It’s customary to say some words to mark a blogoversary and I had a waffling post on the go. Then I thought, why not just do an infographic with inaccurate pie charts? The numbers are not spot on but they vaguely illustrate how my reading has changed from my first year of blogging to this year just gone. Also, numbers!
When I started out, I was single, renting a shared flat and had loads of time to read. Now I have a Josh and a Scully to keep me distracted and our very own house. So I don’t blog or read as much as I once did, but that’s OK because it’s just one little part of my life now.
I’ve quietly added a Read the World challenge page to my blog. I know others are doing this to deadlines but I’m going for a leisurely, get done in my lifetime sort of thing.
My blog was meant to be getting a new template for its birthday but we’ve had some teething troubles, so that will happen when I have time to wrangle it back into shape. Here’s to another year!

Congratulations Ellie! It's been lovely following your blog for the last several years – so many amazing recommendations! – and even better to get to know you in person too. 🙂
6 years of blogging is such a fab achievement! It's interesting to see how much your interests have changed in reading. I really want to start reading more graphic novels

Happy blogoversary Ellie! It's interesting to see how much your reading has changed – crime and urban fantasy have dropped off but YA and graphic novels have gone up a lot.
Congratulations on all the non-blogging achievements too, and I think your attitude that blogging is just one part of life sounds very healthy 🙂
Happy blogoversary! here's to another 6 years and more 🙂
Happy Blogoversary! Those stats are pretty impressive and sum everything up so nicely. Cheers to all your future years of blogging!
