The Monthly Chapter | January 2023
Welcome to The Monthly Chapter for January 2023.
It’s a new year and let me tell you I have big plans for both blogs this year. Right off the bat you can see I changed a few things with this particular series. Not too much because honestly, it has been one of my more popular series and giveaways. There will be a few new things happening around here and a few tired and true things.
One of my biggest things here is to post a little more often here. I feel like I fell behind so much here last year and I don’t want that to be the case. I have been working ahead and prepping as much as I could. Some things just can’t be done early but I wanted to be sure I was ready.
I had fallen into a bit of a reading slump the last few months of last year and it really showed here. I don’t know why but it seemed like nothing interested me at all. This month I am hoping to rekindle my reading fire and find not only new authors but expand my genres a little more.
Reading This Month
PLEASE NOTE SOME OF THESE BOOKS MAY BE ARCS (ADVANCED READING COPIES) AND NOT YET AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE.
I’ve got a few Jayne Ann Krentz and Linda Howard books that I’m going to read soon.
I would love to take January and catch up on my reading. My daughter left me some great books on her visit and with a warm mug of tea, I should be able to achieve my goal
I plan to read more this year that’s for sure but I don’t have anything on deck at the moment. Happy New Year to you best wishes in 2023!
I’m not entirely sure what I will read but I do want to finish off series I’ve started last year. Tracy Wolff and K.F. Breene are a couple authors I will read.

I would really like to read more books this year!
My kids and I will be reading a lot together. I am reading The Nightingale right now.
This week I am re-reading “Dune”. I just finished another book by the author “the White Plague”, I really wanted to like it, but it felt … unfinished, unpolished, like he wasn’t sure where he wanted to go. I made me miss his other stuff.
I am not sure what trope to start with this year I like to choose a different one each month.
