Barely made my quarterly goal of 50 books.

( a lot of katherine addison )

I worked only night shifts this month, had a lot of down time, and was very productive, bookwise. Not in any other way.

Currently Reading:

Running Close to the Wind by Alexandra Rowland

I...I'm working on it, I promise.

( the best reading month of my life )

We're back on track! I don't think I'm gonna hit the numbers I hit last year, but I think we can make it to 150. Right now the goal is just to get through all the things i planned to get through this year...On nights through December, which has historically been very good for my reading, so we shall see.

( we're back )

My best month yet, with an insane 24 books read!
( on target to beat last year's numbers )

I read a shocking amount this month, considering how miserable I was for most of it. Let's go!

( finally getting into my 2024 releases )

Some good stuff in here. I've been trying to read more off my backlist, which I think is going well, but it means a lot of new releases are going neglected. Alas.

( read more than i thought i would tbh )

Not as many books as January, but still I did pretty good. I'm doing a challenge this year where I try to read 26 books off my backlist, one author for each letter of the alphabet, and so far I'm making good headway and getting through some of these e-books that have sat unread for way too long.( click the cut! )

An insanely productive reading month for me, despite me being on a very busy trauma rotation. We're sending out 2023 with a bang! Down below!

( final update of 2023 and it's beefy )

I read almost as many books in October as I did in the first three months of the year combined :) Shout out to night shifts where I had hours of down time.

I also DNF'd a lot of books this month, but I think I'm going to do a DNF round-up at the end of the year because I think there's some fun stuff to dig into re: my reading habits, and then start adding DNFs to the monthly posts next year. I rarely DNF, for the record. I read two Ernest Cline books and 5/6 50sog books. I have the fucking stamina and will hateread anything if you ask nicely and let me rant in your DMs a bit.

Also, I spoil a lot of books in this one! So if you see a title you want to read unspoiled, keep scrolling.

( a long, long list. get a snack perhaps )

My beefiest month yet! I started a massive P&P variation reread in order to put together a rec list. Look for that later this month.

( my beefiest month yet )
