Another month has gone by, and we are a month away from the end of the year. :o Again, I have to ask: where had the time go?

• I GOT MY NETGALLEY RATIO TO 100%!!!! (I was jumping in joy when that happened because that was unexpected.) When I was trying to get it up, I mistakenly read Thousand Words instead of Torn Away (the ARC I requested) because I didn’t check which book it was, so that set me back a bit.

• Earlier in the month, I became productive-Cee, where I churned out three reviews in one sitting. Very unlike me, but boy, it was so rewarding to get it done.

• I RECEIVED A PHYSICAL COPY OF WE ARE PIRATES AKA THE BOOK I WAS DYING TO GET BECAUSE OMFG PIRATES!

• My blog hit major milestones. I reached over 500 followers!! HOOORAY!

• I did not win NaNoWriMo. *cries* I just got sidetracked by other writing that I never went back to my Spy/Thieves project. I am so disappointed in myself.

• Remember my top secret project I talked about months ago? Well, it’s almost ready. I’m just prepping posts, and I can’t wait to talk about it. I’m aiming for a January debut. ;D

ON THE BLOG

• I reviewed:
  • A Thousand Pieces of You by Claudia Gray. I didn’t really liked it. It had a lot of issues that made me cringe a lot.
  • Thousand Words by Jennifer Brown. Very thought-provoking, but missing that emotional connection.
  • Torn Away by Jennifer Brown. I was missing that connection with the main character.
  • Roomies by Sara Zarr & Tara Altebrando. I had to DNF this book. I felt too close to it to enjoy it.

• I talked about:
  • whether reading challenges are really good for my health. Not so much with the way I’m dealing with it.
  • the cover changes in Vanishing Girls by Lauren Oliver. I definitely prefer the new cover. No more white space!
  • the different book covers with birds on it. Designers like using birds a lot.
  • the ARCs that are on the verge of DNF. I’m considering DNFing them all because I’m not feeling them at all.

• I wrote letters to:
  • Mosquitoland and David Arnold. ROAD TRIP!

• I created a holiday gift guide that any typography lover will love. You will love it too! So much pretty!

• I gave thanks to all the authors I adore. They are a wonderful group of people I have the pleasure of reading.

• I screamed in joy that A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket will be a Netflix series. SO EXCITED!

• I participated in the Getting to Know You Blog Hop, where I was giving away More Than This by Patrick Ness and asked people to play two truths and a lie with me.

PLANS FOR DECEMBER 

• Prepping for the secret project.
• Preparing for blogoversary.
• End of the year posts + recaps.
