I feel like I should make some sort of apology for the lack of posting as of late. I haven’t read anything in almost two months. It started to feel like a daunting task. The books I have on my TBR shelf, as well as on Kindle and Audible. I started to fall out of…

Life Update
I haven’t posted in a long time, a very long time really and I thought it was about time to address the matter. I stopped reading. Not because I wanted to but because life became more demanding in other areas. Work has become very busy and will probably continue to be busy for the rest…
2023 – A Reading Journey
2023 was a real journey for me. My life got incredibly complex, ridiculously easy, and everything in between! Through all the ups and downs, the celebrations and tantrums, I managed to stick to my reading goal of the year. I wanted to read 50 books in 2023 and I ended up reading 52. I didn’t…
January 2023 Wrap Up
Can’t believe January is already over! This year January seemed to fly by and I can’t tell whether that is a good thing or not! I managed to read more in January than this time last year but still not enough to satisfy my needs. However, January was also a stressful month for work and…

2022 Reading Goal – Completed
It may have escaped your notice – and I can’t even remember if I stated what my book goal was for this year -but I have now completed it. Actually, I completed it a couple of books ago. After the high of reading 130 books in 2019, my reading through 2020, and 2021 suffered greatly….
April 2022 – Life Update
I’ve been suffering – among other things – from readers block. I have the time to read. I have the books to read. I just can’t seem to read. To be honest, it’s been pretty hectic the past couple of months. My hand is almost back to normal, my physio has signed me off and…
1970s – A Decade of Crime – Massacres Part 1
PLEASE UNDERSTAND MY DECISION TO WRITE ABOUT THIS IS PURELY DOWN TO MY OWN INTEREST IN THE NUMBER OF CRIMES I DISCOVERED TOOK PLACE IN THE 1970S. THE IDEA TO WRITE THIS SERIES CAME FROM READING/LISTENING/WATCHING TRUE CRIME STORIES THAT SHOWED AN ALARMING AMOUNT OF ACTIVITY IN THE 1970S. I MERELY WISHED TO LEARN MORE…
Hello 2022
2021 wasn’t the best year for reading. My goal of reading 80 books fell completely short with only 21 books read. Did I feel disappointed in myself? Absolutely. Did I feel guilty for not being as active in the book community? Of course. However, life goes on whether I read or not. The reading woman…
