January 2025 TBR

Published on January 1, 2025December 30, 2024 by Celeste19 Comments

Happy New Year, everyone! I hope this year is better for everyone, myself included! I did ok with my December TBR and finished two books while DNF another. In January I have a lot going on health-wise, so if I get to everything on my January 2025 TBR, then I will be very impressed and surprised with myself. As I mentioned in my December wrap-up, I get my wisdom teeth out tomorrow. And later in the month I have other things going on. So, while my January 2025 TBR consists mostly of SFINCS Round 2 novellas, I really hope to get to a few other books, too. However, if I can’t, then I’ll have to give myself some grace.

December 2024 TBR

Published on December 2, 2024November 25, 2024 by Celeste4 Comments

It’s the home stretch of 2024, everyone! And with it brings a lot of ARCs that I have yet to read. Oops! I did pretty well with my November 2024 TBR, so I hope I can repeat that with my December 2024 TBR. While I have a couple of priority reads, I think for this month I want to pick more from my pile of physical books. I’m a little behind on ARCs, but I also just want to take it a little easy during the holiday season.
