Hi friends! I had a really nice reading month. I’ve decided to stop using the term “reading slump” and to instead refer to it as a “change in interests.” For a while now I’ve been much more interested in video games than reading — which is totally fine! I missed reading a lot, but I’ve been having a lot of fun playing games with friends, and on my own. This month my interests shifted back to reading and I’ve been having a blast blowing through books again. Now I’m missing video games, but they just aren’t capturing my interest at the moment so I’m not forcing it. October went by in a flash and my most notable event has been getting a new tattoo! So check out my little October album at the bottom if you wanna see that. 🙂
