FOREVAH

It has literally been forever since I have been able to post on this blog. Not because I didn't care about it, although lets be honest no one reads it but my husband I am pretty sure... But because I got a new job!

This new job affords me a lot less free time which means that in 2016 I read about HALF as many books as I read in 2015. Not a huge deal. I still managed to complete 84 books but compared to the 160+ I read the year before it was definitely a bit disappointing in my eyes.

That being said, I am now officially an elementary school teacher. That comes with less money, (blah) less free time, and more overall job satisfaction. I love it. I definitely do, although I wasn't sure at first.

I started out working like 65-70 hours a week and I am down to like 55. I have already finished a book this year, The Princess Diarist by Carrie Fisher after her untimely passing and was very impressed by how poetic and insightful her actual diary entries were. The rest of the book was just okay but over all I enjoyed it. I also have read Volume 6 Miss Marvel Civil War II. I was a little disappointed by this latest installment. I will however be continuing with this for the entirety of the run because I really like Kamala and her story line.

Overall, I am excited about 2017. I have set a goodreads goal of 80 books. I have a ton of awesome netgalley.com review copies I am very excited to dive into and I am just looking forward to having my ENTIRE summer off to read.
