Mid-Year Bookish Goals Update 2021

We're already halfway done with 2021, so I thought it fitting to take a look at how my reading has been going this year. Let's get to some general reading stats and then we'll get to updating how I'm doing with each of the five goals I had for 2021. 78 (Goodreads goal 100) books …

Book Review: People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry

It seems like forever since I've written a full book review for this blog. I really should get back to writing them, as they take less of my time then a lot of the longer posts I've been doing recently. So I picked up this book, which is a recent release, because I was really …

Best Book Fathers for Father’s Day

(Turns out next week is Father's Day, so ignore this post for like a week and you'll be fine, lol.) Tomorrow is Father's Day and in celebration of all the amazing fathers out there, I thought it would nice to celebrate fictional fathers on my little blog. Like in real life, fictional fathers can support …

May 2021 Reading Wrap-up

Another month is gone and I'm amazed that 2021 is already almost halfway over. Time is seriously flying by so quickly! This month I read 11 books, which wasn't great considering I'm on summer break with not that much to do. However, already in June I've read quite a few books, so I'm assuming I'll …

Books Releasing Soon by Authors I’ve Enjoyed

So, I've said previously that I tend not to look forward to new releases. In a single year, I usually have only a handful of new books I'm excited to read. However, I do like to try to keep up with authors I've enjoyed before to see if I like their new books as well. …

Reading Wrap-Up March, 2021

I can't believe we're already four months into 2021...and it feels just as crazy as 2020. Anyways, in March I had a very good reading month, reading a total of 17 books of various genres. Looking at the book I read this month, they were honestly all over the place. I have older books, new …

The Valentine’s Day Sweetheart Book Tag

I know Valentine's Day is already over, but I did this tag Saturday on my Youtube channel, so it will have to work. Mostly I did this book tag because I couldn't finish Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo. But next week, I promise! So today we are doing this fun book tag. It was …

My Favorite Chinese Books! Also, Happy Chinese New Year!

春节快乐 (chunjie kuai le)! Happy Chinese New Year! Yesterday was the Chinese New Year. 2021 is the Year of the Ox, and so today I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite Chinese books, both classic and modern. I've probably done a post similar to this a few years ago, but …

First Book Haul of 2021

Technically, most of these books were purchased at the end of 2020. If you read my Bookish Resolutions for 2021, you may remember I talked about being more conscious and selective about the books I bought. For every book I buy, I have to get rid of one of my books. In this way, I'll …

Books I’m Looking Forward to in 2021

I've mentioned before on my blog that I usually don't look forward to many new book releases, because I'm the type of reader who prefers reading books which stand the test of time. An overhyped book from 2021 may or may not be good, but a 2014 book which everyone still loves is probably at …
