I ended up taking an unintentional break from blogging.

The list of why/how this happened is really long, but to run it down and make it short- Back-to-back illness, changes/stresses at work, difficulty sleeping, and mental health issues cause by those 2 factors as well as other personal issues. I’ve definitely been feeling like I’m running on empty/near empty for months now. I’m in and out of feeling well both physically and mentally. So with the rollercoaster ride I’ve been on, it’s made it hard to find the motivation to write or really do much of anything.

But I am hoping that the good feeling I’m having today will give me the energy to write some other blog posts that I will be able to post throughout the days to come. I am hoping to be back on a 1-2 times a week schedule starting this week, but we’ll see!

So for tomorrow’s post (Sunday), I will be posting the long overdue February & March 2023 Reading Update. I will be combining them together just so I’m caught up!

I also have some book reviews I will be posting throughout the weeks to come. Some I liked better than others!

Lastly, sometime this month I will be starting a new series called “Revisiting Series/Books I Haven’t Read In Awhile”. I have been utilizing my library card like crazy (I have over 50 books out right now), so it has allowed me to find new books to read while also coming across books I once read/loved and give then a reread. The first book I will be doing this series on is Tess of the D’Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy.

Sorry this is short, but I figured a first post shouldn’t be super long. I hope everyone has been doing well. Tell me about your 2023 so far! Have a great weekend everyone!
