Hehe no it wasn’t unfortunately-I did read a lot of good books but just didn’t read as much as usual because of a crazy schedule. I have big plans for 2019 though š

You did so many amazing things this year. You go girl! I can’t believe you got to meet Shannon Messenger that is awesome. I was going to go to the one by my house but it was like an hour drive and I had other stuff. I’m planning on ordering your book off of Amazon soon. I can’t wait to read it! š

What an epic book list, Mya! My sister and I challenged ourselves last year, and she read about 80 books, while I only read about 40 (and we both listened to lots of audiobooks, which I still count ;D). What a pretty blog! I’m looking forward to reading more of your posts. Also, waves from the YWW! š
