Hello, and happy Friday! It’s time for the first LTB post of the year, and I’m excited for this week’s topic. Today’s topic is all about your first reads of the year, which I think will be an interesting one to discuss. And, as always, if you have topic suggestions of your own suggest them in this form!
Let’s Talk Bookish is a weekly bookish meme created by Rukky @ Eternity Books and has been hosted by me since April 2022! Each Friday, there is a discussion topic for bloggers to write about. This week’s topic was all about your first read of the year!
Happy New Year!!! I can’t believe that it’s already 2025, and I’m both excited and nervous for the new year. I know that 2025 is going to have a lot of changes, since I’ll be starting college and moving away from home. Those are changes that I’m excited for, however, and I know that whatever happens, I’ll be reading and writing a lot — especially since I’m most likely going to be an English major, and will definitely be continuing with blogging, journalism, and all sorts of writing in college! So, here are my reading, writing, and blogging goals for 2025!

It’s almost December, and almost the end of 2024! I can’t believe how quickly the year’s gone by, but I’m excited to bring you the last LTB topics of the year.

This is my fifth year doing my bookish resolutions, just this time, they’re way later than usual. I’ve set reading, writing, and blogging goals every year since I started blogging, but I just kept putting off my 2024 resolutions. It’s the first day of December, and I figured I might as well do some resolutions for the last month of 2024, as we get closer to the new year. So, here are my bookish resolutions for the end of the year!
I am writing this on November 3rd, 2020. The United States election is today, although I won’t start to find out the results until this evening. You’re 18 now, at least you should be when you’re reading this. You’re a legal adult, a senior, and you can vote. So you’ve voted, right? Or you will.
How’s life going for you. I hope that you’re still blogging. You should be. And have you read any good books lately? The third book in The Gilded Wolves Trilogy must have come out by now, and you’ve probably read it.
And the Percy Jackson Disney plus TV show!! I’m so excited for it right now, although we probably won’t get to it for years. But at least one season should have come out, maybe even two. I hope that it was good.
And has Rick Riordan written any more books? There’s that one short story that’s supposed to come out next fall, fall of 2021.
But this letter wasn’t supposed to be about books. What’s the world like? And covid? What is going on with the pandemic? As I’m writing this, my school is completely online, over zoom and canvas.
I wonder who the presidential candidates are. I’m hoping that Kamala Harris runs in 2024.
But I’m really wondering what happens with the election, and after the election. And with the Supreme Court. Who are the justices?
Also, are you better with managing your time? And do you schedule blog posts? That’s something I’m not very good with right now.
I have to end this here, because I have to go, but first, one thing.
I really hope that Joe Biden is elected president of the United States. Although he’s definitely not my first choice, we cannot have another 4 years of Donald Trump. The election happening pretty much right now is not going to end nicely, or be run completely fair and square. But you know that, since all of what I don’t know happened years ago for you.
Maybe you won’t ever read this letter, but I hope that you do, and I hope that the world is in a better place when you’re reading this than it is right now, because right now, the world sucks, in so many ways, and we need to make things better.
Sincerely,
Your 14-year-old self

NOTE (from 18-year-old me):
I wrote and scheduled this post exactly 4 years ago, and today was the first day I read it since then. So much in my life has changed in the past 4 years, and a lot of it has been for the better – I’m a senior in high school, editor of my school newspaper, and just a few days ago, submitted my first college applications. Despite all these changes, I really do think that I’m the same person I was when I started blogging, and this letter has shown me that not much has changed. Maybe I’ll write another letter for November 2028!
Hello, and happy November! The year has flown by, and I’m excited to be sharing the topics for this month’s Let’s Talk Bookish.

It’s October 16th, which means it’s my last day of being 17! It also means that it’s time for one of my favorite annual posts, which I’ve been doing for the last five years.
I can’t believe that I’ve been doing these posts for so long, and it’s always so much fun to look at what some of my favorite fictional characters did when they were my age. There are a lot of 17-year-old characters that I’m excited to talk about for this year’s post, so here they are!
