It is finally the last day of January! This month has felt like it has been three months in one and I am so ready for it to be over. I've done a lot this month, been to concerts, the cinema, on a lot of walks and a whole bunch more. Here is what happened in January!

What I Read in January!
January always feels extra long in comparison to other months and this January has been no different. I've read 8 books throughout January, which is less than I expected but still excellent. So, I'm back with another post about what I've read this month. In this post you will find a bunch of mini reviews for the books I've read in January! Here they are!
TBR Books to Tackle!
My TBR never shrinks it always grows and some of the books on my TBR have been on there for a long time. So, I wanted to make a list of some books on my TBR that I would like to tackle throughout 2023. Here they are!
Currently I’m…
I'm one of those people who always asks others what they are reading, watching and listening to. So, I started doing the 'Currently I'm...' posts to share my current books, TV shows and songs for other people who are as curious as I am. Here is what I am currently reading, watching and listening to.
The Way I Used to Be by Amber Smith – Quote
A few days ago, I finished reading The Way I Used to Be by Amber Smith and it is a truly unforgettable book. It is a story that will stick with me for a very long time. The book is full of beautiful quotes, so, I wanted to do what I normally do with a book that I enjoy, which is pick a quote from it and get designing.
The Way I Used to Be – Amber Smith
The Way I Used to Be is a truly unforgettable book that I will forever be recommending. It is an extraordinary portrayal of trauma and I don’t think a book has made me as emotional as this one in a long time. I would highly recommend this book but please ensure you check the trigger warning before going in. TW: Rape, sexual assault, substance abuse.
New Book Releases I’m Excited For – February
One of my favourite things to do it be on the look out for new books! I love adding them to my TBR and pre-ordering ones I am particularly excited about. There are a lot of new books coming out in February and I wanted to share some of them in this post. So, here re the new book releases I'm excited for in February.
Promise Boys – Nick Brooks
When a book is said to be perfect for fans of Angie Thomas and Karen M. McManus, I am of course going to want to read that book. So, when saw this and read the synopsis of Promise Boys I immediately wanted to read. I’m so glad I got the opportunity to read this book because it is absolutely incredible! It is an unputdownable YA thriller that uses multiple POVs to grip you into a shocking story.
Lord of the Fly Fest – Goldy Moldavsky
Lord of the Fly Fest is a whacky and surreal take on the classic tale of Lord of the Flies. It is Lord of the Flies for the social media age and I had a lot of fun reading it. Goldy Moldavsky is definitely an author who I will be reading more of in the future.
My 2023 Goals!
Every year I set myself a few goals for my reading and blogging throughout the year. I like to make them easy to achieve but also fun to work towards. Then, I like to look back on them in the new year and see what I achieved. So, here are my blogging and reading goals for 2023.
