Man life has been hitting me hard lately & I still haven't been wanting to read. I need spring break tom come so I can finally decompress.
Already not off to a great reading month (I didn't read at all this past week) but things can on get better right? Here is my March TBR
4 book club books
4 #readyourebooks #readyourkindle
3 new releases
🤞 crossed I can make a dent in this 🤞
February wrap up.
4 book club books
2 #readyourebooks #readyourtbr
3 new releases
Not to shabby, but not my best month either. I hit a bit of a slump lately but fingers crossed I get past it soon.
Favorite: Deep End
Least Favorite: Atlas Complex.
🤓Ok here is hoping I can pick up the slack I have been feeling lately. I went a little easy on myself with my choices this month and picked things I knew I would mostly likely fly through 😜

My Feb TBR...
3 new releases
4 book club picks
4 #readyourkindle #readyourebooks #readyourtbr @CBee
Ok, let's do this!
Here's to hoping in can finally finish this tonight. I feel like I have been reading it forever!!
January wrap up
3 book club books
4 new releases
3 #readyourebooks #readyourtbr
2 stephen king back list
1 random pick
Not to shabby when it comes to this years reading goals.
My sister bought us tickets for Christmas/our birthday and this past weekend we finally had our twin date to go. It did not disappoint. My sister didn't read the stage play years ago like I did so she had no idea going in what was going to happen. We had a blast.
Life has been hectic lately but it is nice to finally be able to dive into a book again and just escape for awhile.
I don't have to work today so my only plans today are to see how far I can get on this. Probably one of my most anticipated books this year so fingers crossed it doesn't disappoint.
Working on a new display at work and thought this would be funny. Of course I had to include a couple of my favorites 🤷♀️😜
My ambitious January TBR
Top left are books for book clubs I am in (minus 1 which hasn't picked one yet)
Top right are the picks for my reading challenge (2 ebooks, 2 physical)
Bottom row are new releases I am hoping to dive into.

My main goal for 2025 is to not only continue to chip away at my back log of unread ebooks but to also tackle my back log on my physical TBR. I am continuing the #readyourkindle #readyourebooks challenge but adding in physical books as well this time. Fingers crossed I stick to it.
Not to shabby. Could've been better if life hadn't made me slightly slumpy end of Nov-mid Dec but I can't complain.
Tried to make a dent this year in my backlist of ebooks. Out of the 44 books I picked for my #readyourebooks #readyourkindle challenge (I started in Feb) I finished with 30 read & 14 unread. Not to bad. Thinking I may do a mash up of this with my physical TBR shelf for 2025.
I have been falling behind on my King reads (I get easily distracted by all the shiny new books) but I figured now was the perfect time to dive back in.
I haven't really been in the Christmas spirit lately and these last 2 weeks at work have been really rough. I needed a little retail therapy to help cheer me up.

I may have heavily padded my TBR list with xmas books so it is nice to see one fantasy book snuck it's way in.
It's here & just in time for my bookclub reread. Considered one of Time Magazine's 100 best fantasy books OF ALL TIME & definitely one of my favorites from the last several years. I can't wait to dive into this illustrated edition. Be warned, the book itself is definitely not for the faint of heart.
1 is technically a reread (I cheated & but book club books on my list since I do own them digitally) & 1 I put on there solely in hopes that I could finally remove it from my kindle. Definitely an odd mix this month. 🤔

For November I am introducing my fantasy book club to Hadrian & Royce and I won't lie I am pretty nervous. I love these characters so much and some of the people in my book club are pretty critical. 😬🤞
My reading has reached a new level of lazy but I don't regret it at all 😜😂
I have been on the hunt for this book ever since I read it a few years ago. I fell in love with this quirky little read and knew I needed it in my collection. The glow in the dark aspect is even better in person.
Ok here we go my #readyourkindle #readyourebooks pick for October. It kind of worked out that 2 of these pick are also picks from 2 of my book clubs this month.
@CBee
Sounds like my kind of graphic novel 🤔😜
Alright my fellow library people I have a question for you because it has become a debate at my library.
Do you add 40+ year old books to your collection or do you only add newer materials?
Keep in mind we are a small library with limited space & odds are these books were once in the collection already and have been weeded due to lack of check outs.
Forgot to make a graphic with my list but I did have them saved on my phone so I was still able to participate. Here it this month's picks.

So grateful my sister mentioned these motion sickness wristbands because now I can read on long car rides. 🤪📖🚗
I have been horrible at posting things lately. Time to try to get back in the swing of things again!!
About halfway through and I don't trust anybody!! Something hinky is definitely going on!
August is looking to be an interesting reading month.
The top row= my read your kindle picks
The bottom row=book club picks for the various book clubs I participate in.
#readyourkindle #readyourebooks @CBee
I went a little heavy on the romance for August but I will be heading back to work full time and the first few weeks are always exhausting so I am going to want more fluff less brain power lol.
#readyourkindle #readyourebooks @CBee
2.5ish weeks before I go back to work full time (aka school is back in session) & I am trying my hardest to knock as many books of my TBR as I can!!
Currently about 50% through Amina (my fantasy book club pick for July) & just starting Heartless Hunter.
House work done so my plans today consist of soaking up as much Vitamin D as I can while it is semi decent outside (as opposed to hiding out in the AC).
Our true crime book club meets Sunday & I am barely halfway through the book. I think the audiobook just isn't working for me on this one. Time to switch it up. I couldn't get a physical copy in time but thankfully Everand has the ebook available. Don't mind me while I read at work.
Storm hit and the power went out. Guess I am reading by booklight & candlelight tonight. It has been out for a few hrs at this point. The lack of AC and/or air movement is what's really going to do me in though.
My personal copy wont arrive at my house until after release day but the library had it ready for me to cover today. Do you know how much will power it took for me not to just forget about work & instead hide in the basement all day reading this?
Since all of my is out of town/state for the 4th and the people I usually spend the day with made different plans this year guess now is as good of time as any pick up the last book in this trilogy. Let's see how far I can get.
Books by 3 of my favorite authors (Tessa Bailey, Alexandra Bracken, & Christina Lauren) and a book I have been meaning to read for years...July looks like it could end up being a great reading montn.
