Books, Taylor Swift, and other hyperfixations
OBVIOUSLY I'M DOING THE EVERMORE BOOK TAG. WHAT KIND OF SWIFTIE DO YOU THINK I AM? I found this tag on Astral Books. The creator linked to other evermore tags, so now I have a TON OF EVERMORE-RELATED CONTENT TO WORK ON! HOORAY! Rules: Link back to the original creator’s post: Ahaana’s at Windows to WorldsTag… Continue reading evermore book tag: the first of many
It's my first Top Ten Tuesday in a dog's age! I finally narrowed down my favorite books. You might see some familiar books. I couldn't stop talking about these reads all year longs. The Fire Never Goes Out: A Memoir in Pictures by Noelle Stevenson The Fire Never Goes Out may have ousted my longtime… Continue reading TOP TEN TUESDAY: Favorite Books of 2020
Another band wagon for me! I DNFed a fair number of books this year. These are the ones I remember best. Space Opera by Catherynne M. Valente I thought this book was trying too hard to be The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It also made way more gender jokes than I felt comfortable with.… Continue reading Top Ten DNFs of 2020
I don't normally do a list of my least favorite books of the year. Everyone on BookTube was doing it, though, and it looked really fun.

I had a minor change of heart… Continue reading Top Ten Least Favorite Books of 2020

Yes, I'm back with another album dissection. 'tis the damn season. No one expected a second Taylor Swift album release in 2020, least of all me. I didn't see how evermore could live up to folklore. It did...and it might be my new favorite album. Hear me out: evermore is more cohesive in sound and… Continue reading whoops, evermore is my favorite actually: an album dissection (with book recs!)
I'm not very good at Among Us, but I still love it. I like to switch up my character a lot, but my favorite iteration is brown with wolf ears. I saw Breakeven Books do this tag on BookTube and I have never wanted to do a tag more. Here's to murder beans and broken… Continue reading Among Us Book Tag
It's 2020 and I'd like to highlight some small businesses (and a few larger ones) that you can order from this holiday season. I buy from some of these shops regularly and would love to see them get more business. Check out these stores for great gift ideas. Art Prints Beverly Johnson sells soft sapphic… Continue reading 2020 Gift Guide
I would really like for this year to end already. It took me three days to realize the month had changed. November was pretty quiet. I researched autism this month and ended up self-diagnosing. Autism explains most, if not all, of my childhood and adolescence. I also learned to love romance again, but that's a… Continue reading November Wrap-Up: I initially wrote “September,” so that’s where I am emotionally
Hey, do you all remember that YA fantasy novel about trans brujxs and gay ghosts that came out in September and took the world by storm? There's a book tag based on it!
