Now that we are quarter of the way through the year I thought I would do a reading challenge check in! I have been steady if not prolific in my reading so far this year, but the books that I have been reading have almost all been excellent. I have been trying to be more deliberate with my choices in line with the challenges I set myself. So, here are some of my favourite books so far in 2021.
It’s January Favourite Finds time for 2021! This month is a mix of food, drinks, reading and exercising, what I see as a good balance really! I spent a bit of the month on holidays, a bit in quarantine (not my favourite part!) and the rest back at work. I still managed to get out and about a little – including a few trips to the MCG which was nice return to somewhat normality! I’d love to hear about your January Favourite Finds too!
One of the things I want to take with me from 2020 is how much reading I did. Getting back in to the regular habit of reading before bed every night was such a positive for me, so I’m making a commitment to keeping it up in 2021 too. However, I also want to go further than that and focus on making sure I am reading a diverse range of stories from a broader range of authors. So, here are some of the reading challenges I am setting myself for 2021!
It’s October Favourite Finds time! It was another month at home here in Melbourne, but thankfully with a few more freedoms along the way. It was a month of reading and eating at my place, which is very well reflected in my October favourite finds! I’d love to hear about yours too!
It’s no secret that things haven’t been all that easy here in Melbourne for a number of months now. Whilst I have definitely had some rough patches along the way, over the last little while I have been trying to focus on some of the things I am seeing as silver linings of lockdown. Most of them are very small, but each of them has been helpful to keeping my spirits up. I’d love to hear about any of your silver linings of lockdown too!
