Another Very Good Reading Month | Feb Wrap Up

Mar 2, 2023

I had another really good reading month in February. I did think I was going into a slump and I did for a few days. But I ended up reading 21 books. It was a mix of romance books this month from contemporary to paranormal. Too new to me authors and some old favourites.

I’m really happy with how my reading turned out this month. I was nervous for a little bit thinking I would go into a slump but I did some re-reads and books that have been on my tbr for a little while and quickly fell out of it.

So let’s get into it because I read quite a bit this month. Here are all the books that I read this February which lead to another good reading month. As always these are in no real order.

A Very Good Start To The Year | January Wrap Up

Feb 5, 2023

Welcome to the first wrap-up of 2023. I can’t believe another month is over. But it’s time for one of my favourite type of posts. I had a fantastic January and a very good start to the year. I’m not too sure what happened but I read quite a bit. In the end, I read 31 books this January.

I also like the range of books I read this month. While all romance there were some monster and fantasy romances, to contemporary and MC. It made reading this month really easy if I felt myself going into a slump. I would pick up a different genre and read it. I had some fantastic books this month and some that were not so great. It was a range really. And that just made reading so much better.

So let’s get into it. These are the books that I read this January and they led me to have a very good start to the year. As always these are in no. order.
