I have watched Our Flag Means Death all the way through twice and I want to know: why can't media be this queer all the time?? Other media is so BORING by comparison! I've read numerous books that would have been MUCH better with a queer subplot of some kind, specifically a romantic one. These… Continue reading Books That Would Have Been Improved With a Queer Romance
The Cat Markings Book Tag
Another book tag for mental health! This one is about cats and comes with its own graphics! I found this tag on Fi's Bibliophiles. The tag and the graphics were created by The Corner of Laura. Look how cute these graphics aaarrre. Confession: I am terrified of cats. I grew up with dogs, so cat… Continue reading The Cat Markings Book Tag
The Zodiac Book Tag
I, a Capricorn, must do every zodiac-themed book tag that exists. I simply must. When I found this tag at The Reading Fairy, I IMMEDIATELY drafted a post. The tag was created by Swift Walker at JustDreamland, whose blog has since been deleted. Aries: A wild and powerful book, compelling from start to finish. Every page… Continue reading The Zodiac Book Tag
April Wrap-Up: Springtime School Daze
May the Fourth be with you! I won't lie: this week has been difficult. For me, things in general have been difficult. I've had a lot of anxiety about school, COVID, future plans, and whatnot.

Encanto Book Tag
I watched Encanto while housesitting and ended up in a puddle on the floor. This movie is INTENSE. It absolutely deserved the Oscar for Best Animated Feature. If you haven't yet, please watch it.

Not Enough Time TBR Book Tag
I packed several dozen books for housesitting. Guess how many of them I read? I had such ambitions! Zezee did this TBR-themed book tag on her blog and I guess I feel like shaming myself. At the very least, because I drafted this post so long ago, I've since read some of these books! Huzzah!… Continue reading Not Enough Time TBR Book Tag
Fandom Book Tag
This book tag has 15 prompts and I need a distraction. From what? School, mostly. Do I spend more time complaining about school than I spend doing homework? Yes. I'm going to reveal whether I was part of the fandoms named in this tag. I currently belong to the Our Flag Means Death fandom and… Continue reading Fandom Book Tag
TOP TEN TUESDAY: Bookish Merchandise I’d Love to Own
