We have reached another Monday, friends! I still can’t believe that it’s already February. I had a better reading month last month than I anticipated, and actually started out the year strong! I’m back to kind of reading a bit each night. It’s been nice to not feel too stressed out. Anyway, let’s get to books, shall we? Read Last Week: Last week I finished 100 Kisses by Malia Ann Haberman, which was an adorable romantic comedy! Highly recommended if you’re looking for something fun, sweet, and perfect reading for this month! Currently Reading: I’ve been listening to the audio…

Apologies for the radio silence friends! I hoped to have a book review to share with you today but, well, the current state of our country has been weighing heavy and I haven’t felt much like finishing my book. I’m sure I’m not alone, but it’s been a rough few days for productivity of any kind. Still, I promised myself that we’d start 2021 out strong here at HDB Blog, so let’s take baby steps with a weekly meme shall we? Read Last Week: As I mentioned, I haven’t finished a book at all yet. Alas. I probably would have…

Good morning friends! We have made it to the last Monday of the year. How are we feeling? If you’re like me, you might feel torn between having hope and worrying that we’re in for a lot more of the same. But the good thing is that we’ve made it this far! We’ve survived. That is something to celebrate. Anyway, enough rambling from me. Let’s get back to bookish things. I think I’ve been doing pretty well at posting in here semi-regularly, and plan to push that into the new year! I enjoy this a lot! Read Last Week: I…

Good morning friends! It’s another Monday and, once again, it feels like all the time and no time at all passed. Can you believe Christmas is less than a month away? I still can’t. It’s crazy. Still, it is indeed Monday and that means it is once again time to share my reading! Read Last Week: I think you all know that I’ve been reading really slowly, so this is the only book that I finished last week. Trust me when I say that it was 100% worth the time though, because I loved it! Leah Johnson has crafted a…

Ready to see what we're reading this week, and what we've finished? Here's your chance to get a glimpse! Happy Monday!

It is Monday once again friends, and hopefully it’s treating you kindly. I apologize for being so scarce around here lately. I was burnt out, I went on vacation and had a blast, and then I came back and I still can’t seem to get back into the groove of things. Trust me, I’m trying! It’s just going slower than I’d like. So if you see a bunch of pre-made posts for a bit, that’s why. Thanks in advance for cutting me some slack. That being said, I’ve started reading in earnest again and I am actually excited to share…

Happy Monday, my little readers! I’m hoping you had as lovely of a weekend as I did! I didn’t get much reading done, but honestly it was kind of nice to take a break. I spent time with family and friends, ate way too much good food, and just spent time with my hubby. Weekends like that keep me sane, and so I’m not too sad that I had to give up reading time. I’ll make up for it this week, I’m sure! Here’s how my reading is going right now. Last week I finished, and reviewed, We Rule the…

Sorry for the radio silence last week, y’all! I was sick on Monday, and then the work week ended up being a lot busier than I expected. It’s crazy how my anxiety can go from being 100% manageable, to exhausting, in no time flat. This last week was quite the balancing act, but I did! And I’m proud of myself. Which is why my reading stalled out a bit, but picked up again yesterday. Here’s what it looks like now! For Romance Bingo I decided to re-read The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight, and it was a great…

Oh, wow. How the heck have 13 days of the year already flown by? It feels like the first two weeks of January barely count at all, because everyone is trying to get back from vacation, get back to real life, and settle back into the work they left behind. It’s been a weird transition for me, because I feel like a new person this year. I’ve been calmly keeping up with my goals, and reading like a mad woman. I think books are my definite solace this year, and it helps that I’m taking breaks when I need it.…

Apologies for the radio silence all. It’s been a rough last two weeks, and I’ve been trying to dig myself out of a funk that was so deep that I’ve actually barely been reading at all. I love the holidays, I really do. Family, friends, and food. All good things. However they also bring with them memories of loss, and this year we’ve added another loss to that list. It’s hard to separate the feelings I have right now, but I’ve been doing the best I can to keep on keeping on. So, I took a blogging break to let…
