First Law Along #5: The Heroes
With this second phase of the FirstLawAlong I feel less urgency to read on, since the next books are only marginally interlinked and can mainly be read as standalone books, albeit in the same world as the original trilogy with cameos from characters we’ve met before. It was a bit difficult to motivate myself to read this second standalone novel…

Reading journal September 2023
For my September reading journal I drew inspiration from different sources. It started with a sheet of stickers that I bought a while ago from 24papershop, when I was shopping for a new journal for next year’s reading journal. I already liked the stickers when I chose them from my computer screen, but in real life I was twice as…

Read in October 2023
October was Spookoplathon month and I managed to read all the books I had intended to read, with a couple of extra thrown in the mix. In total I read 10 books, good for 3691 pages. The average October book comes to 369 pages/book. It was a bit of an average month, with mostly good books, but also a few…

Read in September 2023
September was a month without readathons, but I still had a pretty focused TBR. I wanted to finish a few outstanding series, continue reading in another series, participate in a book club and make progress with my Owlcrate project. And with this my reading month was quickly booked! In September I read a total of 8 books, good for 2707…

Reading journal August 2023
August was the month of the magical readathon and for my reading journal I was inspired by a spread I made in April for the Alchemy quest. Now, the inspiration didn’t really go much further than wanting to use the same purple paper, since I had decided that I wanted to work with purple in August. Because of the paper…

Read in August 2023
August was the month of the Autumn Equinox of the magical readathon, an event that usually causes me to read a lot of books. This time, due to circumstances, I was less involved than in other years, but still managed to pass my required exams, plus extra! In August I also read significantly smaller books, in between gigantic ones. I…

Reading journal July 2023
A while ago I bought some sticker sheets with a constellation theme. I really liked the colours and the figures were cute, so I wanted to use it in a reading journal theme. And in July I did just that! The heavenly theme really came together when I found this beautiful picture on Pinterest. Unfortunately it doesn’t say who made…

Read in July 2023
July also remained a bit of a lukewarm reading month. On the one hand, I really had the desire to dive into a book, but on the other hand, it was very difficult for me to get into any of the books I selected. In the end, I still finished 9 books in July, amounting to 3213 pages. The average…

Reading journal June 2023
For my June reading journal theme, I opted for a softer, more romantic style, again inspired by some images from Pinterest. Or no, actually, the idea mainly came about while I was browsing for some fonts I could imitate by hand. This was when I came across one incorporating flowers. From this idea, the whole layout came together, using the…
