How much did I read in October

My October was spent chaotically I guess. 19 books and I managed to hit Audio, Digital and Physical. The first bit of the month was spent recovering from a reading slump and then I got Wings of Starlight by Allison Saft on Libby.

I haven't ran the numbers on how much I saved this month on each app. I'm hopefully posting that later. I feel like it's going to be pretty even this time because I was waiting on Libby Holds.

November Goals:

👽 I want to read a Syfi. I currently have Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir on my Kindle. Hopefully I will be able to read it soon.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 I have two Outlander Books to finish. The first one I have 20 hours left and the second one is 39 hours. After I take my sister home I'm going to sit at my computer and listen to them while working on building my new house in the sims.

🎄I want to start finding good Christmas reads for next month. I think I want to do a Christmas Countdown but that means I need to start reading.

📚 I need to figure out what on my physical TBR can be packed up for the move and what I will actually read before we move. Right now I think Alchemized and Revolve have to stay out. Onyx Storm should be able to be packed and the rest of them are definetly able to be packed. Honestly I can't wait to have bookshelves.

Anyway what are your reading goals for November? How many books are you hoping to read before the year is up?

We know that during the holidays, we tend to eat a little more than usual, so starting the year with a detox is perfect. What I did was drink green juices, something I’ve been doing since 2021, along with 3 days of eating only fruits. Honestly, I loved it because I was able to get rid of all that b

Read to not waste your time in the gym like I did⬇️

One thing that I really wish that I learned earlier in my fitness journey is that you need a solid routine instead of just guessing every workout and doing something different every time.
