February Plans (2023)

February is another mix of genres - a few romances, a couple fantasies and some non-fiction. Really not sure how much I'll be able to read as I've a few things on this month, so we'll just need to wait and see.

Book Review: A Lesson in Vengeance, Victoria Lee

Title: A Lesson in Vengeance Author: Victoria Lee Published: 22nd February 2022, Titan Books Pages: 400 Source: Netgalley Format: eARC Rating: 3/5 Felicity Morrow is back at Dalloway School. Perched in the Catskill mountains, the centuries-old, ivy-covered campus was home until the tragic death of her girlfriend. Now, after a year away, she's returned to graduate. She even has her old room in Godwin House, the exclusive dormitory rumoured to be haunted by the spirits of five Dalloway students - girls some say were witches. The Dalloway Five all died mysteriously, one after another, right on Godwin grounds. Witchcraft is woven into Dalloway's history. The School doesn't talk about it, but the students do. In secret rooms and shadowy corners, girls convene. And before her girlfriend died, Felicity was drawn to the dark. She's determined to leave that behind her now; all Felicity wants is to focus on her senior thesis and graduate. But it's hard when Dalloway...

                                                 Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by  That Artsy Reader Girl . This week's topic is my most anticipated releases of 2023. It's a very short list this week as I'm actively trying not to pay attention to new releases in the hope that I can get my TBR down, and because of this, I'm listing for the whole year rather than the first half.

Did I Read Them? (2022)

This is a follow-up to last year's " I Have Until the End of 2022 to Read These Books ". This was both a success and a bit of a failure...

I Have Until the End of 2023 to Read These Books...

So, I did this last year with not too much success - I'll be posting an update on that tomorrow. But I thought I was just as well to try again this year as it has helped clear the shelves a bit. So, here are the books I am getting rid of if I don't read them by 31st December 2023...

2022 Reading Wrap Up

I had such an excellent reading year in 2022! I wasn't sure about my reading towards the second half, but the first few months of 2022 I was reading non-stop. I use Book Roast's CAWPILE spreadsheet to track my reading so all graphs below are pulled from there.

2023 Reading Goals

So it's that time of year when I start thinking about my goals and once again I don't want to put too much pressure on myself. Particularly as I spent a good portion of last year not being in the right headspace to read or blog. These are goals that I'm going to treat more as a nice to do rather than I must complete them...
