Hey, guys!
This month has been a crazy productive reading month.. but not really. I've been working on reading Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo for the longest time, but I've also managed to procrastinate everything with graphic novels! Hooray! I've also managed to finish 2 books for my classes and read too much boring textbook stuff. Today I'm going to share with you what I'm reading and listening to and about the books I read this month!

I'm really behind on reviews, but I'm working hard to get some churned out. School takes up all of my time and I barely have any time to read at all. The only reason I could read this much was because I took a 5-hour break to binge the graphic novels. I really should have done my homework that day... Oops...
I also really wanted to show you guys the books I'm currently reading. There are quite a few and most are for classes, but whatever. Here they are!
Currently Reading:
- Girl Interrupted by Susanna Kaysen
- CR // 91/169
- I've already read half of this book for my second literature class and I actually really enjoy it. This book instigates a great discussion on mental health and mental health in the 1960s.
- Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo
- CR// 246/546
- I've been reading this since the beginning of January, but school has stopped me from fully allowing myself to be immersed in it. I really want to continue, but every time I continue, I get irresponsible and want to just sit down and read instead of doing homework. I looove it though. I can't wait for a break to finish it.
- Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert
- CR// 0/329
- I'm starting this book this weekend for one of my literature classes, so hopefully, it was better than Don Quixote...
- Sass & Sorcery (Rat Queens Volume 1) by Kurtis J. Wiebe & Roc Upchurch
- CR// 46/128
- I started this today to pass the time before my hair appointment and I'm intrigued to say the least.
- Ready Player One by Ernest Cline
- CR// 305/374
- Reread + first time listening buddy read with my boyfriend
I'm really excited to finish these books.
What did you read in January? What are you going to read next?
Happy reading!
Olivia
