Books, Taylor Swift, and other hyperfixations
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
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! I found this on Anniek's blog and enjoyed the hell out of their answers. These prompts are...so good? I loved this book… Continue reading The Cemetery Boys Book Tag
The internet talked me into reading The Poppy War and I've been working on it for s e v e r a l months. I honestly forget how long it's been. A while, most like. I'm trying my best. I saw this tag created in honor of The Dragon Republic's release. Here we go! Fang… Continue reading The Poppy War Book Tag
Ever have reading cravings? I have them all the time, especially under duress. Last month, I felt like picking up certain books and holding them to my chest like papery teddy bears (or, in my case, miniature plague doctors.) Some of the books I craved surprised me. They weren't my usual go-tos and most of… Continue reading Updated List of Comfort Reads
Last night, all of my body parts were warm at the same time. I have been freezing my ass off at the office for the last two years. Now I'm working from home and feel, dare I say, comfortable? Riddhi @ Whispering Stories tagged me in the Finally Fall Book Tag. I love fall, so… Continue reading Finally Fall Book Tag
I heard tell of These Violent Delights, a historical-fantasy retelling of Romeo and Juliet, on Twitter. The book takes place in Shanghai and the Montagues and Capulets have been replaced by two rival gangs. I'm ALL FOR THAT. The book comes out November 17th AND there's a preorder campaign, so that's pretty neat. Mieke created… Continue reading These Violent Delights Book Tag
It's the final day of voting for Fat Bear Week and high time I shared my reading stats for last month. September was decent (better than August, anyway.) I got to see both of my brothers and some other family members. I spent an entire weekend with a pack of dogs and spent a ton… Continue reading September Wrap-up: I think I’m cured of brain worms
WHY HELLO. DID ANYONE ELSE HAVE AN INCREDIBLY BAD TIME DURING THE MONTH OF AUGUST? I think, in truth, August was probably a "normal" quarantine month. "Normal" during a global pandemic, though, is still PRETTY BAD. In August, I was rejected for my dream internship and hit a wall after two months on OkCupid. MY… Continue reading August Wrap-Up: The dog days are NOT over
It's the 23nd of Pride Month. I'm doing this tag today in celebration. Theresa, this tag's creator, used well-known mainstream sapphic books for each of the prompts. Since I recced multiple books for most of the prompts, you're getting...four times the recommendations? YOU'RE WELCOME. Crier's War by Nina Varela An enemies-to-lovers book As you may know,… Continue reading Sapphic Book Tag
Today feels like the perfect day for a cover reveal! YA author Intisar Khanani, author of Thorn, has the first book in a new duology coming out next spring. The book, titled The Theft of Sunlight, has everything: Court intrigue! Disappearing children! Thieves! Shadowy evil! Instead of taking my word for it, though, read the synopsis for… Continue reading COVER REVEAL: The Theft of Sunlight by Intisar Khanani
