I ended up not reading as much as I had originally planned in February, but I think it’s okay to have months where you just take it a little easy with your reading. If I had tried forcing myself to speed through as many books as I could, I would no doubt send myself into a reading slump (it never fails). Luckily, I’ve been taking time with my books and mixing them up some with Netflix. I also binged the entire K-drama Reply 1997 and am now obsessed. So all in all, I’d call it a pretty successful month!

How did your reading month of February go? Were you able to read all of the books on your TBR? Did you read any new favorites? Did you do anything fun or interesting? What book did you like the least?
I also didn’t read as much as I wanted in February, but you’re right — forcing yourself always ends in a book slump. Looks like you still had some great books to read, though! I’m super excited to read The Belles soon.

Thank you! And yeah, it happens to me every single time that I try and force myself to rush through tons of books in a month. I really hope you enjoy The Belles! It was a fun read!

Looks like you had a good reading month with all the 4 or 5 star ratings 🙂 It’s definitely okay to have months were you read a bit less and maybe watch a few more shows 🙂 I really loved a lot of books I read in February and had only two 3 star ratings, one of them sadly a huge disappointment for me 😮

Thank you! Yeah, it’s nice to take some breaks every now and then, for sure. I’m sorry to hear you had a huge disappointing read during February. I hate when that happens, especially if it’s a book that I’ve been really looking forward to.

Breaks definitely are important 🙂
It really sucks, but I did read a lot of good books and in March I had a positive surprise, so there’s that 🙂
