Hello 2024

Hello Lovelies!!! I’m a little too late, but hello and happy 2024!! I hope everyone has been having a wonderful start of the year so far. As for me, well so much has happened and I don’t even know where to begin… Honestly, I’ve been contemplating on being more present and active here and I really want to… but I just haven’t had the time to organize how I want this blog to be. I know I still want to promote, review, and talk about books. That being said, I also want to share more about my life in general, things I love such as baking and cooking, fashion and beauty, and finances. So, I guess once I’m done brainstorming and have something set for what I want to do, I’m going to dive into it and hopefully I’ll get into blogging again sometime soon. Until then enjoy this picture of me and my hubby. 

Sincerely,

Karen Jo Espanta

Life Lately…

Has been busy, tiring, stressful, emotional, but also filled with happiness in so many ways. I don’t know how to transition this blog to something more me now. I have not finished a single book in so long, but I still buy… I will always buy books that I someday want to read.

I have been focusing on so many things and dealing with so much that I just haven’t the energy and time to read and write. My thoughts, feelings, emotions, ideas, etc… just chaos… it’s been utter chaos and I’ve had so many sleepless nights just lost in my own mind. But with this chaos also comes new experiences, clarity, discovery, and learning. I have learned so much about myself, about others, about how I want to be as a person, how to live my life always looking forward and looking for the good in every person and everything every single day, always choosing kindness, communicating from a place of love, compassion, and understanding, being ME always and unapologetically, and most importantly forgiving myself whenever I feel at my lowest and when I make mistakes. 

I don’t know how often I’m going to write, but it’s definitely one of my goals before the year ends to share all the things that make me the happiest.
