Currently Nerding, February 2022
Nerding Out Over Candy I’ve never really been someone that has a sweet tooth. I don’t really crave candy or sweets on a regular basis. I mean, I have a bunch of candy bars just sitting in the fridge waiting to be eaten. It’s just not something we had in the house often as a kid, and it’s a habit I have continued as an adult. Until recently. Lately, Twix have just been hitting the spot. I’ve never quite been a fan of them before. But there’s something about them now that’s just… divine. I’m going to chalk it up to finally watching the newest season of the Great British…

TBR Stack February 2022
January Recap Once again, I’m a tad later posting my TBR stack than I wanted to be. Unfortunately so far this month it’s due to health flare-ups and a lack of work-life balance. I finished quite a few books in January—eleven to be exact! Three ebooks, two audio books, four comic issues, and two physical books. I also DNF’d two books, both of them ebooks. Sabriel by Garth Nix (4 stars) Binti by Nnedi Okorafor (3 stars) Spoiler Alert by Olivia Dade (re-read, 5 stars) Mercy Thompson: Homecoming, Issue #1 (re-read, 3 stars) Mercy Thompson: Homecoming, Issue #2 (re-read, 3 stars) Mercy Thompson: Homecoming, Issue #3 (re-read, 3 stars) Mercy…

December Recap Well, I’m a tad late on this month’s reading recap and TBR Stack, but that’s because I’ve kind of been just caught up in reading.

Currently Nerding, December 2021
Nerding Out Over Reading So far this month I have finished six books… which is more than most months this year, and I still have a few days left. Granted, one or two of those books were a DNF read (did not finish), but I’m also trying to be better about giving myself permission to DNF books. Which may or may not become another post in the future. I also got myself a new reading chair! I used to have a papasan chair there (it’s now in the living room), but it’s just not comfortable for long periods of time. I’ve been eyeing these oversize circle/oval chairs for a while,…

TBR Stack December 2021
November Recap A new month means a new TBR stack! I’m really enjoying these posts. Planning out what to read is, for some reason, an extremely enjoyable endeavor for me. And being able to share that planning is also enjoyable. So let’s get into it. I only finished four books during November, though I am in the process of reading multiple books. What the Hex by Alexis Daria (3 stars) River Marked by Patricia Briggs (re-read, 4 stars) A Reaper at the Gates by Sabaa Tahir (5 stars) Namesake by Adrienne Young (3 stars) Of the four I finished, three were on my TBR for the month. What can I…

Currently Nerding, November 2021
Nerding Out Over Reading I’ve been getting into a lot of reading lately as you may have been able to tell by the TBR lists. Though, honestly, I think it’s safe to say I’ve more been enjoying the reading challenges I’ve found, and trying to fit in the books I already own to these reading challenges. But I’ve also purchased a fair number of books, most of which are for the Kindle. I’ve also picked up some audio books on Audible, and browsed the Audible Plus library to pick up some of the freebies I get for my monthly subscription. Of course, I’m currently working my way through re-reading a…

TBR Stack November 2021
October Recap Last month I wanted to focus on being gentle with myself and try to finish out books I’d already started as a part of my TBR stack. I also wanted to give myself the room to choose comfort reads as I desired. I read six books in October, only three of which were on my TBR list for the month. Bone Crossed by Patricia Briggs (re-read, 4 stars) Darling by K. Ancrum (4 stars) Written in the Stars by Alexandria Bellefleur (4 stars) Silver Borne by Patricia Briggs (re-read, 4 stars) Peter Darling by Austin Chant (3 stars) City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab (4 stars) I liked…

TBR Stack October 2021
Some Thoughts Reading kind of went by the wayside in September due to lack of work and mental health balances. I also already know that it could possibly be a bit of a tough mental health month—my CPTSD has been giving me a bit of a rough time the past few days, so I want to be gentle with myself. Being gentle with myself for October means trying to finish some books I’ve already started, and mainly just giving myself freedom to choose any comfort reads (whether re-reads or new reads in favored genres—largely paranormal romance) I want that are not on this list. I also don’t know that I’m…
