Let’s talk about Reading Goals. Note: This post will be cross-posted to both my personal blog (tabathashipleybooks.com) and our reading channel (alltherightreads.com). Follow us on both platforms so you never miss anything! I was always a voracious reader, even as a kid. But I didn't realize how much I read until I started tracking my... Continue Reading →
Good morning, friends and followers. I’m known for updating all of you on my goals and my progress at the end of every month. I have snazzy little journals where I keep track of everything and I pop in here once a month to show those off and drop updates. The point of these posts... Continue Reading →
Happy September, everyone! September is supposed to signal the start of autumn here in the US. Of course, that isn’t typically true for us here in the desert southwest. We have to wait at least another month for anything even approaching normal temperatures. Actually, this has been a record breaking summer for us here in... Continue Reading →

Of course, they’re also regularly reporting heat advisories and reminding people to quit... Continue Reading →

(For original: click HERE). As of today, I officially have 140 books on my TBR. That’s after reading... Continue Reading →

I know I say this practically every month, but I cannot BELIEVE we’re already in November. Actually, since it’s taken me forever to get a minute to sit down and do this reflection, we’re almost two weeks into November already. It’s time to take a look at what I got done in October. If you’ve... Continue Reading →
