Hi Readers! Two more months left in the year. And finally October became the month which was probably the worst of the entire year, with July standing in hot for the second place. I came home from my trip by end of second week to an empty home, because...

Hi Readers! Something that never happens happened this time. I’m posting the September recap half a month late! But, better late than never. September was the best month of the year without a doubt. Not a lot of reading, but just a lot of travelling! I derive a lot...

Hi Readers! Cannot help but paraphrase Taylor Swift during an August recap post… August slipped away into a moment in time…. ‘cause it was never mine… But, oh was August mine! It was without a doubt one of the best months of 2026! As dull as July was, August...
