Cossette and I are huge fans of Little Women — she’s the Amy to my Jo, and since we’ve both been on a Little Women kick recently (but when are we not), we decided to team up once again to work on a Little Women comparison post! There are mild spoilers for Little Women below, so please proceed with caution!

Honestly, I still can’t believe it’s September and that we’re now in the “ber” months. Something I’m really excited about this month is the Theatreathon (find out more here) and I thought it would be fun to share my TBR with y’all! I’ve finished a few books already, and I’m really excited to see how many I get to this month.

Hello friends and happy Friday! I’m so excited for Theatreathon (find out more here!) to start, and I figured I’d share my tentative TBR with everyone here! We’ll see if I end up following it, but for now, this is what I’ve got planned!

At the beginning of this month I decided that I’d choose all of my August reads – with the exception of ARCs and book club reads – by pulling prompts out of a jar. With August coming to a close (Miss Swift was right, August really did slip away into a moment in time) I thought it would be fun to look back on the prompts and books I read this month.

In the last two years I’ve read more than I ever have before. That’s partially due to quarantine, but I also noticed a huge change in my reading statistics towards the middle-end of 2019 when I started to really get into audiobooks. As my love for audiobooks has grown exponentially since then, I thought I’d take some time to talk about how audiobooks have changed some of my reading habits and why I love them so much!

So, admittedly nobody tagged me to do this challenge, but after googling some book tags this one seemed like so much fun! This post from paperfury inspired this post, and I took all the tag questions from there. I’ll be tagging some blogs to participate too, so who knows, maybe we’ll get this tag cycling again! Let’s get on with the questions!

In case y’all didn’t know, I’m a mood reader. Meaning there are books that have literally been on my TBR for years that I haven’t read, for no reason other than I haven’t been in the mood to read them. While my mood definitely influences what I decide to read and when, I thought that in the month of August it would be fun to switch it up a little bit!

It’s well into winter here in Australia, and more often than not I have found myself curled up under a blanket devouring book after book. There’s something so calming about reading while it’s raining, and I thought I’d share today some of my favourite picks for reading in this weather. So, keep reading if you want to know my five rainy day read recommendations!

Hello friends! I’m often asked how I read so much and what books I’m loving lately, so I figured I’d do a little post on it today!
If you follow me on Goodreads, Instagram, or any other social media, you might’ve seen that I’ve been on a bit of a reading spree lately: I read 36 books last month, and I just finished book 28! I also wanted to say that we’re all readers, no matter how little or how much we read in a certain timeframe. With all that being said, let’s get started!

Something I’ve recently started doing is annotating my books. I know what some of you are thinking, how could I possibly mark up a book with pens and highlighters of all things, but I promise it’s a lot of fun! There’s something, I dunno, therapeutic about forever marking favourite quotes, passages and simple moments on a page. Through trial and error, I think I have finally found my own annotating system that I thought I would talk you through today! Admittedly, I have only annotated three books so far (and one of them now belongs to Cossette!), but I feel like I have a good grasp on what does and doesn’t work for me. The supplies I typically favour for this process are either brush pens, pastel highlighters and page tabs. Without further adieu, let’s get into it!
