Books I Want to Read Before 2022

Hello book friends! Typing 2022 felt so weird… I still sometimes catch myself wanting to type 2020, which is ??? Time goes by too fast and I’m doing a terrible job keeping up. Anyway, I always make a little post about which books I still want to read before the new year starts, so here it is! I’ve already read so many more books this year than I normally do. I’m currently around 70 books read, whereas normally I read about 50 per year. You’d think that my physical TBR has thus gone down a bit, but noooo. It has…

Hello reader friends! Every year at the beginning of fall I spend like five hours figuring out a good way to edit my Bookstagram pictures.

My Fall 2021 Bucket List

Fall has of course been around for a while now, but it’s never too late to compile a Fall bucket list. I always tell myself to go have an active Fall, but it never really works out. This year I really want to do everything on the list though! Last year I made a bucket list with the loosened restrictions in mind, and that obviously did not go as planned. So this year’s bucket list will involve some items that I wanted to do last year, but couldn’t!. Plus I’ve actually done some research about what I can do around…

September 2021 Wrap Up and October TBR

Happy second day of October! I’m doing two posts in one today – my September 2021 wrap up and my tentative TBR for October. Tentative, because I never stick to my own plans. I hope everyone had a nice September! I am actually really excited for October, and the months after. First my birthday is at the end of the month, and then we can start getting ready for Christmas! The past month I didn’t read a whole lot of books. I read five in total, one of which an ARC. BUT, three out of five books were very chunky…
