How was your 2019 reading year? What were some of your best bookish discoveries?
📖 (I know y’all have probably already made posts for this and I’m really late to the party lol but bear with me!)
📖
2019 was AMAZINGLY BOOKISH for me. I ended up reading 207 books and never in my life have I read so much in one year! But apparently that’s what being part of the book community did for me 😂 I’m still shook.
📖
My avg rating was 3.8★s, which is great, but I rounded up a lot since @goodreads doesn’t count ½★s. 2019 was the year for contemporary romances & YA fantasy—two of my great loves 🥰 But I also read more NF than usual too (and loved them all)!
📖
I started blogging (link in bio), made lots of new book friends, and joined the @twitter book community! I discovered tons of new-to-me authors, a love for full-cast audiobooks, and a new fave series: The Nevernight Chronicle by the amazingly talented @misterkristoff. Also, how did I ever live without @bookdepository in my life pre-2019?!
📖
It might’ve been one of the most highly rewarding bookish years EVER and I’m so keen to see what other bookish things this new decade has in store!

Hi, it me 🙋🏻♀️ Yes, I’m alive (though I’m not sure anyone here noticed haha)!
🐼
Sorry for going MIA towards the end of December and the start of this new decade. How’s everyone doing?! What’re you reading? Tell me all!
🐼
I’ve been busy getting back into my routine after a short holiday, but I’ve also been spending a lot more my time focused on my blog. I’ve been thinking about my bookish and non-bookish goals this year and I’ve got a lot on my mind about what comes next (so this might be a long post lol)!
🐼
Towards the end of 2019 I felt burned out in many aspects of my life, but especially on bookstagram. I still loved the community, chatting with all of you and seeing your posts, but I felt uninspired and slowed my roll down a lot!
🐼
Having my hands in all the pies (booksta, blog, book twitter) on top of a full time job takes a lot of my energy! So this year I’ve decided to cut back a little on here. My goal is to still post ~x3 per week but I’ll focus heavily on my blog (which you can check out via the link in my bio)! 😉 Though I still hope to interact as much as poss despite not posting as often. I’ve definitely missed all of you and your beautiful posts!
🐼
So, that’s my talk for today lol if you’ve made it this far, thanks for sticking round til the end 🥰 And sorry for the mediocre photo!
