Monthly Wrap-Up | June 2019
Halfway through the year – who else is panicking about the books you haven’t read yet? š¬ Fortunately – and I hope this is true for you too – the books I have read so far have been wonderful, including the few I read in June.
2019 Louisa May Alcott Reading Challenge | Final Update
The 2019 Louisa May Alcott Reading Challenge has come to an end (officially tomorrow, June 30th), so I’m here with my final reading update.

My thoughts are as follows.

Despite feeling like June just started, we are now closer to the end of it than the beginning. Iāve decided to use this [just over] halfway point to talk about my progress with the Louisa May Alcott Reading Challenge. You can learn more about this Challenge in my introductory post and at In The Bookcase; otherwise, keep reading for my thoughts on Rose in Bloom so far.
20 Books of Summer | 2019
Summer reading has always felt like a special event to me. It definitely has a lot to do with getting out of school and having much more time to read what I wanted to – even if I happened to enjoy the books I read during the school year. The beginning of summer meant the start of my local library’s summer reading program, which was exceptional. Every year, young readers (it was geared towards school-aged kids) would write their name on a special paper “placard”, and during a library visit stickers symbolizing books read would be awarded by the librarians then placed on the placard by the reader. It was thrilling – both the feeling of accomplishment when looking at my stickers, and seeing how many books other kids had read (we were allowed to tape up our placard almost anywhere in the library).
