Reading Challenge #2 Results: Reading Monster/Paranormal book for 24-hours

 Hello, my fellow readers. Well, I hate to say it, but this is another reading challenge I was not able to complete yet again. This challenge resulted in two DNFs and an ebook collection I've  started but didn't finish. 






Both of these books just didn't grab me with the writing style. 


However, even though I haven't finished the first book in this collection, I've been enjoying my time finally getting to Alessa Thorn's collection of their Court of the Underworld series. If you're a fan of Katee Robert's Dark Olympus series, I suggest giving this one a try as well.

December 2023 TBR

Image
Hello, my fellow readers, somehow it's December. It's always interesting when coming up with monthly or seasonal TBRs because if I haven't said the words, I'm very much a mood reader, and different months or seasons throughout the year evoke different moods for reading. Fall is always in this interesting in-between where I want to read and/or continue the major book releases in summer while shifting into more paranormal, fantasy, or mystery/thriller reads that give you that spine-tingling feeling of the fall season. Winter, for me, is still in that realm because I do still to a degree have an interest in reading all of those genres and more, but I think I am definitely, as evidenced by my current TBR, looking to have most of my books be in a more cozy mood.   So to start, and I should add there may be repeats for some lists such as my TBR games because the TBR deities were somewhat kind to me this month with the prompts I got.  So first for my monthly book challenge ...

TBRaThon January 2024

 Hello, my fellow readers, I've just heard there is going to be a new month-long readathon that I can't wait to happen and that is TBRathon created by Booktuber Leandra The TBR Zero.  I love readathons because they can range from very mood or free-form-based to where there may be some very vague prompts or they can be very specific for certain tropes or types of books. This seems like to be a bit more on the former side as there are multiple ways you can approach the books you are reading. This readathon is all about starting the new year off right and getting a solid hold on your TBR. I can personally say my TBR has been and will probably always be out of control with the number of books I want to read, but I've slowly come to accept that about myself and as a reader. However, that doesn't stop me from setting reading goals for myself each and this readathon sounds just like the thing I need to start the new year off the way I want and try to get to a moderate to good ...
