Slowly crawling back here to post to talk about books, because ngl, I missed it. At the moment, weirdly enough I only have one book on my currently reading and it still is Emily Wilde's Compendium of Lost Tales. This is the third and final book in this series, and despite me being a little over 100 pages into it I am not vibing with it. I loved the previous two books, and flew through them, but I am so stuck with this one. I don't even feel like picking it up. It is partially due to my mental health and energy levels at the moment, but also I feel like it's also this book's fault too. It's been very slow so far and I don't really see where it's going? Not much has happened so far, which also makes me wonder why this book exists in the first place. Maybe this could have been a very good duology? I feel like it's dragging a lot, idk. If someone has read the whole series and can give me some spoiler free opinions that would be lovely. I am really hoping that the plot will start doing something for me, because I want to read so bad, but at the same time this book is not keeping me interested to have a good reading session.

Hi... how r u all darlings?

I am not doing so well tbh! my depression coming back with a chokehold on me this time... I am having trouble getting out of bed to say the least... I have been working for this position for a while now and it didn't work out... and everything feels so pointless now... as though it's like I am working but it's not going anywhere... I feel utterly useless and stuck at this moment! today I've no encouraging words to say... I am searching for hope and drive to keep going... maybe this is my factory reset time, and I just need to grit me teeth thru this one!

Sending u lots of hugs and love and comfort! unfortunately, when I am down like this, I tend to spend too much money which doesn't help which in turn makes me feel even worse! Here is hoping for a stronger me with lighter heart tomorrow!

Studying, studying and more studying. Can't complain though, what I'm reading is very interesting. I only wish deadlines didn't exist.

I think this is the first time in my life that I was actually successful in continuing worship despite not having prayer!Usually going on break from prayer takes me out of the experience completely but alhamdulillah this year I was able to stay up for multiple of the last 10 nights even though that's when I couldn't pray ✨
