Watch out, I’m back…and I’m here to stay.
So, a year ago I was not in a good place. From personal issues to the daily news, I was feeling drained. Every time I read a great book, I couldn’t find the energy or the words to write even a basic review. So I let my blog slide.
Then around May I found some inner strength and wanted to revive this blog. I wanted to share good things with others. That is when I found out that my website had been hacked and was offline. I still had my second wordpress account, but my website had all of my drafts, unpublished pictures, etc. I was pissed and I was devastated. My computer-savvy husband tried to fix things. He thought it was a problem with the hosting system as one of his accounts was down as well. But after two months, I still didn’t have my site, so I threw in the towel and said fuck it.
Fast forward to a couple of days ago when my husband wanted to know my user name and password for this site. He told me he had potentially fixed things, then logged in with my information and showed me that my site still existed. I actually started crying. I didn’t realize how much I missed sharing my love of books, how much I really needed this in my life right now.
I know I will never be an influencer. That was never my goal. My goal has always been to share my love of reading, and to maybe point someone to a book that they will enjoy as much as I did. I think this is even more important now.
Going forward, while I usually avoid making political posts, I want to make it clear that this is a safe space . And if you identify yourself as MAGA, get the fuck off of my page. Believe me, you don’t want to open that can of worms with me.
So, for the immediate future, I will be recapping some of my favorite books from the past year that I didn’t have the opportunity to share. I am still planning monthly themes/goals (starting with April), and I’ve been thinking about some other features as well. But, baby steps at the moment.
Thank you for reading this, and for your support!
Stay safe everyone! And, as always, Happy Reading!!
