Today's Top Ten Tuesday is a "love freebie" in honor of Valentine's Day. Woohoo! I love taking time to gush about my favorite ships. Here are some ships I've come across recently in my reading and streaming. Cassian x Nesta (A Court of Thorns and Roses series) No, I haven't read A Court of Silver… Continue reading TOP TEN TUESDAY: Current favorite pairings
If it wasn't made clear in past posts, I'm bisexual. I wasn't privy to/able to process this piece of information until my mid-twenties. So it goes. It took me until NOW to realize that many of the SFF YA novels I've purchased over the years have similar cover art. You'll see what I mean in… Continue reading Outed by my book-buying habits
I did, in fact, find another book tag on The Awkward Book Blogger. I haven't listened to a lot of Selena Gomez, though I liked her last album. I enjoyed these prompts, so here we are. The Rules: Thank the person who tagged you and leave a link to their blog.Mention the creator of the… Continue reading The Selena Gomez Book Tag
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

I joked about doing a Lana Del Rey recommendations tag. Insteaaaaad... ...I FOUND A HALSEY BOOK TAG! I've had a crush on Halsey since she dropped Badlands in 2015. She also serves as my hair inspiration (sorry, Nicholas Petricca.) Am I gushing? I'm really stoked about this tag. Castle Favorite queen DC Bombshells is already the… Continue reading Halsey Book Tag
You know how I made my Quintessential Summer Book Tag Midsommar-themed, as I am apparently obsessed with that movie? I decided that wasn't enough. WELCOME, FOLKS, TO THE MIDSOMMAR BOOK TAG. Everyone, do the tag! Come on, do it! It feels really nice! I will try to avoid spoilers. I'll try VERY hard. Oh, I… Continue reading Midsommar Book Tag [ORIGINAL]
This week's Top Ten Tuesday was a character freebie. Naturally, I went with my favorite type of character: the redhead. To begin this list, I must honor the OG redhead. #1. Anne Shirley Anne of Green Gables Anne hates her red hair. She dreams of becoming a raven-haired, violet-eyed hottie like her bosom friend… Continue reading Top Ten Tuesday: Favorite Redheads in Literature
Today's Top 5 Wednesday theme is Nostalgic Ships! I am ALL OVER THAT. I used to ship these couples hard. Like...HARD. I had Rini/Gohan, TK/Kari, and Zuko/Katara on this list initially, but my final 5 only includes book couples. #1. Jonathan/Alanna from The Tortall Universe I was in a bad place in fourth grade. I… Continue reading Top 5 Nostalgic Ships
In a word: cover. Although, upon further examination, that's not always true. A book has to have an interesting cover (and title) for me to pick it up, but neither of those things guarantees that I'll read it. This tag lets me explain what draws me to certain books. Find a book on your… Continue reading The “How I Choose my Books” Tag
