📚 Book 17 of 2024 - Finished: A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas (⭐4/5)

Finished last night. Book 3 of the ACOTAR series and I think this is my favorite book of the series so far.

Highlighted quote:

I would have waited five hundred more years for you. A thousand years. And if this was all the time we were allowed to have … The wait was worth it.

Days 27 and 28 of WeblogPoMo2024

Almost at the finish line…

  • CampSnap Camera: my favorite no frills, screen free digital camera that encourages me to stay in the moment.
  • The Sound of my Voice: my thoughts on Micro.blog’s new audio narration feature. Contemplating whether or not to use it.

Days 26 of WeblogPoMo2024

A little less than a week left of this month’s challenge and still (kind of) going strong. Excited to change things up a bit in June for the JUnited: A Blog Love Letter challenge. Looking forward to discovering new blogs that people in the community also enjoy. Stay tuned!

Days 24 and 25 of WeblogPoMo2024

  • Week Notes 006 - this week was a heavy week so this is a short one.
  • Overthinking my superpower - in my need to balance my heavy posts the past few days, I needed to write something lighthearted to take my mind off things. What would your superpower be?

Days 22 and 23 of WeblogPoMo2024

Just catching up:

📚 Book 16 of 2024 - Finished: The Book of Lost Names by Kristin Harmel (⭐5/5)

Thoughts: This was a really hard book to put down. If you’re into historical fiction around WWII about family, sacrifice, betrayal and lost love, then this could be a great read for you.

Once you’ve fallen in love with books, their presence can make you feel at home anywhere, even in places where you shouldn’t belong.

Day 20 of WeblogPoMo2024

I hit my 365 days streak of Duolingo today! I absolutely failed learning Chinese but I think I’m doing pretty well increasing my Spanish fluency. Started off around 30% fluency and I’d like to think I’m at 45% when it comes to reading Spanish now. It’s something, at least!
