📚 How are you doing with your reading challenges and goals for the year? Happy Stack Saturday, Bookworms … Are you doing any reading challenges or goals this year? If so, how are you doing with them? 📚 I am only doing the Goodreads challenge this year, I’m about 6 books away from finishing it. I set my goal pretty low this year and I had hoped to actually read more than what I had set, but it didn’t quite work out the way I had hoped. Such is life. 😏 There are 15 days left in the year, and I still got a lot of reading left in me, so hopefully I will finish up my goal. ❤️ What about you guys? How are you doing with your reading challenges and goals? Also, throwback photo from last year, because it’s been too rainy to take photos. 😅 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 #AlltheBooksDec22 #MyFictionalMusings #CourtofReadingDec22 #ReadingintheWeb 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 #bookstack #stacksaturday #bookpile #candycanestack #books #reading #bookstagram #booksbooksbooks #currentlyreading #amreading #weekendreading #tbr #yabooks #romancebooks #fantasybooks #booklover #bookobsessed #bookcommunity #booknerd #bookphoto #readmore #booksaremagic #christmasvibes #cozyreading #booksofinstagram #goodreadschallenge 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 https://www.instagram.com/p/CmRNaIIu14C/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My weekend read-a-thon

I’ve been seeing people do these to catch up and I love it so much. We used to do them in elementary school to catch up on AR points and it was my favorite day of the term so. I also have 10 library books currently checked out so 💀

Wish me luck!

I am 50% into my first read of Disappearing Acts by Terry McMillan and immediately from the first page I had to annotate. So far, this book has me talking back more than I usually do in response and reactions to the characters. As individuals they are complex and together they are even more complicated. Further into my reading, my mind continues to wonder in frustration. - Why are they still dealing with each other? - How does someone work through their emotions in relation to their partners decisions and behavior when those actions consistently impact them both negatively? - After more valleys than peaks, and so many red flags, when does someone finally say they must put themselves first and remove themselves from a relationship? These characters continuously say they love each other and although there are actions to back it up, their inner thoughts expose that it’s more performative than them trying to actually make those actions of ‘love’ a habit. I say all that to say, this weekend read is putting me through it (lol). Frankie and Zora. Father God, Jesus of Nazareth, help them Lord, because this ain’t it #IYKYK My question to you all is, would you give someone a chance to enter your life solely based on the principle of the potential of what the person can be? I’m aware that most of us do end up in relationships (romantic and platonic) and we more often than not start with seeing the potential in someone adding to our lives. When does potential in relationships turn into a liability for you?

What fictional characters would you take out on a coffee date? ☕️🍂🤎 . Forever dreaming about the possibility of hanging out with our favorite fictional characters! Since sister made a Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake so we can watch the first mid-season finale of Spy x Family tonight, it would be wrong of us to not pick the Forger Family! 🥺🤎 . But other bookish characters we would love to have a coffee date with would be: The Crows, Senera & Thurvishar from The Ruin of Kings, and Xyngyin from Daughter of the Moon Goddess. 🍂 Although we would love to meet everyone! . . #bookstagramming #weekendreading #bookobsession #bookwormlife #bookworld #cottagecoreaesthetic #booktography #darkacademiastyle #darkacademiabooks #cozybookstagram #booksandbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/CfPTeydJBzb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Why not spend the weekend relaxing with Riley?

“Good evening,” began Garrett, a hint of nerves evident in his voice. “Welcome along to my humble abode to celebrate the launch of Riley’s debut album, Firefly Dreams.” There was a polite round of applause before Dr Marrs began to speak, “I first heard this young lady when she visited JJL as part of a high school music workshop. Her voice immediately caught my ear. A few weeks later, I invited…

📚 What holiday books & movies are you reading/watching this month? And/or, what are you reading this weekend?? Friday has finally arrived, Bookworms. Do you have any fun reading plans, or other plans, this weekend? I am hoping to spend the weekend reading and watching holiday movies. (We shall see if it actually happens though. 😏) Are you reading any holiday books or watching any holiday movies this month? I have a lot of holiday books picked out to read this month. A few of them are pictured above, and I also have a few ebooks and audiobooks borrowed from the library as well. I’m hoping to get to as many of them as I can. I’ve already read one from the stack above, and I’m hoping to finish up the second one today. Next on my TBR is *Season of Love* by Helena Greer. It sounds so cute! ❤️ As for movies, my go-to favorite holiday movies are While You Were Sleeping and You’ve Got Mail … Though, YGM is really a great movie for any season. ❤️ What holiday books and movies will you be enjoying this month? (Or what are some of your favorites?) And if you’re not reading or watching any holiday things this month, what are you reading this weekend? 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 #AlltheBooksDec22 #MyFictionalMusings #CourtofReadingDec22 #ReadingintheWeb 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 🌲 📚 #bookstack #holidayreads #weekendreading #fridayreads #currentlyreading #amreading #tbr #toberead #romancebooks #romancereader #yabooks #bookstagram #shelfie #booklover #bookobsessed #cozyreading #bookaesthetic #booknerd #booksaremagic #reading #books #readerlife #readingtime #newbooks #goodreads #bookcommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl8lyzGudvH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Stuck between upbringing and a sense of justice, the character of Miranda tries to reason with herself. Her feelings felt right, but there was a sense of danger to them. She had been raised the opposite way. Get yourself wrapped up in breaking the chains. It's difficult to break the mold. Your always questioning yourself, between what you know and what had been ingrained into you... #LadyJustice #CourtOfLaw #DefenseOfTheWeak #Trailblazer #MarriageVows #ExtraMaritalAffair #NewThinking #ReligiousStrife #Reformation #Theocracy #ReligiousAndSecular #EpicFantasy #DarkFantasy #HighFantasy #SwordAndSorcery #ActionAdventure #LBGTQRomance #LBGTQ #WeekendReading #CoffeeCurrentlyReading #SpringTimeReading #Outlander #LordOfTheRings #Cinder #HistoricalFiction #PhilippaGregory #AlisonWeir #DanJones #DavidStarkey #JRRTolkien https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp6WbEGMSUw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
