Ah, the end of another month of reading. I hope everyone had a good August!
Non-Reading Stuff
Had a bit of an odd month for my mental health with my meds being messed with, but it seems to have been sorted and I’m starting to do better again. And my therapy has been going well so that’s the main thing.
We also got the washer/dryer hooked up finally so I can do laundry without driving 40 minutes! Hurray!! I kind of love doing laundry, it’s so relaxing.
Reading Stuff
I finished 5 books in August!
Check out my list of books and my fave/least fave things about them.
There’s a part of me that feels I didn’t read as much as I’d like this month, but I’m ignoring that part because I’m still on track for my Goodreads goal and I did more than I expected to with the reaction to those meds being what it was.
Blogging Stuff
This is an area I’m not so pleased with. I post plenty of quotes, which are my favorite things to take from books, but I haven’t done much else and I’m not happy with that. At least I’ve been doing something with my Dedication Spotlight tag!
I’m thinking of starting a new sort of post. One thing I do when I read is write down any new, great words I find in the book. I collect them in notebooks with the definition and the sentence from the book where I found it for context. I’ve recently considered putting that on the blog too. After all, words are what make books so lovely, and who doesn’t love learning new ones.
Is there anything y’all would like to see more of on the blog? Let me know!
