Resolutions/Hopes for 2021


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, where book bloggers are invited to share their top ten lists centered on a certain topic.


This week’s topic is “resolutions/hopes for 2021”. I’m pretty sure I can guess what a lot of people hope for 2021… for it to be better than 2020. I’m hoping everyone has a better year than they did last year.


Let me know in the comments what some of your resolutions/hopes are for 2021! Unfortunately, I don’t have a lot of resolutions or hopes for 2021 because let’s face it… you never know what will happen. I don’t want to get my hopes up for anything just for it to be smashed.

Keep Up With My Blog


One of my main goals for this year is to keep up with my blog! I used to love blogging until I switched to WordPress and just felt pressured to get likes. Numbers became everything. When I originally started, I hardly got any views and any followers. I was never stressed about blogging.


I am now extremely content with how my blog looks. I’m still working on how I want my book photos to look but I’m trying not to stress about it. I deleted all of my old posts and will no longer stress myself out about adding them to my new blog.

More Giveaways


I want to run more giveaways in the future. Maybe not right now, this may have to wait until after we receive our tax refund. I want to make sure I knock some bills down before I start promising giveaways because I don’t want to get anyone’s hopes up if I have to cancel due to overlooking a bill.


*shameless plug* be sure to follow my blog because this is where I’ll be running those international giveaways!

Fewer Bills


I kind of touched on this in my last one. I want fewer monthly bills. We have so many monthly payments, it’s insane. If we cut them all out, we’d have at least $600 more a month! That would definitely help out with me wanting to do more giveaways and put more cash in savings.

100 Books Read


One of the few good things to come out of 2020… I was able to read 123 books! I really want to try and make this goal this year. Although according to Goodreads, I’m already one book behind schedule. I’m going to try and read more and stop letting my brain get distracted!

Happenings Away From The Blog Hello and welcome back to my blog! I decided to start blogging again last week. I’m currently still going strong. By that, I mean I haven’t wanted to quit yet. I’m beginning to realize that going to WordPress is what makes me hate blogging. I’m not going back there again. In the coming weeks, I may not be blogging as much though. We’re in the process of moving so my spare time is either spent cleaning or packing. We haven’t moved since 2012 and I’m extremely nervous about this move. I’m also extremely annoyed that I have so many books to pack. As much as I love my books, I never thought I would ever have to move them. This is kind of part of the reason why I haven’t been buying as many physical books. Not much has happened work-wise. I got a super nice compliment from a client and it made me feel a lot better about what I do at work. I also took three days off, equalling five days off work. My son starts school again on Tuesday and I’m currently just helpi

Books On My Fall TBR!

Top Ten Tuesday was created by  The Broke and the Bookish and is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl . This week’s prompt is to talk about the books on our Fall TBR!  I'm not going to lie, I don't normally make any TBRs. I typically choose a book at random to read. I do this in order to make sure every single book on my TBR has a chance to be read. Babel by R.F. Kuag: I am actually dying to read this book. I have seen nothing but great reviews for this one. Luckily, if I love it, I already have two beautiful editions 😍 Mistakes Were Made by Meryl Wilsner: I actually have an arc of this one from NetGalley. I highly enjoyed Meryl's debut novel and I'm excited to see if I will feel the same about her newer release. Haunting Adeline by H.D. Carlton: Soooo many people have read and loved this book. I love a good dark romance and I'm definitely making sure I pick this one up soon. A Light In The Flame by Jennifer L. Armentrout: This one doesn't come out for a w
