Well, October certainly wasn’t my month for reading! 😂
Between life being busy, responsibilities piling up, and finding myself in a bit of a reading slump, I just couldn’t seem to lose myself in a book the way I normally do.
You know that feeling when you want to read, but every time you pick up a book, you just can’t get into it? That was me for most of October. And for someone who absolutely loves getting lost in fictional worlds, it’s frustrating!
📖 October Reads: Just TWO!
🌙 Lady of Darkness — ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5)
🖤 Lady of Shadows — ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5)
Both books earned a solid four stars, so it wasn’t that I wasn’t enjoying what I read. I just couldn’t find my usual reading groove.
But here’s the thing I’m reminding myself: Reading isn’t a competition. It’s an escape, an adventure, and something we do because we love it. Some months we devour ten books, and other months we’re lucky to finish two. And that’s perfectly okay!
I’m heading into November hoping to shake off this slump, find a book that completely consumes me, and rediscover that just one more chapter feeling. 📚❤️
