Hello bookish people,
So we enter in the second half of November, which means we are nearly in December, so near the end of 2021. I can’t believe that I read that much in almost a year! However, for the end of the year, this blog will have some changes to start on a good note in 2022.
Explanations
Let’s start with my mood. As I struggle with my mental health, I struggle more and more to read. I just don’t want to do anything. You can add that I’m not a big fan of winter which doesn’t help too.
Also, my mother will have surgery and need to stay at the hospital until at least the middle of December, which means that if I have an awful day, I will be alone to cheer me up. Then, I try to do a thing (but it’s a secret for now), and as it was delayed, I don’t know when it will end, and it stresses me a lot.
Finally, I feel like I don’t appreciate all the books I read as I should be, plus I’m afraid to take the risk of reading a big or complex book as I know it will take me a lot of time to read it. I stress more and more to be on time to write a review on the right day, so I read them fast, maybe too fast, to appreciate them. However, doing that makes me doubt the quality of the content I offer on this blog. I’m not satisfied at all!
Changes
Due to all the reasons above, I have decided to take a step back on my blog. So here is what will change until next year.
Blog
So as you have seen, it’s a long time since I post a Sunday Post. I prefered to stop it and only post when I do a readathon (which I’m late btw) and my monthly haul. Nothing will change for the three monthly posts at the end of the month (wrap up, recommendation, and TBR game). I will continue them, but for the TBR game, I will continue with 5 rolls and no more, so I have room to mood read. For the review, I will continue to do them, but I will post them when I want. Sometimes it will be on schedule, but it will be on another day if I can’t.
It’s a long time since I didn’t post any reviews there. It’s for a simple reason I’m not happy with it. I don’t find it attractive of anything. I wasn’t pleased with the caption I was doing anymore, so I decided to stop to think of a new way of doing things. So I may post something, but until next year there will be nothing outstanding there.
I hope that you are good with that and understand what I’m trying to do here. In the beginning, this blog was just a way of sharing my thoughts on the books I was reading, and it wasn’t a pressure or anything, and I didn’t want it to be like that. So, I prefer to change things before they begin to be too overwhelming and become a burden to do.
See you soon,
Liz.
