I've also come across a few audiobooks wherein the reader destroys the novel for me. One came to a full stop between every word as if it was a sentence ending. I couldn't take much of that!

100 books will always sound so impressive to me haha. I wanted to read 60 books this year after reading this number of books last year quite easily, but I'm just scratching 50 this year, so I want to try again in 2024. One thing that I'm excited for is using Netgalley for the first time! Trying to vlog sounds exciting, but don't feel like you have to :) and I'm with you on the skepticism about reading sprints, never tried one to be honest haha

I'm usually a little hesitant about "celebrity" memoirs and memoirs in general, and I've felt the same about the Britney Spears book, especially when I heard only about the Justin Timberlake parts, but hearing people on booktube talk about the book made me intrigued because they mention a lot more than that. Happy Halloween and I'm happy for you getting that doctor (but I'm also so surprised that's the situtation in Canada, not having a family doctor sounds like such a headache!)
