Six Months in my Reading Journal (60+ books!) | Flip Through 📚

Today I'm flipping through the 70+ pages I've created in the first six months using my 2024 Reading Journal 🥰 I love watching flip throughs, so I thought it would be fun to do a little mid-year check-in on my yearly goals and take a walk down memory lane of each and every book I finished this year from January to June (over 60 books!)

So grab a drink or a snack and hang out with me for a bit 😊

I have a question - if I were to do more reading around the world reading vlogs, would you prefer them to be grouped alphabetically (A countries, then B countries, etc.) or by area/continent? 🤔

[SheMeetsPaper]

Some thought on reading goals vs reading slumps.

Personally, I think it’s more important to have fun reading than to meet your goals. My reading goals are meant as inspiration and to push me to diversify my reading. But if those goals start to feel like a chore, I will drop them and just focus on books that I want to read.

Ooooh I'd love more reading around the world content! And maybe we could do one as a buddy read some time, I miss doing the reading around the world as a bookclub

About the "reading around the world" challenge-- Jack Edwards posted a video recently featuring one book from each country in Europe, and it had some great suggestions! He said he plans to post videos for each of the other continents too, so that could help with inspiration

The bookish Queen has uploaded a video! Long live the bookish queen!😂😂😂😂 so satisfying to see the chunky side of your notebook 😊😊😊😊

[bujowithbeans]

your reading journal is so pretty!! i love all the spreads you create, and seeing these vlogs a few times a year is such a treat!!

[ilovevampires]

Definitely YES to more reading around the world content, I'm doing the challenge as well so it's always nice to see other people's picks for the countries. 😊

i've been rewatching the previous flip throughs over and over waiting for a new one)

A watcher from Finland here! I would love to see the reading around the world -challenge as videos, I’m intrigued for what you will be picking for Finland 🫶🏼🇫🇮

[paperbackenthusiast]

Such a stressful work day; I’m going on a walk on lunch right now and watching this and feeling sooo much better. Thank you as always! Hope you’re well

[Citizenofyoutube]

I was wondering can we get a bookshelf tour? Also, your videos are so therapeutic to watch.
Omg yes! Please do reading vlogs!

[Drawreadplaymusic]

I always love to watch these videos - your reading journal is my fav! <3

[gemalopez]

I see you havent read a book from Chile, so I wanna recommend Isabel Allende´s books. All of them are amazing, but if you want something more related to the country itself, Maya´s notebook and Violeta are the perfect ones

[lunawarren]

i always love any reading vlogs you make, i would loveee a reading around the world! (to me, it makes most sense to go geographically rather than alphabetical, but both sound fun 🌎)

[ladyplutomelody]

Would love to see more reading around the world reading vlogs! It’s a great way to find new books that otherwise you wouldn’t see!

[jaderaven]

I need to read more! I love how you do your spreads! You inspire me!

[sayitloveitscreamit]

What a wonderful collection! Ireally love how much attention you give the books you read. I wish I could keep up with my reading this way too, but alas, we only have 24 hours in a day. I have found myself reading a lot more books that give food for thought than I've managed over the last couple of years. It's been really good, and I have sort of reminded myself of why I have a Master's in English lit. I have found a new favorite author too, Julia Armfield, because of the review you made on Goodreads. Can't wait to read her latest this fall. Thank you for that.

I would love a 1 to 3 hour „read with me“ video. I would probably watch it every day ❤

[Froggies]

I saw this in your story earlier and thought it was already posted and I was searching for it and getting angry I couldn’t find it - then it popped up. Days got much better! 😂

[Heothbremel]

So lovely, I'm going to try to start my channel with a similar book-of-books reading journal, thank you for being such an
