PopSugar Reading Challenge Progress

For the past few years, I have casually taken part in the PopSugar Reading Challenge. By casually, I mean that I did not plan out ahead of time what I would read for each prompt, but after I finish a book, I look through the prompts and see if the book could fulfill one of them. I keep track of them on my reading spreadsheet, but I have never shared my progress anywhere. I thought this year it would be fun to take a look at the prompts I have filled and share which books I used to fill them.

Prime (and Other) Purchases in January 2023

This month I’m once again linking up with Tanya to share what I’ve been purchasing via Amazon and elsewhere. I usually don’t buy too much in January, but I ended up doing a bit more than normal this month! These links are affiliate links, which means that if you click them and make a purchase, I may receive a small incentive.

What I Read in January 2023 Part 2

Today’s post covers the second half of the books I read in January 2023. Because of a few books I did not finish, I started out with less books read at the beginning of the month, which I shared here. I ended up reading a lot of books I loved, which I shared here. In the end, I read a normal amount this month for me! (If you’re new here, yes, I know I read a lot). The Amazon links to the books I’ve read are affiliate links and if you use them and make a purchase, I may receive a small commission. If you’ve read any of these books or are interested in them, I’d love to hear about it in the comments!

Florida Recap Part 5 – The Rest of the Trip

When I left off, we had completed our time in Key West and headed back to Fort Lauderdale, where we were supposed to spend the night and leave the next day. Instead, our trip was extended due to Southwest, and we had four additional days to stay in Florida. There are worse places to be stuck, and we were lucky because we have family there to stay with! But first, as planned, we headed to dinner with Dave’s parents and his sister had arrived with her husband and two of her kids, so we were excited to see everyone!
