November Reading Plans

It's November and as the year comes to an end, my reading plans are mostly focused on getting my Goodreads challenge goal in (I'm at 69% 😬) and getting lot's of cozy time on the couch with a hot cup of tea. But there are two reading events I definitely want to join.


November is, as always, NonFictionNovember and I'm hoping to read at least one book for the challenge, especially seeing as I've barely read any nonfiction at all this year. And I've got some really exciting ones waiting on my tbr:

Hardwiring Happiness is a book I've got on my bedside table and read a few pages here and there every week. It's a wonderful book, teaching an essential life skill for our times. Ace has been patiently waiting for me to be in the right mood, and Wanderlust has been gathering dust even longer. But I'm currently trying to re-establish my walking routine (day 2, yess!), so it's a case of the right book at the right time.


Another fun reading challenge is the SciFiMonth event. Very fun cause I'm always in the mood for scifi and I've got a pile waiting to be read. But here are the few I might actually manage to read:


I'm still mourning the end of The Expanse tv series and decided afterwards to read the books, so I could find out how it all ends. Last year or so I read book one and while I actually prefer the adaptation for once, I'm happy to get to return to the Expanse universe again. And the show's seasons 2 and 3 were my favorites, so I can't wait. I read two short stories/Novelettes by Divya and really enjoyed her imaginative worlds, and Meru promises all that plus intricate politics, I hope i can keep up. And last month I powered through Paradise-1, which basically read itself even at nearly 700 pages. But it ended with an abrupt TBC, so I'm relieved book 2 is out now.
