Yes, I still exist. I think?
Oof, the rut I’ve been in friends. Not only just not wanting to write any reviews, but really not wanting to read many books either. It’s like my brain had held it all together as best it could for as long as it could, and now it just needed a break whether I wanted it or not. I’ve been binge watching TV like there’s no tomorrow, and playing video games again (which I really never do), but books took a backseat. It’s been a rough go, if I’m being honest. I kept wanting to catch up on reviews in here, but my reader brain just didn’t want to cooperate. And, you all know me, I don’t put out anything that isn’t up to what I consider my standards to be.
I’ve started reading again, mostly through audio books, so that’s nice! I’ll try to pop in here this month at least to do some weekly memes and keep up with you all. I’m not going to force myself to write reviews, but if they come organically I’ll let them! What I can say though is, don’t feel bad if this happens to you too for a while. Things change, situations change, people change, and that’s okay. Growth is weird, and not always upward, and that’s okay too.
Big hugs, from me to you. Missed you all.

You will get back to it don’t worry!!
I’ve definitely been there myself and indeed audiobooks helped a ton to ease my way back into reading!

Audiobooks have been my saving grace too! I think I just burnt myself out, and I needed a rest. It’s taking longer than I expected to bounce back but hey, we can’t make our brains do what they don’t want to do!
