  • Books Read Jan-Sept 2023

    October 1, 2023

    I don’t think I’ve mentioned anything I’ve read this year except for maybe two quick mentions so I thought I’d list what I’ve read so far. There won’t be any commentary because I just don’t have the energy for that today, but I wanted to see at a glance what I’ve read and how much I’ve been reading lately.

    I have nothing recorded between October 2022 and February 2023 when I kinda woke up and realized I needed to have something to read. Probably because it was cold and gross and February. I’m trying not to let that happen as I’ve got a to be read list a mile long. Those books are books I’ve bought sitting on my shelf and I really need to read them. Okay, here’s the list.

    1. Faithful by Alice Hoffman
    2. The Midnight Library by Matt Haig
    3. The Sharper Your Knife the Less You Cry by Kathleen Flinn
    4. Cash The Autobiography by Johnny Cash
    5. Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner
    6. Art of Homemaking by Daryl V. Hoole
    7. Joys of Homemaking by Daryl V. Hoole
    8. The 40 Day Feast by Wendy Speake
    9. Our Lady of Fatima by William Thomas Walsh
    10. The Home Edit – Life by Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin
    11. The Home Edit by Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin
    12. The Good, The Bad, and the Barbie by Tanya Lee Stone
    13. The Wilder Life by Wendy McClure
    14. Farmer Boy by Laura Ingalls Wilder
    15. Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella
    16. How To Be Fine by Jolenta Greenburg and Kristen Meinzer
    17. The Obituary Writer by Ann Hood
    18. The Little House Traveler by Laura Ingalls Wilder and Rose Wilder Lane (just started)
    19. The 40 Day Social Media Fast by Wendy Speake (just started)

    So just for easy math – almost 20 books in 40 weeks this year so a book every couple of weeks. Not too bad. As much as I love books I’m not a prolific reader apparently. I take a lot of books out of the library, scan through them when I get them home and then act as if I’ve read them I guess because I forget about them after that. I also start books and then decide I don’t really want to read them and read something else. Lately though I’ve decided to actually read the books I’ve bought over the last few months to jump start my reading again. And I’ve bought A LOT of books per usual – new and used – so it’s time to read them before they get shelved.

    OK – that’s the reading update. Maybe this week I can get to the beauty update. Better late than never right? Happy October!

About Me

Mom avatar

Hi - welcome to Oh Crap! and if you come back enough times you'll soon find out why I named my blog that.

I am an unperfect mom to 8 great kids: 5 boys and 3 girls (and I had them in that order too).

I have been married for either 40 really long or really short years depending on how my day is going.

Even though I have homeschooled my children for the last 31 years, I am certainly no supermom - unless you count the days I have to rescue my daughters from a moth in their room.

I love coffee, chocolate, and music from the 80's. I enjoy reading books, chick flicks, and thirtysomething.

So, that's me in a nutshell (and I'm probably more of a nut than you know). Thank you for visiting me on my blog!
