Books, Taylor Swift, and other hyperfixations
Valentine's Day was two days ago and I almost missed it. I remember chocolate and some cutesy posts on Twitter. Otherwise it was a nonevent. Elli @ Ace Reader posted this tag for Valentine's Day and I thought it was perfect. This tag was created by Alice @ Love for Words, a gorgeous blog with… Continue reading Books as First Dates Book Tag
I haven't read We Hunt the Flame before but I've heard amazing things! Star is All Booked Up created this tag and I found it on Cait's blog. The prompts for this tag were especially fun. I may have to add this book to my TBR. Zafira Bint Iskandar: An Emotionally driven character (or book)… Continue reading The Zumra Book Tag
I've written at least one joke post about astrology and read two whole books about the planets' effects on our lives. In sum, I am no expert on the subject. However, I PROBABLY know enough to figure out your ideal snack based on your zodiac sign. Try and stop me. Aries Your ideal snack: Flamin'… Continue reading I, an unqualified person, determine your ideal snack using your zodiac sign
WOW, I THOUGHT DECEMBER WAS BAD. PRESIDENT-SANCTIONED INSURRECTION? MUTATED STRAINS OF COVID-19? A SECOND IMPEACHMENT? CAN WE PLEASE CATCH A BREAK? PLEASE? Last month, I worked even more mandatory overtime. Oh, and I turned 28 during quarantine. This is not exactly the fresh start I'd hoped for. I'm trying to stay optimistic. "Trying," of course,… Continue reading January Wrap-Up: WHO EVEN CARES
WE'RE BACK FOR TAYLOR'S GREATEST HITS FROM 2014-2020! This post was much harder to write than the previous. Taylor put out SO MUCH GOOD MUSIC during this period! TOO MUCH, even! I should mention the ground rules I laid out but didn't mention in my last post: I avoided covers and songs where Taylor only… Continue reading Taylor Swift – 2014 – 2020 (The Blue Album)
THERE'S ANOTHER EVERMORE BOOK TAG (this one created by Star is All Booked Up.) It's Inauguration Day and I am VERY KEYED UP. My focus is NIL so it's time for a book tag. In Taylor News, evermore is STILL my favorite Taylor Swift album. It's just so good. willow: character you'd follow anywhere I… Continue reading rise of the evermore book tag
I've played close to 40 hours of Stardew Valley. (Let's call me...ambitious.) I've befriended almost all of the suitors and even married one of them. My impressions of them have changed...at least a little. Okay, in some cases, a lot. Haley Probably watches: the CW Haley has stopped making fun of me and started complaining… Continue reading Stardew Valley Vibe Check: Updated Impressions
Hi all. I compiled a list of books today that have "peach" somewhere in the title. Hope you enjoy. James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl A classic children's novel about an orphan boy who escapes his evil aunts on a giant peach. Peaches by Jodi Lynn Anderson Three teens from different walks of… Continue reading Mmm, peach books!
Thanks to some very convincing friends, I am currently obsessed with Stardew Valley. Stardew Valley is an American farming simulator influenced heavily by Harvest Moon, a popular Japanese farming sim that I grew up playing. Players can grow crops, raise animals, explore caves, make friends, and - most importantly - romance one of twelve marriage… Continue reading Stardew Valley Vibe Check: Judging the romance options
We're eleven days into January and I'm just now posting my reading stats. Blame the jerks who tried to take over my country's government last week while the president did nothing. My nerves are shot. In other news, this statement from Andrew Yang sure hasn't aged well! Shut up. Number of Books Read in 2020… Continue reading 2020 Reading Stats + Coup Thoughts: This is not a politics-free zone
