Tell me why journaling requires such a big space to turn into a chaotic mess of supplies and paper everywhere 😩😂 I wanted to journal last night but didn’t want to make a whole ass mess to clean up haha. Oooo I love your lil shroom sticker I saw you add to a page. I have been in a dark cottagecore state of mind recently, and your spreads are screaming that!! I love a gothic vibe so I hope you read some books with that. I’m glad you’re in that mood 😍 Also, I couldn’t relate more to your “slumpy over life” mood. I always try to remember that it doesn’t last forever but it sucks while I’m there mentally/emotioanlly. I might give intercepts a shot!!!

The more I hear about the throne of glass series, the more intrigued I am! 👀 The cover and edges of the crimson moth!!! 😍 I feel like it matches your aesthetic so well with the black and pink! I'm so ready to hear your thoughts on intercepts. I got it in a blind date with a book and I loved it but haven't heard anyone talk about it! Slumpy over life, yes I definitely know exactly what you're talking about. I've been feeling similar lately. Really looking forward to your weekly vlogs this month. I hope you're having a great time with the readathon 🥰

I liked acotar more, but if you want less romance and way more fantasy stuff, but still very approachable, tog is good for that! The edges are stunning and it totally matches 😂😂 I wish I didn't think intercepts was scifi bc I was waiting for that, and I think it made me a little more bummed when it really didn't happen. The body gore and psychological stuff was wild though!! Happy reading🖤🤗

Loving the journal content. I have to make a new one to track health issues and I have to lay everything out too or I freak out that it looks bad. I really only read audio books I am a audio visual learner so I hate read-a-thons that are shorter than a month too

@WickedScorpio

Thank you!! That makes me so happy to hear 🥹🫶🤗 I actually track my health stuff on my phone, because it is always with me without a doubt and a little more accessible, but that's a great idea to have it in a bujo format too. Wanting it to be perfect held me back from doing a journal for a while, but I try to thinking like Bob Ross, there's no mistakes just happy accidents 😂 because no matter how much I plan or lay it out, something happens 😅 I wish I could listen to audiobooks more, but if I just lay listening, I immediately fall asleep, so I need to be somewhat active and alert, but too active, and I tune the whole thing out 🫠

Your journal is so pretty🕰

I'm all for starting it when the moment feels right! I also do not think it needs to start at the beginning of the year and you can jump into it whenever. It is a lot of time when you first start out but I have become so much more quick and efficient in just my few months of doing it. The hardest part for me is creating the space to spread out all of my stuff 😂😂 I have to rearrange the whole living room

Glad you are enjoying A Deadly Education. It's very much not a fantasy romance series, so I'm glad you liked it anyways. To me, it feels like Karl Marx and The Jungle turned into a fantasy novel with a dash of British boarding schools. Convoluted but that's my take. Also, I think A Deadly Education is New Adult and shelved with Adult. Which makes more sense as the themes progress.
