Hello, and happy 2023! I can’t believe that it’s already the new year, and it feels like last year went by really quickly. There’s a lot that I’m really excited for this year, and I have lots of plans. So, here is my last wrap up of 2022, and my first set of goals for this year.

In December I read three books:

All three of these books are amazing, and are definitely some of my favorite books I’ve read this year. Although I would have liked to read a few more books in December, I really did love all three of these.

Here are the posts I wrote in December:

• Can you predict someone’s genre of choice? | Let’s Talk Bookish
• October and November wrap up and December goals
• December 2022 Anticipated Releases
• January 2023 Let’s Talk Bookish Topics
• Books as Gifts | Let’s Talk Bookish
• Banning Books | Let’s Talk Bookish
• Holiday Books | Let’s Talk Bookish
• Never Ever Getting Back Together, by Sophie Gonzales | Review
• 2022 Reading and Blogging Reflections | Let’s Talk Bookish

I haven’t written a review in months, so it was really nice to write one again, and I had a lot of fun with all the LTB topics!

I probably won’t read all of these in January, but these are the books at the top of my TBR right now! I’m especially excited for Reader, I Murdered Him, by Betsy Cornwell.

I really want to get back to writing more reviews, and I have a few planned for January that I’m excited to write! I also want to work on drafting my posts at least a night in advance, so that I can have more posts scheduled. And, I have a couple more end of the year wrap up posts planned, which will be fun!

I also want to post more on my bookstagram account, which I didn’t do much of last year. It’s something I’ve missed, and I want to get back to it!

I didn’t write much in December, but I’m hoping to find some time to jump back into a fantasy book I’ve been working on in January. My goal is to spend a couple hours writing each weekend, so that I can keep up the habit of it! I never do too much writing in December, since it’s right after a very busy nanowrimo November, but I want to make more time for writing outside of nano months in the new year.
