Last year, I made four goals for the year to hold myself accountable when it came to both reading and blogging. It honestly helped a lot with committing to this blog and writing more, so here are my two reading goals and two blogging goals for 2020! Reading Goals:
-
My goals this year were pretty simple, I had two for blogging and two for reading. It was a good year, until Fall semester started. That’s when things got super stressful. But enough excuses, let’s see how I did. Reading Goals: Read 25 Books – 10 being physical copies

Just because I haven’t been posting doesn’t mean I haven’t been watching TV shows and movies, so just like my English major post, I’ll be catching…

Hey Lovebugs, I know it’s been a while since my last post, but I certainly haven’t forgotten about you. If you haven’t heard it before, you’re going to hear it now. I’ve added English as my second major, which is honestly super fitting for me but… also super stressful. So you may have noticed I…

We hit double digits! That also means that today will mark fifty books that have been put to the test. Let’s see how they fair. This week, we’re tackling the rest of the classics that I hadn’t gotten to. In all honesty, I haven’t read that many classics. Of the ones I have read, my…
