November Wrap Up

How was my November?

This month I read a lot more non review copies than normal. My ratings are higher than average because these are all books that I was really excited about. I had gotten a ton of great titles for my birthday and really enjoyed reading them this month.

My blog didn’t get as many views as it did last month as in October I participated in Blogoween, but I did do pretty well. I didn’t make any goals this month, and that’s okay.

I enjoyed a really great month book wise, started cleaning up my TBR and shared my new hobby with you guys. I also started organizing my TBR with Kaleena’s 2019 bookish spreadsheet, you should really check it out because it is a LIFESAVER.

What books did I read?

I read a total of 9 books, 1 author request, 2 ARCs and 7 buddy reads. A total of 3780 pages read!

The Wicked King by Holly Black ★★★★★

Muse of Nightmares by Laini Taylor ★★★★★

The Black Witch by Laurie Forest ★★★★★

The Iron Flower by Laurie Forest ★★★★

The Myth Seeker by Cory Barclay★★★★

Not Even Bones by Rebecca Schaeffer ★★★★

Rhapsodic by Laura Thalassa ★★★★

The Long Game by Jennifer Lynn Barnes ★★★★

The Similars by Rebecca Hanover ★★★★

What is my new hobby that I shared?

I shared with you guys that I have been learning hand lettering and calligraphy. I absolutely LOVE doing it. I have made a few bookmarks and hope to open an Etsy shop eventually. I made a how to post of some basics!

What are some posts that you should check out?

• I highly recommend that you check out Kaleena@ Reader Voracious’ 2019 bookish spreadsheet. It is a lifesaver for organizing your TBR and ARC’s, plus it has all sorts of bookish stats.

• Last, but certainly not least, check out Fictionally Sam and Clo @ Book Dragon’s Bookending Winter event! WHICH OF COURSE I AM PARTICIPATING IN!

Just saying… these are some of my FAVORITE book bloggers, so you should totally check them out regardless of these awesome posts.
