Finally remembered to take pics of the journal lol (better late than never). I rounded out February with 14 books read, many of them really fun reads, but head and shoulders above the rest was You Made a Fool of Death With Your Beauty by @azemezi which I did on audio read by the awesome @prospertunia - I was practically feral by the end of the book bc I Had To Know How It Ended Immediately Ack. Also, justice for Joy, she’s amazing, I love her, I hope we get to see her HEA someday too 💖 My March theme comes directly from @mochibujo Patreon journaling kit - Jellyfish Ladies in Space! (There’s no “official” name, but that’s basically the inspiration 💜) I used my Prismacolor pencils to color in some of the phenomenal black-and-white cover page - it just looked too stark in my journal without the color - and various @notebook_therapy washi from mostly the Moonlit Alchemy set on the tabs (I really liked how the gray-toned lavender tapes complemented but didn’t distract from Hedda’s design - also, the @archerandolive Heliotrope Calliograph brush pen I used for the headers I lettered was an exact match to the purple in the kit💜) The three photographs are pictures I took of the jellyfish at the @montereybayaquarium on a trip in 2019. 📸 Part of why February was a great reading month was due to #blackathon2023 hosted by @jesseonyoutube_ 💕💕 I knocked out my 6th book with 2 minutes to go in the month to complete my #teamoshun prompts 🎉 And finally - in a little life update, I have hip surgery scheduled for Friday 🙃 so I have a week of CHG showers and mupriocin to put in my nose twice daily. So why not make a pretty chart to tape to my bathroom mirror? 😉 #journaling #bulletjournal #bujo #reading #readingjournal #books #bookjournal #stationery https://www.instagram.com/p/CpcCmEZg86R/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It's TBR time! Check out my February TBR!

As with every February, I prioritize Black authors for Black History Month and participate in Blackathon! I have a separate TBR for Blackathon and 3 other books I want to get to otherwise, so let’s get into them! Blackathon Blackathon is a readathon that runs throughout the month of February where the goal is to read books by Black authors! There are reading challenges, Instagram challenges, a…

New month, new journal pages! I finished out January with 14 books read - standouts were Georgie, All Along by @kateclayborn.author, What We Don’t Talk About When We Talk About Fat by @yrfatfriend, and The Birchbark House by Louise Erdrich (which had an outstanding audiobook production). I love how colorful my bookshelf turned out 💙 And onto February with these beautiful pinks inspired by @mochibujo February Patreon kit 💖💖💖 Hedda’s setup also inspired me to try waterfall tabs instead of my file-folder style tabs and I really love how it turned out. I might keep using these style tabs here on out 😻 All the washi tapes are from Notebook Therapy (Moonlit Blush, Winter Moonflower, and Vintage Rose 2) and some of the extra rose stickers are from The Washi Tape Shop. (Had a little trouble with the drop-shadows on playlist/habits so that turned into a colorblock 😹) I also added a new challenge spread to my collections journal - Blackathon hosted by Jesse @bowtiesandbooks is this month!! Team Oshun! I’ve already got some good ideas for those prompts 😉 Check out Jesse’s YouTube for all the details and team recs 💖 (washi is from NT Flutter and Dream, extra butterfly stickers from the Washi Tape Shop). And if you’ve read this far, please enjoy Aphra raptly watching Hedda open pen pal mail and Shakespeare giving me FACE after being scolded for chewing pens 😹 #journaling #bulletjournal #readingjournal #bookstagram #bookjournal #stationery #stationeryaddict #blackathon2023 #cats #catstagram #catsofinstagram #cats_of_instagram #murdermittens #shakespearekitteh #aphrakitteh https://www.instagram.com/p/CoISLAerrqA/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Shakespeare is inspecting my first pass at a stack for #blackathon2023 #teamoshun 🎊 I have most of the categories covered except the water magic/aquatic themes prompt, so I’ll have to see what Jesse recs in their video when it comes out. (I also have a galley of The Hookup Plan, covers Hate to Love Romance, and an audio re-read of Take a Hint, Dani Brown, for a yellow cover 😉) #reading #books #cats #catstagram #catsofinstagram #cats_of_instagram #murdermittens #shakespearekitteh https://www.instagram.com/p/CoL9jbFuBGm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
