Hello all!
I have not written a wrap-up in FOREVER! But I had such a successful first month of the year, I thought I would share it with you all. Should we place bets to see if I post a wrap-up for every month this year? I put 20 bucks on me disappearing for a couple months. But… I am going to try really hard. I promise.

Talk to me!
How was your January?
How many books did you read?
What are you looking forward to for February?
Let me know in the comments!
Love,

Well done posting a wrap up, I believe in you, you can do one every month! I start mine when I finish my first book of the month and I keep adding to it as I go.
I really need to read All the Light We Cannot See, I’ve had a copy for ages!
That is probably what I should be doing! That is so smart because sometimes it is hard for me to remember all I did in the month lol. I had All the Light We Cannot See on my shelf for about a year before I read it but it was so worth it!
It is really helpful! Good luck in future! 😊 maybe I’ll have to bump it up my TBR then 😊
Thank you! Please let me know your thoughts! I would love to discuss 😊
My January has felt like a long month! I have only read 1 book this month which I am upset about. I am just looking froward to February being a better month for me! Lovely post! 🙂
It was a very long month! I often only read 1 book a month, as I am a pretty slow reader haha! But here is hoping for a good February!
I agree with Kate, I usually make a post at the beginning of the month and slowly add to it as I read throughout the month. It’s easier that way than making one in one sitting. Also I’m so glad you enjoyed Shadow and Bone!
Yeah, I am definitely going to have to start doing that haha! And yes, it was so good. I just started Seige and Storm and I am hoping to finsih it within the next week
Ooh I hope you enjoy Rebel, its one of my favourite series 🙂
You’ve read some excellent books in January.

Thank you! I have heard such good things about it.
Fantastic reading month!
Thank you so much! It felt very productive.
All the Light We Cannot See has been on my tbr pile for some time now. The fact that it got a perfect score means that I need to pick it up lol. Great post!
It sat on my TBR for a very long time! I was not dissapointed once I finally picked it up. I hope you enjoy it!
oh im rly happy that u enjoyewd shadow asbd bone even in this year! as iove heard a few people arent super fond of it comp ared to soc
I have heard that as well. I havn’t read SOC yet and I am kind of glad I haven’t because maybe that way I will enjoy both of them. We will have to see haha
Awesome reading month!
Thank you! I hope I can keep the same energy through the rest of the year.
Thank you! I really did, and am I am excited to dive into the rest of the series.
Haha I was really impressed with myself! I haven’t read this much in a long time. But I know I won’t keep this up for the whole year haha
It was such a good month! I am so happy with myself haha
I do that too! It is a real problem when, instead of reading, I find myself staring at the 5 books I am currently reading hahah! I am excited for On the Come Up too! So interesting.
What a great start to the reading year, well done! I’ve read three books so far 😊 Had All The Lights We Cannot See as a Bookish Secret Santa present, can’t wait to get stuck in!
How exciting! I hope you end up enjoying All the Light We Cannot See!
Wow! 11 is pretty impressive. This is my second time reading Strange the Dreamer, actually, so I am enjoying it just as much as the first time. I wanted to reread it before reading Muse of Nightmares.
I am enjoying Seige of Storm. Except, I am only at the beginning so I don’t think I have met Lantsov yet.
