UPDATE - What we've been up to lately


Hello everyone! We haven't posted in a while and we apologize about that! Life got super busy this summer and even more with school being back. We thought we would make a blog post an share what we have been up too these last few months and share some exciting news as well!


An Introvert Reads: I only had three weeks between classes this summer so I visited my family in Ontario for about one week. Afterward, it was back to studying. I did go to a fun concert in August which was a nice weekend getaway to Saskatoon! I did manage to break my reading goal this week with 40 books read so far this year! Considering I have zero time to read I would say this is a win!

I'm still working on a work/study/life balance at the moment as studying as really taken its toll on me. I feel so run down, I've missed so much work this month. I don't want to give up but I really need to take care of myself in the meantime. One thing to help me with this is that I have decided to not request any more ARCs and read what I want to read when I want to read. Reviewing ARCs is so much fun! However, I can't add stressful deadlines into my current situation, it's just too much. I have also been distant on my social media, partly because, as I've mentioned, sometimes gotta give. Thanks for sticking with me! <3 


Mommy Reads : This summer, I enjoyed time with my little family. We went camping near Lake Superior for about 2 weeks and a half and then we enjoyed the sunshine at home. I didn't get as much reading time as I'd hope, but I still managed to read a lot of books. The majority of my reviews have been posted and sent to the publishers but I'm still behind on a few. Hopefully, I will get some time to sit down and write them so I can share them with all of you. 



The end of my Maternity Leave in late August brought some questions about my future and career and after sleeping on it for a while, I have decided to go back to school! My program is all done online but the platform is very interesting and motivating. I'm learning so much! I am currently about halfway through and my goal is to take my final exam before Christmas. This is as much as I can say for now but more details will follow in the next few months as things move along. Stay tuned!
