Monthly Wrap Up | November 2021 | Blogmas 2021: Day 1
Good morning readers, and welcome to my first post of Blogmas 2021! November has been an insanely busy month, so I’m less prepared for the upcoming weeks than I would like, but I have my fingers crossed that I’ll be able to catch up on some reading soon. Speaking of reading, this past month has been rather disappointing in the number of books I managed to get through, but on the bright side, I’m only 8 books away from my reading challenge goal! Let’s take a look at what was probably the quietest month on my blog in a while.

Blogmas Announcement 2021!
Hey readers! Announcement time – I’m going to be doing Blogmas again this year! With how hectic things have been recently, I nearly called it off, but it was so much fun last year that I decided to at least try. I’m hoping to post daily starting Wednesday, December 1st, until Christmas. As before, not all my posts will be Christmas or holiday themed, but I’m doing my best to work in as much festive content as I can, especially given the time crunch this year.
Here are a few types of posts you can expect to see on my blog this December:
- Book reviews on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays as usual
- WWW Wednesdays & Let’s Talk Bookish weekly
- Year end posts featuring my favourite books of 2021 and what I’m looking forward to next year
- Festive book tags
You can find all posts archived under the Blogmas tag here on my blog as they begin to go live starting this Wednesday.
Are any of you doing Blogmas this year? Do feel free to let me know if you have any suggestions on what type of posts you’d like to see!

Blogmas Day 25
🎄🎁Merry Christmas!!🎁🎄
It’s the last day of Blogmas, and I can’t believe I actually managed to complete the entire thing my first year! I was supposed to round things off with a book review, but it didn’t feel nearly festive enough, so I’m ending Blogmas 2020 with another Christmassy tag based on Harry Potter, which is always a book that comes to mind at this time of year! I found this tag over at Book and Corner.

End of the Year Book Tag
Blogmas Day 24
Good morning readers, and Happy Christmas Eve! For the penultimate day of Blogmas, I’m doing a book tag! I found this tag on Green Tea & Paperbacks and this is a tag I loved reading on so many blogs last year that I just had to do it myself this year. Now that I’m done with the majority of my reading for the year, I have a good idea of how many more I can get through in this last week and it’s the perfect time for a tag like this!

Blogmas Day 22
Welcome to Blogmas Day 22! I know this is supposed to be review day, but just as I predicted, some of my holds got delayed and I got the book only yesterday, so I’m having to rearrange the schedule for these last few days of Blogmas. In the meantime, it’s about time I caught up on these posts!
What is the Sunshine Blogger Award?
The Sunshine Blogger Award is given to those who are creative, positive and inspiring while spreading sunshine to the blogging community.
Thank you to Susan @Novel Lives, Anna @Anna’s Book Nook and Lori @TheReadingFairy for nominating me for this award!

Best of 2020
Blogmas Day 21
Welcome to Day 21 of Blogmas 2020! This has to be the post I look forward to writing the most every year, where I share the books that made my best of shelf for the year. My regular readers will know that I don’t rarely rate a book above 4 stars and even fewer of those make this list. This year, of the 200+ books I’ve read this year, I’ve chosen 8 for this list. As a reminder of the criteria I use for this list, the book has to be published in the same year, I should have given it a rating of 4 stars or higher, with something that I felt made it stand out over the other books – and for once, yes, the books are in order this year. Without further ado, let’s check out my favourite books of 2020!

Welcome to Day 14 of Blogmas 2020! I can’t believe this year is almost over! It’s been the longest year, but on the bookish front, we’ve had some pretty great reads. Looking forward to the next season, putting together this list of my most awaited winter releases (through April 2021) was easily the hardest one yet – there are simply so many amazing books to look forward to and limiting myself to ten was quite the task.
