Sunday Sum-Up: My One Year Blogiversary!

Happy Sunday, readers! And welcome to another Sunday Sum-Up!

Can you believe it has been one year since I started blogging on this platform? I never realised the time passing and suddenly I it’s been one year since I posted my first blog post in August 2020!

I want to take this space to thank all of you who have been following, liking, and commenting on my work! Being a blogger is no easy work and part of that is being involved in the community. I personally know how it takes up a significant chunk of time and space to sit down and keep up with your favourite blog. I am grateful to have 81 followers who regularly go this – and I am quite mind-blown by that fact too, honestly!

Thank you for the past year with all of you wonderful people! It kept me company during times that would have been lonely and gave me purpose when I thought I wasn’t really good at anything beyond my career path. The latter is a pretty life-changing revelation to make, trust me, so this blog holds a very special place in my heart right now.

So, I think it is only fair that I share a little bit of my plans for this blog since I have passed the one-year milestone!

I have established this nice routine of book reviews, discussions and these weekly wrap-ups, and now with my newfound love for new release lists. However, I am curious about the type of posts you like seeing in blogs, and what your favourite content in my blog is, so let me know in the comments! If there are suggestions you would like to leave, do that too!

I’ll be blogging pretty regularly for the next few months, but there is a big possibility that I will limit my posting once I start working full-time in a hospital next time, so I am curious to see what type of content my readers enjoy seeing here the most. I suspect my schedule would be pretty erratic then and I might need to resort to just book reviews or my Sunday Sum-Ups, but let’s see once I get there.

Also, I reached 1.5K followers on my bookstagram! I plan on hosting a giveaway for my followers starting next week, so keep an eye on my feed if you are interested in that. It would be international as long The Book Depository ships to your country.

And that’s all for this week’s catch-up! Thank you once again for being here and I hope you find some great bloggers to support below!

I made a list of all the adult sci-fi releases coming out in the second half of 2021.

It was my blog tour stop for The Mismatch by Sara Jafari on Thursday, so I posted a review along with some of my favourite quotes!

I discussed why I think books are an effective medium for horror.

And that brings another Sunday Sum-Up to an end!
