March Booktube adventures! Now is the time to start planning for March 2020 reading. Booktubers often choose their literature by participating in readathons. This is a short list of Booktube readathons for March 2020. It is not a comprehensive list, meaning: there are other readathons that aren’t listed here for various reasons. These are the readathons I’m most likely to participate in.

My Amazing, Bookish Valentine’s Day Gift
If your loved one is an audiobook loving person, this could be the perfect Valentine’s Day gift. I confess, I gave it to myself last year, and I’ve enjoyed it so much, I’m doing the same thing this year.

Book Lady’s February 2020 Reading Report
Did you notice I started this page on the first of the month? It has been a while since I’ve been able to start at day one because of my traveling, vandwelling, and general disorganization during #vanlife. I’m still sleeping in my van, but I’ve got a place to park it now.

Book Lady’s January 2020 Reading Report
I had difficulties with computer internet access during January 2020 but it was easy to get a lot of reading done… mainly on my phone, using Audible or Kindle. I’m listing the books I finished on this page.

Life Changes, Vanlife, Travel, the Klamath River, and Me
It is almost the end of January and I haven’t posted anything since December. That’s because my life has been in a state of upheaval for months. Well, that is ending. I’ve moved from North Idaho and settled back into my former (and now current) hometown in Northern California, in the Klamath National Forest. The Lord has blessed me greatly here during the last few months.

Book Lady’s December 2019 Reading Report
December . . . can’t believe it came so quickly and so here we are, dealing with the last month of the year, knowing that not all plans were carried out, not all books on my list were read (and they will not be) but a lot of other good things happened, so it is a trade off and in the end, we get what we get and it is what it is.

Book Lady’s November 2019 Reading Report
After a difficult start in my new situation here in the Klamath River Valley, I’m adjusting to the idea that I won’t be going to Arizona this month. Changes are hard to deal with sometimes. This community isn’t new to me, but living in a primitively equipped no-build cargo van in cold weather is not what I’d call great fun… but I’m learning to deal with it and getting things I’ll need to spend the winter here. And, I’m reading again!

Book Lady’s October 2019 Reading Report
October! It was so cold in North Idaho, all I could think of was getting out of the cold. Reading didn’t happen. I’m living in my van, which isn’t insulated yet. It was so cold I couldn’t even focus on learning to use the propane heater I bought, and I couldn’t leave town because I was waiting for a business deal to go through. It took much longer than expected. Finally got out of there on October 11. Forgot to tell my daughter I was leaving town, because I just wanted to wake up in a place that wasn’t below freezing.

Book Lady’s September 2019 Reading Report
I started this page at the beginning of the month of September, but didn’t publish it until the last day of the month. That’s how my month went. It was busy and distracting. The main distraction was that I was moving, and this involved a lot of work.

Book Lady’s August 2019 Reading Report
I’m getting to it. Really… only a few days late with this posting. I’ve been busy. I returned to North Idaho. I’m moving out of my apartment. I joined a health club so I’ll have a place for exercise and showers while I’m traveling. I’m getting used to the exercise and having fun visiting members of my church. And I’m reading. This posting is all about my August reading plans, realities and hopes.

Book Lady’s July 2019 Reading Report
I’ve been traveling during the early part of July, so this report is a bit late, but still, here I am, ready to write about my July reading. Books are always on my mind.

Book Lady’s June 2019 Reading Report
Summer starts in June! Meanwhile, I read. A lot of what I’ll be reading this month was planned for last month, but I fell behind. There are new book choices planned as well. Only time will tell how far I’ll get through this stack of books this month. There’s a reading diary at the end of the page. I’ll be updating it with notes about my life, videos, art, and reading progress.
