Hey everyone, welcome back to my blog! Today I’m doing a January wrap up and it’s gonna be a long one so grab a drink and sit down while I go through my crazy first month of 2020!

For January, since I had the month off from school, I decided to give myself a month-long challenge, to watch a movie every day, because why not? I wanted to see how easily I could get bored of a particular genre/actor and if I would discover any new favourites along the way!

Hey guys, welcome back to my blog! Today I’m coming at you with a new series here on my blog, called “Catching Up”. This is going to be a year-long series all about catching up on the books on my shelves (both physical & Goodreads) that I feel like I’ve missed out on, but am making a point of reading now! These are all books I feel are genre staples that I’ve missed out on, as well as books I really feel like I should have read by now but need some motivation to actually pick up!
