This year is just flying by! I’m going off on a European adventure in less than three weeks! This past month, I haven’t had a job, so it was easier to read a little more. I also played a lot of Stardew Valley, though. I was able to listen to some audiobooks while playing, since […]

What I Read – May 2018
Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng This was the book I chose for our book club to read in May, and I really loved it. It was a great book for a book club because there was a lot to discuss, a lot of mystery that left me guessing, and it was written incredibly well. […]
What I Read in April 2018
April was a pretty good month – I celebrated my birthday and our wedding anniversary and I did a fair amount of reading. I have one month left with my job, and then I’m free to read all day instead of teach! I’m excited for that, but for now I’m just trying to keep up […]
What I Read in March 2018
Wow, it’s already April! My birthday month! I didn’t read as much as I wanted to this past month, but a ton of great Netflix shows have been keeping me busy. My March reading round-up is a mixed bag. I read a graphic novel, a novel translated from its original French, a collection of personal […]
Learning German – Deutsch lernen
Hallo, Leute! In my post at the beginning of the year, I wrote about my plans for a trip to Europe this year. I’ve been planning and getting really excited about it for a while now. I have guidebooks, packing lists, and I’ve watched a ton of travel videos. It can’t come soon enough! Ever […]
What I Read in February 2018
This month, I was busy doing a lot, traveling, working, seeing friends and family, etc. It was the month of Lunar New Year and the Olympics. Also, I started a few books that I just didn’t enjoy, so I ended up only finishing two books in total. I’m still on track with my goal, but […]
What I Read in January 2018
This year, I had the idea to post each month about what I read and what I thought about each book. It’s a little easier to manage than full-on book reviews, so I’ll try it out and see how it goes! In January, I read six books! I’m ahead of schedule for my 50 books […]
Reading Goals 2018
I feel good about 2018. I don’t have any more weddings to plan, I have a big trip to Europe coming up this year, I’m halfway through my year-long part-time job contract, and Junkyu and I are coming up on our second wedding anniversary. Also, I’m trying to kick my habit of making excuses not […]
Book Hangovers are Real
Last night I finally finished the fourth and final book in The Raven Cycle series – The Raven Boys, The Dream Thieves, Blue Lily Lily Blue, and The Raven King. The first book I had on my kindle for a long time, and I was always hesitant to start it. When I finally did start […]
Beautiful Books I Brought Back
When I was in America for our second wedding a few weeks ago, I went to my favorite bookstore near my house (even though it’s about 30-40 minutes away by car because we live in the middle of nowhere) – Barnes and Noble! If we had a local independent bookstore, I’d go there, but alas, […]
