This is a shame post. Specifically, I'm calling myself out for inactivity here! Between school, work, and a million other things, I let blogging fall by the wayside. Yikes! My TBR pile is screaming at me (the section of unread/unreviewed ARCs is loudest) and I dearly miss sharing my reviews and recommendation collections with you all. I also noticed that I simply forgot to do a November Cover Love! That mistake will be rectified tomorrow--I'll post as soon as I'm able. For accountability, I also should say that I have upcoming reviews for Admission by Julie Buxbaum (read) and Hush by Dylan Farrow (as soon as I finish reading) amongst others.
Truly an egregious oversight on my part, however... it's kind of inevitable when entire weeks go by in the blink of an eye and I can barely get out of bed some days. There's a tough bit of honesty. The "Quarantine" part of #QuarantineReads is starting to get me down again now that it's a true New England winter, terrible weather and all. Even bookstagramming every day becomes difficult when the nights creep in earlier and blur my days together. Readers, I'm just here to tell you that it's okay if tasks are hard right now. It's okay to rest for a while. I wouldn't have agreed with that a few years ago, but I'm wiser (or possibly just jaded) now, and I think it's better to excel and be late than push myself too far and be on time. I haven't been reading as much this fall as I did during the summer, either. I finish more books than many people do (and any amount of reading is amazing--don't let anyone make you feel inferior for how much you read), but it's still fewer than my usual, and that saddens me. There are so many amazing stories out there, and I hear about so many of them by being connected to the publishing world! I just want to read everything and never leave my library! Alas, when real life calls me I must answer. Until next time, lovelies. Thank you for your patience with me. If you want to chat, I'm always available by email!
