My new stretch reading goal for 2026 is 100 books. I think I will make it, because by the end of May, I will have completed 72 books. I had fourteen books planned for May, but I only read twelve, since I had such a […]

My May Reads – 2026. What a mess.
May was a tough month. It was, personally, one of the worst months of my life. And it was a rugged reading month over all. I struggled in a number of ways. A week in, the reading plan changed drastically. And I still had problems […]
On Spoilers. And How My May Reading Plan Has Capsized and Sunk.
Yes, it’s true. My May reading plan has taken on water, capsized, and sunk. Circumstances led to water gushing in. And the spoiler sank it. I am now in a life boat with too many alternate choices and paddling hard for shore. Will I complete […]
My April Reads – 2026
April was a strong reading month for me, despite two weeks of travel. I actually tend to read more when I am traveling. Once I am in that hotel room, I don’t have many distractions from my day to day life, and the page count […]
My May To Be Read Pile – 2026
In 2026, I had originally planned to read at least 52 books. In April I surpassed that goal, despite wrapping up my editing project and traveling across the country for a writing conference for two weeks. I still haven’t decided what my stretch goal will […]

My March To Be Read Pile – 2026
In 2026, I plan to read at least 52 books, for one per week, and due to some amazing procrasti-reading in January and February, I have only 21 left. I read 19 books in February, but realistically, I need to dial that back in March […]
My February Reads – 2026 – Part Two
I read nineteen books in February. Eleven of those were on my TBR and I discussed them in my last post. Given I read so many, I am covering the rest in this part two post. The first two bonus books focused on Agatha Christie. […]
My February Reads – 2026 – Part One
In 2026, I plan to read at least 52 books, for one per week, and I did so well in January I only had 40 to go. February was even better. I will have finished 19 books, leaving 21 to go. I have been on […]
