    August 2025 Reading Wrap-Up

    It’s time to wrap up everything I read in August! But what about what I’ve read the rest of the year so far? Am I going to write wrap-ups about those books? Absolutely not. If you want to know how I feel about anything I read prior to August, you’ll have to check out my

  • October 2021 Reading Wrap-Up

    You all know me by now. I absolutely love spooky season. So, in the spirit of the holiday, I spent the month of October reading exclusively spooky books. And I had a marvelous time. In total, I read seven books: four adult novels, one adult novella, one YA novel, and one children’s short story collection.

  • September 2021 Reading Wrap-Up

    September was interesting, to say the least. I started my new job as an instructional assistant in an elementary/middle school and so far am actually really enjoying it. It has its downsides (as with any job), but I really like helping the kids. Given that September was so busy for me, I’m actually impressed at

  • August 2021 Reading Wrap-Up

    August was all over the place for me. I just got a new job that I’m super excited about, though it’s been a long road to get here. My reading has reflected my changing moods over the course of the month.  In total, I read four novels and three manga. The lowest rating I gave

  • July 2021 Reading Wrap-Up

    Hello, hello hello! I’m baaaaaack!!!  This past month has been pretty busy. My aunt came to visit for a week, so I hung out with her. Then I was cat-sitting while my parents were out of town. And this past week, I was working on a massive project: listing all my unhauled books on Depop

  • June 2021 Reading Wrap-Up

    Normally, I’d open this particular wrap-up with a jovial tone and Pride jokes but… June was intense for me this year. Not necessarily in a negative way, but it was a lot and I have eight books to talk about. So no preamble this time. In June, I read six books and DNF’d two. Of

  • April & May 2021 Reading Wrap-Up

    So, I’ll be honest. I don’t know what my plans are for this blog right now. I’m not abandoning it, but I just haven’t felt very motivated to write for it this year. I haven’t had the bandwidth for it since January. Hell, I’ve been working on this post for two months! That said, I

  • March 2021 Reading Wrap-Up

    Though I took the month off from blogging, I didn’t stop reading. In fact, I read more this month than I have most months as of late. And yes, most of it was Fullmetal Alchemist-related.In March, I read twelve manga volumes and six novels. I also made it partway through two other novels that will

  • February 2021 Reading Wrap-Up

    In February, I participated in #FFFeb, a readathon where participants read books featuring a sapphic romance. I also failed said readathon. Oops. Looks, I meant to read at least 4 or 5 F/F romances throughout the month. Alas, I only read like one and three quarters. Why? Well, it’s all Hiromu Arakawa’s fault! I’m going

  • January 2021 Reading Wrap-Up

    Well, one month of 2021 down, 11 more to go. We all said 2021 wouldn’t be just another 2020 and so far, so bad. But hey, there’s still time to turn it all around! And on the plus side, I started the year off with a great reading month. I read five books total: two
