December has been a very short month for me, I simply didn't notice where it went. This month I received so many gifts that I already posted about two book hauls (here and here) and there's one more post coming about my Christmas book haul. It is fantastic to have birthday in December 🙂 I …
November was a weird month. I read a lot more than in October, mostly to escape what was happening in my family, for the first time in a while I actually consciously searched for an escape in books. As always reliable friends they helped me, even if my reading was less patient than usually and …
Welcome to my late, short and sweet October round-up. October has been a slow month for reading, actually I think the slowest this year. I only finished three books. Suddenly there were so many things eating up my time that the only time I had left for reading has been commute to work and I …
September is gone and all pretending that it is still summer has to end. As much as I love summer, part of me is ready for autumn, for the smell of fallen leaves, a bit shorter days, more excuses to stay in and read. What I am dreading is winter, with its completely dark days, …
August was a very slow month reading wise, I probably needed to slow down after the manic July and finishing #20booksofsummer a month early, so I took my time with the books I read.

When this post is published I hope to be enjoying my time on the beach on Baltic sea, so I am writing this in advance, therefore forgive me if it will not be the exact round-up of my June. So far it has been a good reading month, I joined 20 Books of Summer challenge and …
May is gone, no idea how that happened, because my mind still firmly believes we're somewhere in March. It got warmer and it got sunnier and I appreciate it, but my brain is clearly in denial, maybe because I really do feel I should start exercising again and cannot use short days as an excuse …
April didn't necessarily bring spring to London, but it certainly did to Madrid, where I spent a wonderful weekend. Reading-wise the month started so well that in the last week I decided to finally tackle It by Stephen King, at almost 1400 pages it is a bit intimidating book. Luckily I have it on my Kindle, …
Unlike January, February was an awful month reading wise and not so bad when it came to blogging. I managed to finish just 1 book, I just could not focus on anything with the amount of stress I had at work. My attention span dwindled to one page at a time and then my mind …
