what a month. I am so thankful August is over. Peace out, yo. Nothing bad happened, it was just stressful from lack of work and the work I did have .. well, payment got sent to the wrong address so life has been tiiight. Sigh.
The joys of being self employed, right?
Gave me lots of time to read, so lets get to it!
It took a while for me to get a grip on my shelves and what I was going to read this month so a lot of kindle reading happened
- Deliverer (amazing! 10/10 recommend)
- Worth Billions
- Hers to take
- Black
- Cruz
- Lost in me
- Taken
- Forbidden sister
- A girl like that (ARC for "We Can(ada) Read 2018")
- Kincaid
- Retribution of Mara Dyer
- Roxy's Story
- to all the boys I've loved before
- Hush Hush
- Cresendo
- Silence
which puts me at 127/200 ! whohoo. Slow but steady. I'm pretty sure I'll make my goal since my fall schedule is looking empty ... *tumbleweed flies by*
I'm feeling ambitious with this one. I really want to start reading more before bed but lately I've been so tired ... so many doggy walks lately since i can't just toss him out into a backyard to do his thang. which is fine, he's a lot calmer these days haha
- the colour purple
- unwanted child
- lost boy (preptober prep)
- finale
- 12 years a slave (which i have started and its so dry! going to be difficult)
- raven king
- the wedding date
- internet famous
- obsidio
- elanor and park
- leia
Plus I have 3 scheduled for Summer's eve reads and whatever catches my interest off my kindle. like always ;) and 2 ARCs from Netgalley to get to. so it should be a good month, but I am hopeful work picks up
Another crazy month. At least the move is over with ... all settled in nicely. Everything is unpacked that needs to be, and I get a new bed frame next week so the bedroom can be complete (and my back pain can hopefully go away) which should also stop the dog from thinking it's a bed for him - I don't mind cuddling with him, but he sheds so much that I have to change sheets more often and doing laundry in an apartment is annoying :p
Work has been SO SLOW. and this last week of August I think I did more work than I did the rest of the month combined. So I'm exhausted and stressed out. The doggy got mad at me because I wasn't home much so he went to visit the ex for a few days to have a playdate with the other pups and at least get proper walks/feeding times. Man, I miss him. The apartment is so lonely now right ... I get him back on the weekend when things calm down and I cannot wait!
Other than that, everything else is the same. My life is pretty boring haha I'm excited for Fall because work will pick up and hopefully this humidity goes away (not that i mind the heat, especially in canada because VERY SOON it's going to be all covered in white nonsense that i detest. sigh.)
October/November means it's NaNo season again! Yay! I'm still working on edits from my WIP from last year (this summer got away from me but I have a writing area set up on my dining room table which is helpful) but I feel a bit stuck with it so changing direction to my Captain Hook retelling is going to be fun. I got asked the other day if I wanted to be a writer ... which I thought was a weird question. I am a writer. Been writing since I was 12. I just don't care about being published. They didn't know how to take that lol
My mom got us tickets to go see a local production of Peter Pan in Mississauga in October so whoohoo! She knows me so well haha.
I guess that's it for this month! As always, follow me on twitter and insta to keep up with the puppy and the books @ inafieldofbooks
