We've made it to the end of another round of judging for the 2023 Subjective Chaos Kind of Awards!

Reading Check-In: September 2, 2023
We made it to September. I know I'm on a hiatus, but I said in a previous post (which, you can access below) that I would still be posting about what I'm reading.

Well, we're in the second half of summer. And, while my reading has been more productive, I'm still struggling to read through many of the books I started as far back as last year.

Bookish Wishes (2023)
I'm piggybacking this week's post based on what Leah, Birdie, Peat Long, and One Book More shared on their blogs. Remember, these are books I'm hoping to purchase (or, to obtain) in the near future.
