2022 is nearly upon us, which means it’s the season for new year’s resolutions. Statistically, most people give up on their resolutions. So how do we beat the odds? A great way to stick to a resolution is to track consistency and progress. When it comes to books and reading, there are a lot of options available today. Goodreads is probably the best known one but over the past few years, more options have sprung up.
Fall Vibes on Book Covers
This month’s topic of The Happy Place 5 is fall vibes. We decided to keep things open-ended to give ourselves a breather. I’ve technically taken an eight-month breather, and I’m barely surfacing again on the blogging front. Hah. But autumn is my favourite season. I love the hues of reds fading into yellows. Sadly, I live in the tropics. Instead of pretty colours, I contend with dreary monsoon thunderstorms. So, to cheer myself up, I turned to my bookshelves for my fall vibes picks.
A Series of New Beginnings
This month’s topic of The Happy Place 5 is new beginnings, particularly first book in series. We’re meant to share upcoming series were excited about but I’ve not been keeping up with new publications. Since I also own dozens of first books in series that I have yet to read, I decided to turn to my bookshelf. I picked out five series that I want to start this year, mostly based on how excited I was when I first acquired these books.
How to Access More Than One OverDrive Library on a Kobo
For the longest time I had two misconceptions about OverDrive and eReaders:
- I thought it was only possible to sync Kindle devices wirelessly with US libraries’ OverDrive catalogues.
- Somehow, I also thought that only one library catalogue could be linked with a Kobo device at a time.
Boy, was I wrong on both counts, and I’m more than happy to admit it. Now that I know better, and have figured out how to access more than one OverDrive library on a Kobo device, I appreciate my Kobo Forma even more than before.
Books That Kept Us Afloat in 2020
The Happy Place 5 is a monthly feature for which we pick five books according to a specific theme. This is the namesake of a Discord group that I am a part of with a bunch of book loving friends who live across the world. Our topic this month is books that kept us afloat in 2020.
