Do you guys ever read multiple books at the same time or mainly read one at a time? Sometimes I have this urge I want to start another series or standalone book in tandem with another series I already started to read. But knowing myself I feel like I would mix the two details up when I read? It’s hard for me to jump around from one plot and then a whole new plot/world/char.

I love the idea of posting thoughts and theories while I read. But I’ve found that it’s a bit distracting to my reading to go on my phone to make a post. The second I pick up my phone I remember that there are 100 other things I “need” to do. Mainly Hayday related things🙃 To solve this, I have started keeping a stack of post-it’s next to me, and I just write down my thoughts on those, and post them here when I’ve finished reading.

I personally can’t, despite my best efforts haha 😅. I used to worry about and honestly still do sometimes, the lack of my book memory. Thinking that maybe I should slow down, read less. I really don’t want to though because I prefer reading over watching tv shows or movies. If you’re like me, I came across this quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson today and I hope you can take solace in it like I have.. “I cannot remember the books I've read any more than the meals I have eaten; even so, they have made me.”

Every year, I set a reading goal, and I usually push myself to read more. However, in the past couple of months, I started thinking that maybe I actually want to read less. I still want to achieve my reading goals, but I have surpassed them quite a bit. So, I'm reading a lot, which isn't a bad thing, but I think that it's taking away my appreciation for some of the books I read, especially the ones I enjoy. I may have taken the time to write a review, but then I jumped right to the next one and that's that. So, this is the year to appreciate the good reads more. :)
