This is yet another meme hosted by Budget Tales Book Blog in which you take a look back on the books you were reading on this day in the past years.

That being said, I have only had this blog since August of last year and my reading was severely lacking before then. Due to this abysmal reading history, I will mention what I was reading on this day when I first started my blog 🙂 I hope that is okay!

Back on August 23rd, 2025, I was reading:

Healing the Mountain Man’s Heart by Misty M. Beller was actually the first book I ever reviewed so the date lined up perfectly for this prompt! This was a Christian, Historical Romance that started off a series of 8 books, all of which I have read and reviewed.

Today, I am currently reading/listening to:

Clicking on the titles will take you to their Goodreads page!

FlameHeart is a Contemporary/Fantasy/Romance that I am enjoying quite nicely so far. The lines between fantasy and reality start blurring when the main character finds herself dropped into the world she has created through her writing. I am reading the KU version.

The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion (vol 1) is the audiobook I am reading. It is a humorous dive into the written thoughts and observations of Emma set in the Victorian era in London.
