My 2021 Reading Challenge | Introduction

11/01/202108/01/2021by ErinLeave a Comment

Welcome to my 2021 Reading Challenge blog post, as you may know I did a reading challenge in 2020 and I managed to read around 30 books (20 or so from my reading list as well as a few others), which was exciting, but after completing last years reading challenge I decided I wanted to change things up a bit. Last year I had a dedicated list of books I wanted to read and for the most part that was okay but I did find myself feeling a bit restricted with that format, so for this years challenge I'm changing things up a bit to make it a bit more fun by creating a list of prompts which I'll share below.

Free Printable Bookmarks 01 – Quotes

02/08/202016/09/2020by ErinLeave a Comment

I'm sure by now you know that I've been doing a reading challenge this year, which I've been thoroughly enjoying and in addition to my quarterly posts, I wanted to share some additional book related content, so I thought I would share some free printable bookmarks because when reading its important to have something to mark your page so you don't forget where you were up to, right.
In today's post I've provided some free printable quote bookmarks, these bookmarks are for personal use only, meaning you can print them off for yourself or a friend but you can not resell them in digital or printed form. Anyway I do hope you enjoy them and feel free to tag me on Instagram at @ erin_applebee if you do print them off and use them.

2020 Reading Challenge | Second Quarter Update

08/07/202016/09/2020by Erin

I can’t believe how fast this year is going, in today’s post I will be sharing with you my ‘Second Quarter’ Reading Challenge Update, how crazy is that, 6 months of the year gone already I can’t believe it. The first month of this quarter I started off pretty good and I read through ‘The Hunger Games’ pretty quickly, I think it may have been a matter of a couple of weeks and then I moved on to Cassandra Clare’s ‘Infernal Devices’ trilogy. This one I could have finished in a month but I found myself feeling a bit tired and I didn’t feel like reading much. I was going through binge watching TV Show’s faze, still kind of there but anyway my reading for this quarter could have been better but what can I do really, other than try better for the next quarter.

My 2020 Reading Challenge

21/03/202003/11/2020by ErinLeave a Comment

In January I set myself a challenge to read more, I love reading but it can be so easy to get caught up in using digital devices, whether its scrolling through Instagram or Pinterest or watching hours of TV and Youtube. Or just spending copius amounts of time on the computer working.
While I try my best to balance time on and off devices I do find myself every now and then spending more time on than off, so I wanted to give myself a challenge in 2020 to read a bunch of books on my shelf.
