February Wrap-Up & March TBR

I can’t believe we’re already 2 months into 2021! February was another slightly slow month for me but I’m getting back up on my feet when it comes to reading and I couldn’t be more excited for what March has in store for me. March is going to be super busy too!

Let’s get into what I read ~

What I Read In February

I did it! Although I only read 3 books again this month, I reached my goal of finishing the All Souls trilogy – which are thick books! So I’m really proud of myself for that, especially since I’m still in a bit of a slump. I really enjoyed them as well and I’m super motivated to keep reading new things in March.

Total Books: 3

Total Pages: 1733

Shadow of Night by Deborah Harkness
★★★☆☆ (3/5) | SERIES REVIEW

Book of Life by Deborah Harkness
★★★★☆ (4/5) | SERIES REVIEW

Spinning Silver by Naomi Novak
★★★★☆ (4/5) | MINI-REVIEW TO COME
I read most of this book on audio and really enjoyed listening to it while I drove to work and back. I read the last 50 pages or so with my physical copy and I’ll definitely be sharing more of my thoughts with you all soon 🙂

Blogging Highlights

Although the beginning of Feb was super quiet and I was still in a creative slump, I think I did a pretty good comeback by the end of it and I wrote some posts I’m really proud of (especially the following 2):

Sustainable Reading Tips (that aren’t just ‘read more e-books’)

What I Watched In February

Although I planned to watch Always & Forever (the last book to movie adaptation for the To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before series), I never got around to it! Instead, whenever I wasn’t trying to read – I started watching The Crown on Netflix again. I had watched the first season years ago but had totally forgotten everything so I’ve started from the beginning so I can continue the other seasons. Let me know if you’ve watched this before and who is your favourite character!

March TBR

Now that I feel I’m getting back into the hang of reading, I have so many plans – which are most importantly, getting to reading so many books I’ve been wanting to pick up but couldn’t because I wanted to commit to reading one book at a time (and the All Souls Trilogy was taking forever). These are some new releases I really want to get to:

The Mask Falling by Samantha Shannon
I pre-ordered this and got it early in the mail and I NEED to read this!

A Court of Silver & Flames by Sarah J Maas
This is my current read, actually, and I never thought I’d pick it up in a million years but after some convincing by readers on Instagram, I’m reading it and I’ll be bringing you guys a ‘spoiler-opinional’ reading blog for it too 🙂

New Animal by Ella Baxter
This is a book I received unsolicited by Allen & Unwin (thank you!). To be honest…I absolutely hate this cover but I’m willing to give it a go and see how it is. It is a pretty short book as well so I might do a 24hr readathon for myself and see if I can finish it!

The Midnight Library by Matt Haig
I don’t know what it is about this book but I’ve seen so many people on Instagram giving it 5 stars and I don’t know much about it! I picked it up at my local bookstore this week (my first physical book buy of 2021!) and I’m super intrigued. It’s supposed to be quite thought-provoking and I LOVE books that have me contemplating philosophical concepts, life and just thinking about them a lot after finishing them so I hope this lives up to the hype! It’s also another short book I’m really looking forward to.

Starsight by Brandon Sanderson
I read Skyward, the first book in this series, last year and freaking loved it. It’s now one of my all time favourite books and it’s crazy that I still haven’t read the sequel yet! I can’t wait to finally get into this book and see my favourite characters again.

This TBR is a little ambitious especially because I have a LOT of things going on in my personal life, most importantly; I’m moving house again soon! BUT, I’m determined to keep reading 🙂

What have you got planned for March? Any books I might know?
