🎉 woot woot! i did it! i finished the 2025 book bingo! the last 2 squares are done, making 4 bingos and a blackout! i marked them in gold because it’s the holidays! i can't believe i pulled it off right at the end of the year! woot woot! 🥳

i'm so proud of myself! 🥹

read a zine & make a zine: so i follow this artist on YouTube, brattyxbre, who loves zines, and read her free zines on her zine archive, love them and love her! 😍

as for make a zine, i started a mini zine back in FEBRUARY and didn't finish it until recently, it's actually double sided, w/ one sided titled "how to say i love you in flower" and the other "how to say fuck you in flower", with public domain vintage botanical drawings of flowers and their meaning in victorian flower language 💐

i made it all in my 20+ yr old version of photoshop 5.5 and finally printed it out and folded it, unfortunately i don't have a color printer, so it's in black and white and doesn't look great, but it's DONE SON! 👍

(bonus mini zine under the cut)

here's the pdf if you want to print one of your own! 🎁

and here's a brattyxbre video on how to fold a one page mini zine 💝

bookseller or librarian rec.: for my birthday, i went to a local romance bookstore and asked the cashier for an Emily Henry recommendation, since i wanted to read one of her books but wasn't sure which one i should get, she recommended Beach Read, so i bought a copy, yay! i talked to someone about books! i finally read it this month, i liked it and would read another Emily Henry book in the future 📚

thank you SO MUCH @batmanisagatewaydrug for hosting this, i had so much fun discovering, finding, reading all the books! and i'm looking forward to 2026 book bingo 🥰

i hope everyone had fun w/ their 2025 book bingo! happy reading! ❤️

I’m not sure I can believe this since I’m running late to work, but it’s a nice sentiment. 🤷‍♀️

Maybe once I get a task done and I can take a break I’ll be able to appreciate this more

I hope you’re able to take a break and not rush today! 🥰❤️

2026 Book Bingo update - Jan/Feb

🎉 woot woot 9 squares marked from books read in Jan/Feb! no bingos yet, but maybe soon 🤞

short story collection: Hotel California edited by Don Bruns, short murder mysteries that i thought were very kewl, and might even look at some of the authors novels some day, ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

MC isn't human: Network Effect by Martha Wells, i love the murderbot diaries, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

indie pub or self pub: On Thin Ice by Nelly Blythe, Nelly Blythe plugged her self published debut novel on a goodreads group discussion board post that we're both members of, and i thought "college hockey romance, debut author, i'll give it a try", it was light angst, slow burn, no spice, solid ⭐️⭐️⭐️

book about music: Fahrenheit-182: A Memoir by Mark Hoppus, i love blink and mark has always been my bias, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

not orig. published in English: Boulder by Eva Baltasar, a youtuber recommendation that's been on my tbr for a while, it made me wonder, why people settle, why they stay, because boulder should have left long before she finally did, and i get it, but still... sigh ⭐️⭐️⭐️.25

science fiction: Fugitive Telemetry by Martha Wells, i love the murderbot diaries again, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

manga, comic or graphic novel: the Way of the Househusband, Vol 15. by Kousuke Oono, the combination of yakuza and homemaking cultures is just so much fun, love this series, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

romance novel: Three Nights with a Scoundrel by Tessa Dare, finally finished the last book of the Stud Club series, they're all interconnected stand-alones, so i really didn't need to remember the other 2 books, but the murder mystery that's teased throughout the series does finally get solved, ⭐️⭐️⭐️.25

writer bio or memoir: House of Dreams: the Life of L.M. Montgomery by Liz Rosenberg, i only knew she was a pastor's wife who wrote books, i did not know she was practically orphaned young and had been writing most of her life, a very good read, ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5

thank you @2026-book-bingo for the bingo card! i hope to get a bingo soon, wish me luck 🍀

happy reading everyone! 🥰
