNF'ing the Kindle one :)
