One month down already…..I hope the year has been kind to you so far, and continues to be so.
For me 2026 has been a kind of slow busy…if that can be a thing. I’ve had long lists of ‘stuff’ that I wanted to get done to set myself up for the new year, which I have mostly been able to check off, even as I’ve plodded along. I’ve spent more time with family over this month than I normally would do, and even after the social hangover I had to endure, I would definitely like to do more of that this year. I already have plans for my first trip this year and I’m three days (and one reflective essay) away from finishing my first uni trimester.
Reading wise, I have made some great book choices to start off the year. Mostly romance…because I am who I am. I also read my first non-fiction book of the year and, unfortunately, I had my first DNF – an ARC that I just could not get into no matter how hard I tried.
