Rough week; didn‘t finish anything this week, as I was in a funk this week. Still plodding through the books I am currently reading and am hoping that I can start some of the upcoming reads this coming week.
Overall a decent month of reading for January. The final week I kinda hit a slight reading slump.
Thanks to @CSeydel for use of this reading bracket.
My favourite read for January was The Most Fun We Ever Had by Claire Lombardo. #readingbracket2025
Finally got my date for my second mastectomy booked. When I was filling out my paperwork at the start of my cancer treatments in September 2021, I filled out some paperwork in regard to doing genetic testing. I did the testing after finishing my chemo treatments for my breast cancer and subsequently found out that I did have a genetic mutation that made me more susceptible to developing breast cancer.
I hate these sort of breaks in chapters; it should be a proper chapter break.
Something I can really sink my teeth into; has a good plot and great characters and is engaging. #sundayfunday
1. N/A; looking for work at the moment
2. I don‘t think Miles particularly likes being a teacher
I have read only 16 of the books #tlt
pick4.5⭐️ Had heard about this book through Sarah‘s Bookshelves and thought I would give this book a try. I ended up really liking the book; felt the book started out a little slow, but it seemed to pick up steam as I got further into the book. If you like books that have family drama, you may like this one. #2025 #contemporary #family #literary #fiction

Finished two books this week (will post my review of My Name is Lucy Barton in the next couple of days).
Almost done with The Maid; slowly getting my way through Book, Most Fun and Billy Boyle. Will be starting my upcoming reads in the next day or two.
pick4⭐️ A heartwarming Christmas story. I particularly enjoyed the cameos of the late Queen and her husband (I had images of Claire Foy and Matt Smith in my head, whenever the Queen and the Prince were in scenes). #2025 #fiction #christmas #holiday #romance
pick4.5⭐️ My heart broke at the end of this book, but despite that, I really enjoyed it. Ms. Trump pulls no punches about her life within the Trump family and really digs into what her father‘s family was and is like. I hope at some point she can find people who truly love and appreciate her. #2025 #nonfiction #memior #autobiography #trumpfamily
My final pick for #12booksof2024. I was surprised that I enjoyed this book. #december
Was surprised that I liked this book. Yet another book that I liked that was out of my wheelhouse. #12booksof2024 #november
Managed to read the book in less than a week, just after finishing Half-Blood Prince and because of that, my really slowed down for the rest of the month. #12booksof2024 #october
My #august selection for #12booksof2024. I feel like this is the Canadian equivalent to All the Light We Cannot See, but without the hype of All the Light simply because it‘s a Canadian book. This was my second reading of the book and I just love this book.
My #july pick for #12booksof2024. Was really surprised that this #ww2 novel was as enjoyable as it was, as I have not enjoyed #ww2 books as much in the last few years, as I have felt that there are way too many books on this topic (suppose that‘s what happens when you open up the records).
And my top read for 2024 is (drumroll please).... All the Light We Cannot See. I thought that Tell or The Underground Library might edge out but I think just with how Doerr wrote the book and how it seemed to be even better this past June that made it my top read for 2024. Let's see what 2025 brings. #readingbracket2024
Even though the last few weeks weren‘t great, reading wise, 2024 was a pretty good reading year. I started to embrace #romancefiction a little bit more and read less #historicalfiction. I also have realized that I need to read more of the books that I do have before accumulating more books and to get rid some more of those that I do have. And maybe try to limit the number of library books I have out at one time…
Love this book; it, along with Cutting for Stone, are probably my favourite books from the past twenty years. This is my favourite book from #June. Yes I have watched the Netflix miniseries. #12booksof2024
My #May selection for #12booksof2024
My #April selection for #12booksof2024. Love this book.
My selection for March for #12booksof2024 is Hamnet & Judith (aka Hamnet). I read this for one of my book clubs.
Really liked this book and one that I have often thought about over the course of the past 10 months since I finished it. #12booksof2024
Is there a way to connect with fellow #canadianlittens? I know that there was a group that was doing exchanges but I was wondering if there is a Facebook or discord group. And if there isn‘t a group, are there fellow #canadianlittens who would like to connect with each other?
My #jolabokaflodswap from @ShelleyBooksie. Thanks to @MaleficentBookDragon for organizing this wonderful event. #jolabokaflod
I‘ve been really busy the last few couple of weeks; am hoping that it slows down a bit so I can get some reading and watching in. #wintergames #xmaschacha
A fascinating podcast on Roman Saturnalia #wintergames #xmaschacha +5pts
pick4 ⭐️ Can‘t recall why I gave it the rating that I did. #2024 #historicalfiction #fiction #deweyreadathon
so-so3⭐️ Thought it was ok; felt like a slog for most of the book, as I felt that the three storylines could have been better integrated than they were. #2024 #bookclub #climatefiction #fiction #dystopian
