January 2021 Wrap-Up

-

 

Was it just me or did January just fly by?!  Month 1 of 2021 is done!  I've been perusing Pinterest for some blog post inspiration because I want to spice things up a little and a monthly wrap-up was featured on almost every idea list, so I decided to give it a try!  Let's jump right in!
- Books Read -
This past month, I read five books.  Two were physical books and the other three were e-books.

Perfectly Yourself by Matthew Kelly

Making Space by Jayne Hardy
Get Out of Your Head by Jennie Allen

If I Disappear by Eliza Jane Brazier

Talking to Alaska by Anna Woltz

- TBR Pile for February -
Playing with Fire by April Henry
Attached by Amir Levine and Rachel Heller
The Home Front by DW Hanneken
A Killer's Daughter by Jenna Keman
Destination Anywhere by Sara Barnard
- Life Update -
Oh gosh, where do I begin?  If you didn't know, I am currently an aviculture intern at the International Crane Foundation in Wisconsin (as in birds, not construction).  I only have five weeks left of my term - which blows my mind - so, I've been applying to other positions in the animal care field that I qualify for like nobody's business.  I've had two interviews already this month and have two more lined up for February.

This month, I started a lifestyle blog with a friend of mine!  Check it out here.  I've also been tossing around the idea of creating a bookstagram linked to the blog, but I'm not so sure.  Thoughts?

Finally, I'm working on a project proposal that I think will greatly benefit the youth in my community.  I'm scared and have no idea what I'm doing, but that's normal, right?

Anywho, I hope y'all had a good and healthy start to the new year!  Feel free to post a link to your monthly wrap-up post so I can read all about what you've been up to!

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly post that highlights books we are excited to read hosted by Jill from Breaking The Spine. Title: Take A Bow   Author:  Elizabeth Eulberg Synopsis: From the fantastic author of The Lonely Hearts Club and Prom & Prejudice comes a story of all the drama and comedy of four friends who grow into themselves at a performing arts high school. Emme, Sophie, Ethan, and Carter are seniors at a performing arts school, getting ready for their Senior Showcase recital, where the pressure is on to appeal to colleges, dance academies, and professionals in show business. For Sophie, a singer, it's been great to be friends with Emme, who composes songs for her, and to date Carter, soap opera heartthrob who gets plenty of press coverage. Emme and Ethan have been in a band together through all four years of school, but wonder if they could be more than just friends and bandmates. Carter has been acting since he was a baby, and isn't sure how to admi...
