Hi Everyone! Hope you all had a great November. My November is great! Although, I do feel bad that I didn’t get to read any books requested by the individual authors, I still feel accomplished to have removed these books from my TBR list! You all should know that I don’t get paid for reading and reviewing books. I do because I love it and I tried not to give myself too much pressure. You should too! I think pressure causes reading slump as well as after a good book haha..
I am having 4 Buddy Reads set up for December and I am super duper excited!
- Hunted by Meagan Spooner with Sam @ One Bookish Girl
- Ever the Hunted by Erin Summerill with Stephanie @ Teacher of YA
- A List of Cages by Robin Roe with Irena @ Book Dust Magic
- Melody’s Key by Dallas Coryell with Beth @ Betwixt-these-pages
Here are the books I have read and reviewed in November:
- The Wrath & the Dawn by Renee Ahdieh – Buddy Read with Lia @ Lost in a Story. I rated it 4 stars!
2. Tow-Truck Pluck by Annie M.G. Schmidt. I rated it 5 stars!
3. Gilded Cage by Vic James. I rated it 5 stars!
4. The Fir Tree by Hans Christian Andersen. I rated it 4 stars!
5. The Whizbang Machine by Danielle A. Vann. I rated it 4.5 stars!
6. Girl Online by Zoe Sugg and Ghostwriter Siobhan Curham. Buddy Read with B @ IceBreaker694. I rated it 5 stars!
Bucket List:
Magic Kingdom, Disney World, Florida, USA
Award Nominations:

Nah… I have been around much longer, since July 2014. I was not active & totally into books until May 2016. I guess I was more focused since I met you 😊

Congratulations on the followers. I like what you said about not putting pressure on yourself. Sometimes reading and reviewing feels like a job so it can be overwhelming but its good to remain focused on why we do this. Have a wonderful December 🙂

First of all, congrats on reaching 500 followers!
You’re so right! We shouldn’t stress ourselves too much, since you read for free, and it’s not your job to review, I hope authors and publishers understand that it actually takes hours to read a book and then write a review.
I’m looking forward to our List of Cages buddy read! 🙂

Thank you! 💕 Some people can finish a book in one sitting or in a couple of hours. I can’t read that fast 😂 I will try to finish Roseblood tonight & send you the answers tomorrow. I’m looking forward to List of Cages too! The synopsis sounds interesting.
