Top Ten Tuesday: Looking back at spring and summer

 Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books I Was Assigned to Read in School (These can be books you loved or hated. Or just tolerated. Bonus points if you give us a tiny review of your thoughts!) I have been out of school for a LONG time, including graduate school, so I am going to go a different direction today. I will revisit my spring and summer TBRs and see how I did. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.  

Top Ten Tuesday Spring and Summer TBR update:

June 2024 Reading Wrap Up

June was a crazy, busy month that felt like about 600 years. I feel like I did a fair amount of reading, but I also felt like it was taking me forever to finish each book. So let's see what it actually looks like 😂. I read 15 books and DNF'd one. Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in the review.

Top Ten Tuesday-Summer Reading Plan 2024

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books on My Summer 2024 To-Read List.  I haven't been doing lists like this this year, just trying to mostly go with the flow. However, I do have some ARCs I have signed up for and a few books I would like to get to (I won't include the two ARCs I am currently reading). So, let's see what the plan should be 😉 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.

Hey bookish friends! How are you doing? We got back from NC on Monday evening, and back to work on Tuesday. It was a long week and I am glad it's the weekend. This is the first Saturday I have had off in forever. I was trying to get a few things done, but I feel like I am coming down with something, so going to take it easy the rest of the day.

Hey bookish friends! How are you all doing? Any plans for the weekend? After getting home last weekend, my husband told me my son wasn't feeling that great. He ended up in the doctor's office Tuesday, a specialist on Wednesday, and surgery on Thursday. He is doing better, and on the road to recovery! Today, my daughter was heading back to college when she put her window down at a drive-thru and it refused to go back up 🤦, so she now has my car and hers will go in the shop on Monday. It has been a wild, busy, crazy week. The plan this weekend is to sew some projects, read, blog, and relax. Next week is another busy week, so really hoping to have a lot of downtime this weekend.
