November 2024 Reading Wrap-Up

Here we are for another monthly wrap up fa la la la la la la la la. I have no idea how it is already December. It's hard to slow down and enjoy anything when time is marching along at warp speed. I feel like November was a good reading month, so let's get to it!  I read 17 books and DNF'd one. Click on the cover of the book if you are interested in the review.

5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

My Review:

Of Gold and Shadows is the first book I have read by Michelle Griep, but it won't be my last. She is an author I have been meaning to try, so when the opportunity to review this book presented itself, I accepted.

Stacking the Shelves #140, Sunday Post #137, Sunday Salon #131

Hey bookish friends! How are you doing? I am doing alright. It was a super busy week, the colonoscopy went fine, other than putting me down longer than
anticipated. The sleepy drugs didn't wear off until late Tuesday, which was super weird and unwelcome. I will get the results back from the biopsies this week. I did not get much reading done this week. I worked on random stuff this morning, and hope to relax the rest of the weekend!

Top Ten Tuesday-Shiny books still sitting unread

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Books I Was Super Excited to Get My Hands on but Still Haven’t Read. So, I see we are having confessional today, LOL! I am not sure I really want to confess, but I will because I know I am not alone!! The hardest part is going to be narrowing it down to ten. I will also say, some were gifted, some were won, and some I did actually buy.

Top Ten Tuesday-Green Covers

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday is Weird or Funny Things I’ve Googled Thanks to a Book (Submitted by Astilbe @ Long and Short Reviews) As someone who rarely ever googles things from books I read, I am going to skip this topic. Instead, I am going to do green covers in honor of St. Patrick's Day coming up.

Hey bookish friends! How are things going for you? I had a superficial keratectomy Thursday evening, so I am recovering, it's hard to see, read, or do just about anything.  Please be patient with me as it will take a while to visit your blog, my eye sight will take a while to return to normal.

Top Ten Tuesday-Couples

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is books with [__] on the cover. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do today's topic on. I started looking through the books I physically own and decided to feature couples. Out of 158 books only 13 had couples on them... and I'm not entirely sure one of them counts...I will let you decide 😂 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. 

Books I own that I still need to read with couples on them:

Top Ten Tuesday-2021 releases I still need to read

Happy Tuesday my bookish friends!! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! We had an ice storm come through on Sunday with a little bit of snow, so we were in Sunday and Monday (not complaining!). I enjoyed the time to read, blog, and spend with my family with very little distractions.Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is 2021 new releases that I was excited to get to, but didn't. At first I didn't think I would have that many, but looking back I actually had 32 books that I was really looking forward to and wanting to read.
