Can I finish all ofMy unfinished booksThis year??

Happy December everyone! As the end of this year I find myself looking at all the books I started but never finished. I have a bad habit of getting too excited about my next book and start reading it before I’ve finished the last one.

So I’ve decided to see how may books I can finish before the end of the year!

Do you think I can do it?

... Read moreAs December approaches, many book lovers find themselves in a familiar predicament: an ever-growing pile of unfinished books. This challenge is common, especially for those who eagerly start new books before completing the last one. If you're looking to finish all your unfinished books before the year wraps up, here are some helpful tips and insights to keep you motivated and on track. Firstly, prioritize your reading list. Assess the books you’ve started and decide which ones you are most excited about or feel compelled to finish. Creating a prioritized list can prevent the distraction of juggling multiple books at once and enhance your focus on completing them. Incorporating audiobooks can also be a game changer. For example, popular titles like "Witches of Pleasant Grove," read by Olivia Wright and Sean Masters, or "Twilight" narrated by Illyana Kadushin, offer a convenient way to make progress while commuting, exercising, or doing chores. Audiobooks are an excellent complement to traditional reading, helping you maximize your available time. Setting tangible goals, such as finishing a certain number of minutes or chapters daily, can build a steady reading habit. Additionally, tracking your progress can provide a sense of achievement and motivate you to keep going. Creating a cozy reading environment is another factor that can enhance your focus and enjoyment. Whether it’s a quiet nook, a comfy chair with a hot drink, or soft ambient lighting, making your reading space inviting encourages longer reading sessions. Don’t forget to engage with a reading community. Using hashtags like #readinggoals, #booklist, and #booktok on social media can connect you with fellow readers who share similar goals. This sense of community offers encouragement and often introduces new exciting books worth finishing. Lastly, be kind to yourself. The goal is to enjoy your reading journey without pressure. Finishing books is rewarding, but the pleasure of reading comes from the experience itself. Remember, even if you don’t finish every book this year, every page read is a step forward in your literary adventure. By adopting these strategies and utilizing resources like audiobooks of titles such as "Slewfoot: A Tale of Bewitchery" or "The Ginger Bread Bakery," you can turn your reading ambitions into accomplishments. Happy reading and may you finish your unfinished books with joy and satisfaction before the year ends!

I think one of the hardest things to accept is that not every connection is meant to stay forever…yet some of them still change us completely. Sometimes people enter our lives not to belong to us but to remind us we can still feel deeply. #beautifullyunfinished #feltbutunspoken #betwee

Unfinished Books
Like many, I have books and series I have started but not finished. It’s always been a goal of mine to finish these books/series to finally know what happens and to get that nagging little bug out of my head. A big reason these books get started then suddenly abandoned isn’t because they are bad.

Overthinking vs Unfinished
You’re not overthinking. Your nervous system is trying to finish a moment where you didn’t feel safe to speak. This shows up a lot for women who keep the peace and move on quickly. Full conversation coming soon. 🤍 #emotionalhealing #WomenHealth #overthinking #emotionalintelligen

Life has a way of breaking you in places you never expected… and sometimes things don’t fit back the same. I’m learning to stop reaching for what was, and instead, to start writing something new with what’s left. Maybe this is what healing really looks like — messy, different, but still beautiful.
