October 2024 Wrap Up
I feel like my blog is just wrap-ups lately, butā¦ it is what it is, I guess. I just havenāt been reading as much or as into the bookish things lately, mostly due to my getting out of the house and working on my photography. Itās not a bad thing, but I donāt want to end up abandoning this blog either. I love the bookish community and want to still be a part of it, I just probably wonāt be asā¦

Alternative Careers
Daily writing promptWhat alternative career paths have you considered or are interested in?View all responses Iāve mentioned, probably too many times, that Iām a librarian. Thatās pretty fitting for someone who has a book blog, right? I started off volunteering at the library, eventually was hired as a circulation assistant, got my MLIS, and now Iām a Library Director.

September 2024 Wrap Up
Iām so late posting this, but here we are. First of all, I didnāt even touch a book until after halfway through the month ā thatās how bad this slump is. I did manage to read a couple of books close to the end of the month, though, and they were all good ones. I did share my haul from my vacation, so those are some books Iām looking forward to reading, and maybe Iāll get back on track with myā¦

Vermont 2024 Book Haul
Last week I took a much needed vacation, which was just a short getaway to Stowe, Vermont for a few nights. Nothing fancy. Just getting out of state and as far from work as I could within reason. The first full day we were there, we went to Burlington which is home to at least three bookstore (that I know of), two of which are on the infamous Church Street Marketplace. And, of course, on the wayā¦

August 2024 Wrap Up
I started off so strong in the first two weeks of August, and then it just all came crashing down. I think some work stress has just gotten to me real bad, which I really donāt understand because itās not that bad. But nearly every day I just feel like this job is a prison sentence. Maybe itās depression tooā¦ since Iām not really interested in reading or much else that I enjoy lately. Whateverā¦

July 2024 Wrap Up
July was a really good month for reading! I read seven books (the most in a month Iāve read this year) and I enjoyed every book! I even read books for two book clubs!

It was really interesting reading The Giver because Iād read it a millionā¦

Ten Debut Novels I Loved
This weekās prompt is fun, which is āDebut Novels I Enjoyedā though Iām taking it a step further and using the āLā word, haha. My list isnāt in any particular order of which ones I liked the best, because that would just make this prompt harder. So this is just a plain list of ten debut novels I really loved and made me want to read more of the authorsā work, or wait (impatiently) for theirā¦

Ten Things I Loved About This Lullaby
Itās been a while since Iāve done a Top Ten Tuesday prompt, and this one was an immediate āyes, I want to do this one!ā from me. However, I did have a hard time finding a book that wasnāt a popular one or from a well-loved series. So I went with a book that occasionally reenters my mind at random timesā¦ This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen. Whatās funny about this one is that I didnāt love it right awayā¦

Throwback Three: June 2024
Soā¦ I am now realizing that I missed doing this for May, which is fine. I was a little busy taking photos and recovering from a long political battle at work (which is a library, so why are politics even involved? Good question.) I havenāt really been writing posts on a regular basis here, which is for a number of reasons. One of them being that Iām a little burnt-out with book blogging. I mean,ā¦
