I have this reading tracker for 2026. I love it. You should buy one if you want one. It‘s easy to fill in. I don‘t fill mine in every day. I only fill it in if I‘m reading books throughout the month or if I get accepted for new ARCs. Whatever doesn‘t get filled in during the month, I‘ll fill it out at the end of the month. I think it helps me keep up with ARCs and the books I‘m reading during the month.

I colored this picture and wrote this story about it.

For #takethreethursday, I‘m talking about the food I grew up eating. I‘m a Millennial. I was born in 1990. I had to google what foods Millennials grew up with because I couldn‘t remember. There was a lot out there. I remember eating a lot of the foods that were mentioned in the Google screenshot. I also grew up eating cereal and drinking Coke and eating Pop Tarts and candy. I remember eating Long John Silver‘s too. I was a little girl in the 90‘s.

I asked Google if it‘s okay to buy books and not read them right away and this is what Google said. I don‘t use Libby very much. I got some Barnes & Noble gift cards for Christmas so this is the perfect time for a shopping spree and because I‘m a Rewards member, I get stamps every time I shop with them.

Fiery Unicorn
Truly a horse of another color
Have you ever seen a fiery unicorn?
I‘ve never seen one
Now, I have and now, you have too

I colored this picture and I wanted to say something to my dad because today is January 6 and it‘s his birthday in Heaven. I normally only post 1 #haiku a day and then wait until the next day to post another one. The actual anniversary of his death is in February.

Here‘s my progress on my devotional and bible reading. I‘ve made progress. I‘m not in a hurry to finish reading these two books because they‘re supposed to be read throughout the year. I‘m enjoying both books. I like how the daily bible was set up and that it explains what‘s going on. It feels very approachable for me because I‘m getting back into reading the Bible again. I also like the animal devotional so far too.

Yay!

I‘ve decided that I want to finish reading this series for #serieslove2026. I really enjoyed the first book but I never continued with this series. I was having a hard time deciding between this contemporary romance series or an MMA romance series. I think I would enjoy this series. I will be rereading the first book so I can continue with this series. Hopefully, I‘ll be able to get around to reading it this month.

Here‘s my January #bookspinbingo board.

Here‘s my January #bookspinbingo picks. The first pick is a #roll100 book and the second pick is a mood reading prompt but I‘m not picking a book right now for it.

Here‘s my January #bookspinbingo list.

This is my #readyourkindle January picks. They‘re all mood reading prompts but I won‘t be picking anything for them right now.

Here‘s my January #readyourkindle list. I‘m hoping to prioritize my #roll100 books. The Beekeeper‘s Apprentice is for the #litsyiregulars book club. It‘s our January book. Our discussion is on January 31. I don‘t know if I‘ll have time to mood read. It depends on how long it takes for me to read my #roll100 picks.

Here‘s my #roll100 picks for January. 2 of them are books I own and the last book is an audio ARC I was sent from The Smuthood PR. I signed up for it in 2025 and I was approved for it but I never read it. I‘m hoping this will be the month I read it.

Here‘s my 2026 #roll100 list. I‘m using a spreadsheet like I did last year but I added all new books to my list.

I still have a few things I need to do. The #roll100 numbers have been picked already but I didn‘t make my list yet. Once I make my list, I can change out the books if I need to throughout the year.

- Make my #roll100 list
- Make my #bookspinbingo & #readyourkindle lists
- Make my #bookspinbingo board
- Decide which book series I want to finish this month for #serieslove2026

I filled out some pages in my 2026 Novelly Yours reading tracker. I made some reading goals for myself, picked some book series I want to finish and picked some backlist and older books on my bookshelf that I want to read and chose books I want to read for the 26 in 26 challenge. It was hard to decide which 26 books to pick because I might not read all 26 books. It‘s hard to say. I guess it could be considered a list of possibilities.

I‘ve decided that I‘m going to start this book next. We‘re reading this for the #litsyirregulars book club. Our book club reads books inspired by Sherlock Holmes. Our discussion for this book is on January 31 so I need to read it this month. I‘m interested in reading this.

Here‘s my review for this book I finished reading at 4 AM. I was very tired yesterday from going out to lunch but I was ready to finish this book because it was sitting on my currently reading shelf on Goodreads for too long.

Here‘s my progress on the #realmofelderlings buddy read. I‘ve read Assassin‘s Apprentice and I just finished reading Royal Assassin. I‘m going to take a break from Fitz for a while by reading some other books and then when I‘m ready, I‘ll start reading Assassin‘s Quest.

I just finished this book. I‘ll have a review posted online tomorrow. I‘m too tired to write a review tonight. I have the last book in this trilogy to read next that also follows Fitz but I‘m going to read something else because I want to take a break from Fitz for a while. When I‘m ready, I‘ll start the next book.

I‘m on StoryGraph. I saw people on here sharing their accounts so I decided to share mine.

Yay!

I read this story tonight in my devotional. This story stands out to me because it‘s about books and reading and I love reading.

Here‘s my review for this devotional I just finished reading.

Yay!

I participated in #serieslove2025 and I finished reading 5 series that I had in progress. I wish I could‘ve read more series because I have a spreadsheet full of series I have in progress but I was able to delete 5 series from that spreadsheet so I‘m happy about that. One of my goals that I try to work on every year is to finish series.

I‘m sharing this grid I colored in for my 2025 book hauls from each month. It represents how many books I bought each month. This is from my Novelly Yours reading tracker. Each month has a different color.

January - Blue
February - Pink
March - Green
April - Purple
May - Orange
June - Yellow
July - Pink
August - Light Blue
September - Purple
October - Black
November - Brown
December - Red

Yay!

I‘ve also decided to start reading this devotional. I own this version of this devotional but I also have the 2025, 2026 editions too. I‘m starting with the 2024 edition since I never read it in 2024. I like this devotional so far. This devotional will take me all year to read.

I‘ve decided that I want to read the Bible for a year this year. I have this Daily Bible from Guideposts that I bought a year ago. I‘ve started reading it and so far, I like how it‘s written. I read the whole bible back when I was a teenager. I had a study bible for teenagers that I was reading but it wasn‘t very engaging to read. This one is different because it‘s written in a way that you can read it from the beginning to the end.

I wanted to share this from my 2025 Novelly Yours reading tracker. I thought this feature was really cool. I liked watching the Author Talks my library hosted online. If I‘m interested this year, I might watch some more Author Talks.

Here‘s some 2025 stats from my Novelly Yours reading tracker.

Here‘s my December #bookhaul shared from my Novelly Yours reading tracker. I have the 2026 reading tracker that I‘m going to use for this year and then I‘ll figure out if I still want to keep buying the tracker every year or not. There are things I like about this tracker and it looks so cool when it‘s posted online but it takes me a long time to fill it out at the end of the year and at the end of the month.

I saw this meme on Facebook and wrote this #haiku about it.

Here‘s my #weeklyfavorites.

Week 1 - I finished reading The Phantom Of The Opera and now, I want to watch the musical on Amazon Prime and then watch the movie adaptation too.
Week 2 & 4 - I finished reading a Christmas devotional from Guideposts and I enjoyed it.
Week 3 - I finished reading this Agatha Christie book for #christiescapers
Week 5 - I‘m reading 2 books right now so I don‘t have any books to share for this.

Here‘s how I did on my December #readyourkindle picks. I only read 1 book.

Here‘s how I did on my December #readyourkindle list. I only read 3 books. I didn‘t read the first book but it‘s not a big deal because it‘s the #litsyirregulars book club pick and we‘re not having a discussion for the book until January 31 so I have plenty of time. I‘m going to add it to my January list and start it in January.
