So many words. So little time.

This was a better writing week! I wrote three books reviews, The Secret Book Society, by Madeline Martin, Lauryn Harper Falls Apart, by Shauna Robinson, and The Book of Guilt, by Catherine Chidgey (I’m only recommending the first read, which was wonderful!), and I think I managed to journal every day, too.
Happy writing!
This week, like last week, was a slow writing week. I didn’t journal every day, and I only wrote one book review, Love is an Open Book, by Chandra Blumberg. It was a tough week. Hopefully next week will be better.
Happy writing!
I was super busy this week, so I didn’t get much reading or writing done this week. One book review, Wish You Were Her, by Elle McNicoll, and I didn’t even journal every day. Hopefully next week will be better.
Happy writing!
This was an okay writing week: I wrote two book reviews, Friends to Lovers, by Sally Blakely and Through an Open Window, by Pamela Terry. Both were good reads, but I absolutely loved Through and Open Window. I also DNFed three books, Rivals to Lovers, by Elise Wayland, Influenced, by Sarah Darer Littman, and The Book Of Heartbreak, by Ova Ceren.
Happy writing!
This was a great writing week! I wrote five book reviews and DNFed on. Reviews written: A Botanist’s Guide to Rituals and Revenge, by Kate Khavari, Girls of Dark Divine, by E. V. Woods, The Magician of Tiger Castle, by Louis Sachar, Woven From Clay, by Jenny Birch, and For the Record, by Emma Lord. DNFed Rivals to Lovers, by Elise Wayland. Just no.
Happy writing!
This was a good writing week! I wrote four book reviews: The Sandy Page Bookshop, by Hannah McKinnon, Give Me a Reason, by Jayci Lee, Road Trip with a Rogue, by Kate Bateman, and The Alchemy of Flowers, by Laura Resau. I also DNFed In the Veins of the Drowning, by Kalie Cassidy, Smuggler’s Cover, by Fern Michaels, and Mistress of Bones, by Maria Z. Medina.
Happy writing!
I wrote three book reviews this week: Grave Birds, by Dana Elmendorf, Fire Mountain, by Dana Mentink, and Reports of His Death Have Been Greatly Exaggerated, by James Goodhand. That last one I DNFed, but it’s for a blog tour, so I did review it. I also DNFed All the Men I’ve Loved Again, by Christine Pride and The Odds of Getting Even, by Amanda Sellet because the MCs were just not for me.
Hopefully next week will be better.
Happy writing!
This was another good writing week. I wrote four book reviews: Den of Liars, by Jessica S. Olson, An Irish Summer, by Alexandra Paigeff, Vanished, by Dr. David Jeremiah, and The Lost Book of First Loves, by RaeAnne Thayne.
Happy Writing!
This was another great writing week! Journaling, and four book reviews: A Magic Deep and Drowning, by Hester Fox, Pretty Girl County, by Lakita Wilson, Party of Liars, by Kelsey Cox, and Let’s Make a Scene, by Laura Wood. I think my Muse is starting to show some faint stirrings of interest in fiction again, too.
Happy writing!
In May, I read 21 books. There were a couple of “meh” reads plus a handful I DNFed, but there were also several that were really good.
The Winter Sea, by Susanna Kearsley. I loved this novel-within-a-novel! The setting—in both stories/timelines—was vividly drawn, and I just enjoyed the characters so much. Can’t wait to read the next one (which I’m doing right now).
A Forgery of Fate, by Elizabeth Lim. Elizabeth Lim is a talented writer, and this story was no exception. I found the setting quite unique, and I enjoyed the cultures and the characters.
River Road, by Charles Martin. Yes, he’s my favorite author, but it was fascinating to see not only how his writing skills grew in these essays, but how his childhood shaped him into the man that writes such powerful stories.
