Let’s Talk Bookish Hiatus + Partial Blogging Hiatus Announcement

Dini @ dinipandareads24 Comments

It’s time. 2026 has been pretty rough for a lot of us, but I’ve now reached a point where I have very little energy left to spare. If you follow my blog, you might have seen me post about some recent life changes that have left me feeling a little unsettled and floundering over what to do next. These Loof & Timmy dino memes very accurately depict my current state of being. 😅

All that’s to say, with everything that’s going on right now, I’ll be going on a partial blogging hiatus in May. I don’t know if it’ll last beyond May, and I won’t be completely absent, but I likely won’t be posting or engaging as much this month. I’m so stressed out as it is and I don’t want to stress myself more thinking about having to post and constantly reminding myself that I need to create something. I still love my favourite weekly memes though, so I hope to miss out on as few of those as possible!

Speaking of memes… If you participate in the weekly Let’s Talk Booksih Friday discussion post, you may have noticed that Aria and I didn’t post any topics for May, and that’s because we’re also taking a break for the month. I think we have a bit to think about the future of this meme—don’t worry, it’s not disappearing—but there may be changes on the horizon! Plus, as mentioned, we have a lot going on and we don’t want that to affect how we host LTB.

On that note, I hope everyone’s doing okay and taking care of themselves. 💜

  2. I’m glad you’re doing the right thing for you – I took a break earlier this year and it really helped me feel much more positive towards blogging! I did work on posts during the break but with much less pressure as I knew they were pretty far in advance. Take care of yourself and I hope the break is relaxing and refreshing and full of fun things for you!

    • Thanks Elle, I appreciate that so much! 💜 This year is shaping up to be pretty tumultuous, so I think giving myself this break will defo be helpful. That’s a good idea to prepare posts while on break so there’s less pressure. Maybe if the semi-hiatus lasts beyond May I’ll do just that. Hope you’re doing well!

  4. Definitely take the time to get some self-care in – I get the pressure of wanting to stay active, but it’s not worth stressing yourself out more!

    If you ever need a person to talk to (or rant, complain, whatever!), I’m here!! I’m most active on instagram, so send me a DM (@novelisticpages). I hope your break helps you feel a little less chaotic. Sending all the love 💖💖

  12. It’s good to take some time for yourself, especially if the need to create is stressing you out. I get it—I did a partial hiatus recently, too. I hope taking a bit of hiatus frees up some mental space to process through what is stressing you out, Dini. ♥️
