Goodbye, November!

December 2, 2020

Oh look, an entire month went by and I didn’t post once.

As I said in my October wrap-up, I started to go through a phase where reading wasn’t sparking much joy, and that period stretched out into November. This is fine, I have other non-book hobbies that I tend to hyperfixate on at least a few months out of the year. But when my four-day Thanksgiving weekend rolled around, absolutely nothing gave me more joy than devouring category romances—I read like 16 books in those 4 days. (As I said, I tend to hyperfixate on things.)

So! There you have it. I started November being all “bleh” about books and now I’m attempting to engulf every single cheesy Christmas Harlequin my library has.


Reading Analytics (for the nerds)

ALL the November Books!

And here’s a pretty overview of all the things I read in November:

25 books found


What’s coming next?

Well. As I write this, I’m about 20 books away from reading 200 books total in 2020, so probably I’ll just continue to mainline category romances until I hit that. (It’s the first time since I started law school that I’ve been able to read so many books, which is nice.)

If I can accomplish that (or if I get tired of romance), I’d like to read some of the “thicker” sci-fi/fantasy releases I missed out on this year, since I apparently only decided I even like reading SFF in August. So much to read, so very little time left to read it in.

    My library goes through phases of purchasing a ton of Harlequin Romances, then none for months and months, then suddenly a ton! But it’s still a pretty small collection, which I’d like to tackle sometime. I’m glad you’re finding joy in these! 😀
