You might have noticed that I am not one, not two, but three wrap-ups behind. I miss blogging and I've been so swamped with school and other life stuff that catching up on monthly wrap-ups feels more overwhelming than it should, so to get these done so I can move on to other blog posts, we're going to do these wrap-ups "speed round" style.

How is your year going so far? Leave a comment!
I'm impressed with how much reading you've done. I know a lot is for school, but I see some pleasure books in there too. I like the three-word descriptions too.
ReplyDeleteCute pictures of the dogs! And I know how tricky it can be to get them to cooperate.
@Dr. Mark
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm doing a lot less pleasure reading these days lol, but I still try to fit some in. It's handy to have ebooks on my Kindle app so I can read a few pages here and there throughout the day.
Soooo tricky. xD
My favorites:
ReplyDeleteHistorical, groundbreaking, lesbians
Smart, psychological, gay
"The Boys in the Band, but lesbians"
BAHAHAHAHAHA! It's like a progressive story!
And, of course, great pictures of the girls. <3
Dang, you've read a ton!
@Boquinha
ReplyDeleteListen, I've just consumed a lot of gay media these past few months. xD
I'm going to have lots more pictures to share for April! <3
Ha ha, yes I have. At this rate I'll complete my Goodreads reading goal by June!
Sorry I missed this - I took two months off blogging AND I quit Twitter! I really want to watch Moxie, so I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it. Excited to see what the belated announcement is!
ReplyDelete@Ivy
ReplyDeleteNo worries, I accidentally did too LOL. School, writing projects, and rehearsals really cut into my usual blogging time! Yes, let me know what you think of "Moxie!"
