Before December started, I thought I was more or less settled with my blogging plans for 2024. I’ve been pretty happy off Instagram and I was considering how I’m going to narrow down my Internet presence for a saner year. And of course I had aaaaalllll the year end blogging plans. But then December rolled… Read More My New Year Resolution is to Stop Blogging
Hello friends!! I actually had a really great reading month in November but that has come at the expense of pretty much everything else – you’ll see that my reading log only has the book and hasn’t been “beautified” with stickers yet. But no worries, it’s time to do a month in review. November in… Read More November in Review + December’s Reading & Tea Plans
Hello friends! It’s been a while since we had a month-in-review post, since I was overseas at the start of October and well… I’ve actually been overseas too. So this is late but thankfully not so late that I lose all momentum to write this. October in Books After reading only nine books in September… Read More Month in Review: October 2023
I watched the latest of the Poirot movies starring Kenneth Branagh and I have to say, this was my favourite one! While I enjoyed Murder on the Orient Express, I thought it had a bit too much backstory that was not really canon (or was that the second movie?). Death on the Nile, on the… Read More A Haunting in Venice – The Best Adaptation is No Adaptation
Hello friends! August was a short month for me – I had something on pretty much every Saturday so all the days felt like it was compressed together.

Look at me writing and posting this on the first of the month! I think that’s a mini-achievement in and of itself, given how I can procrastinate on non-work-related matters. I don’t really have much of a preamble this month so let’s dive into the bookish side of things. July in Books July turned out… Read More July in Review
I haven’t written a mid-year podcast update in a while (I completely skipped it for 2022, if I remember correctly) but reading the Six Stories series has reminded me that it’s time to do a mid-Year podcast update so that I won’t have too much to write and feel overwhelmed at the end of the… Read More (Somewhat a) Mid-Year Podcast Update – Short Podcast Series I’ve finished so far in 2023
Hello friends! I’d like to check if anyone else’s June also passed by in a flash! Because that is what happened to me. Despite plans for a more productive blogging month in June, work ended up being so busy that the only things I managed to write were my June rereading posts. And I was… Read More June in Review
Hi friends, we’re now in June so it’s time for me to look back on the previous month! May felt like a really short month to me, which I think means there’s a lot to look back on. What I Read in May May was a comparatively slow reading month, since I only finished twelve… Read More May in Review
Welcome back to another monthly round-up! I’m finding that I’m excited to write these posts because it’s nice to look back and take stock of the month. By the way, as I was going through the published posts, I realised that there are 1670 of them on the blog! That’s pretty insane but also makes… Read More April in Review
