While October has been a hot mess of fun and excitement, November is probably going to be a lot more quiet, cold and normal. For me, this hopefully means back to reading, reviewing and blogging. Finally! Those are the things I love doing the most and for which I had little to no time at all, the past few months (okay, more like the past half year). Especially reviewing is something I haven’t done in ages and I’m itching now to start doing that again.
A dear friend mockingly called me the ‘queen of guest reviews’ and she’s probably right, I definitely need to write some reviews myself again. This doesn’t mean there’s no room for guest reviews anymore of course. Au contraire! I continue posting Sharon’s and Lis’s reviews with the greatest pleasure and gratitude, although I think it isn’t fair nor accurate to call them ‘guest reviews’ any longer. *g*
Anyway, I hope to read and review a lot of books the coming months and here’s a few of the November releases I definitely look forward to.
