A few days late this month as I have just not had a ton of motivation. I can blame it slightly on the heat wave we have been living through, slightly on it being a week filled with anxiety with ants coming in the house due to the heat, and strangeness around restrictions lifting and … Continue reading the best books i read this month – june 2021
Every month I start these posts with not believing that it is the end of another month and this post is no exception. Summer has really snuck up on me, but I am ready to embrace it the best that I can. We have gotten some bikes that had been living at my parents and … Continue reading the best books i read this month – may 2021
Ah April, this month seemed to fly by. Between the false summer we had here in BC (28 degrees and wearing shorts, what?), work starting to truly get busy, and Nigel starting a new job, the end of this month really caught me off guard. Looking back at the books that I read this month … Continue reading the best books i read this month – april 2021
I work in a library and when you work in a library there are certain authors that you see again and again. People are always checking out their books, full shelves (and more) are dedicated to their works and some authors *cough* James Patterson *cough* seem to have a new book coming in every week. … Continue reading writers i’ve never read challenge
Wow. This is my first post in almost a month, almost since my last reading update and I am not sure where the time went.

I cannot believe that it is March again. This is partly because it still feels like it is still March of 2020 and partly because this month has been so busy, filled with the library that I work at having its (small) grand opening, some winter snow, some warm days out in the garden, all … Continue reading the best books i read this month – february 2021
I love libraries. This probably will come at shock to no one that knows me personally, I mean I spent years of my life going to school to work in a library one day, my first stop in a new city is always a library to get a library card, and I am always encouraging … Continue reading libraries
I used to think that I didn’t enjoy Romance books. In fact, I actively avoided them. Then in grad school I had to do an assignment where I read three books of a genre that I didn’t typically enjoy and I chose Romance. Out of those three books I hated one, was okay with the … Continue reading books about love
Welcome to my first best books post of the year! I feel like it has been such a long time since I wrote one of these and this is also my first monthly book post since switching over to using The StoryGraph instead of goodreads. If you want to look back on the reading goals … Continue reading the best books i read this month – january 2021
I love getting excited for books that are future releases. When I have a favourite author and then find out that they have a new book releasing soon I get so excited. I then immediately start checking the libraries that I am a part of to try and get on the holds list as soon … Continue reading what i am excited to read in 2021
