Books, Reading, and everything in between
Hello everyone! Long time, no talk. I know it's been a while since we've chatted, but my mental health has been struggling severely. Happiness feels more like a concept than a reality for me these days and reading...well, let's just say it's been put on the back burner. I didn't think I would read anything, [...]
Happy December, folks! I feel like December crept up on us because one minute it was Thanksgiving and the next minute it's all about the holidays. Then again, I guess every year is like that. I think the only difference is that the weekend after Thanksgiving this year was December 1st. While there were a [...]
After a night of Halloween candy and watching scary movies, it's finally the end of October. And that means another wrap up of my reading month. I read nine books this month. I feel like I need to re-name my wrap ups to "books Simone spent a month yammering about because they're so good." Because [...]
September always feels like a transition month. It's the end of summer, but the beginning of fall. It's the end of summer vacation and the start of the new school year. I always consider September as the beginning of a new year because of my old school days. It makes me excited and also makes [...]
I felt like I spent the last few days of August trying to fit in as many books as I can. It didn't work, of course, because whenever I force reading I get burnt out faster. But August was good to me and I read a lot this month. I end August with a total [...]
I can't believe it's already the end of July. I mean, can you? This month felt like it flew by and almost every weekend I had plans with friends either in town or visiting from New York. I loved spending my days with friends and talking about everything including books. But it also means my [...]
Well, June, you've bested me. I wanted to spend this month reading books for myself, for Pride, and just getting back to what matters. Alas, I'm at a loss because this month beat me down with tons of work, catching up, and general June Gloom. But the sun is shining and I think summer is [...]
Happy End of May! What a weird month it's been. I don't know about you, but it's definitely been a weird one for me. I thought we would get a lot of reading done, but that's a bust. I thought we would get a lot of writing done, but that feels busted too. It's not [...]
https://youtu.be/y83x7MgzWOA Happy Friday, everyone! I know I posted this song last week, but now there's a video and it's seriously cute. I suggest you take a gander as Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber have some fun in front of a green screen. I feel like there's a trend of dudes creating music in honor of [...]
Happy Weekend, everyone! I know this is coming a little late in the day than I'm normally posting, but it's been a long Friday with a lot of work on my plate. How's your week been? I've got a very quick jam of the week that's been on repeat for a little bit now. Can [...]
