Reflecting on January 2021 | Personal Reflection

Asalamualaikum/hello everyone and welcome back to my blog 🙂 Today’s post is a new kind of post I want to try out and is something a little more personal than I’m normally used to sharing on here – so let me know what you think about the change!

Usually on this blog, at the end of the month I have tended to do “monthly reading wrap-ups” but even though I have been reading this month, I haven’t managed to read a whole book. That being said, I thought it would be fun if I could personally share how I found this month as the first month in 2021… highlights, the good, the bad, general struggles, etc! I thought it would be interesting to reflect back on this month especially considering (being in the UK) it was the start of our third lockdown and so many things happened! I’m especially interested to also see your guys’ thoughts on this month as well and the different things I discuss 🙂

Ultimate Summer Reading Wrap-Up

*yesterday’s post I asked what book I had read that made me want to read A Tale of Two Cities – and Kaya’s answer was correct – A Clockwork Princess 🎉*

I read 26 books this summer! I’m so proud of myself considering I had to balance summer work and family-time and also, of course, lounging around on the sofa doing nothing and shamelessly bingeing on Netflix (good times!).

I don’t have time to go through all of the books I read this summer –
