Books, Taylor Swift, and other hyperfixations
Another tag! Another tag! This one covers my two favorite things: romance and tropes. I found this tag on Another Bookworm, where I had a lot of fun reading Karla's answers. (She's 100% right about The Ex Hex.) You can find the original post at The Infinite Library. If you'd like to do the tag… Continue reading The Romance Tropes Tag
Today's Top Ten Tuesday covers my favorite trope. Listen. Listen. When it comes to romance, enemies-to-lovers is the way to go. To view someone as a threat, you have to view them as an equal! That's where respect comes from! There's something magic about, "I need to take this person out...because they're too hot to… Continue reading TOP TEN TUESDAY: Books with my favorite trope/theme

THIS IS THE TOP TEN TUESDAY I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR. There's a meme going around Twitter where readers who claim to hate cliches cry over their favorite archetypes and genre conventions. The grumpy one loves the sunshine one? I'm tearing up already. (RONAN'S SECOND SECRET WAS ADAM PARRISH.) For my favorite tropes, I chose a… Continue reading Top Ten Tuesday: Favorite Tropes
Sofii over at A Book. A Thought. created the perfect book tag. It's called The Perfect Book tag. The idea is to combine a number of beloved into a single perfect read. Oh, and you can't use the same book twice. I don't know that my book will turn out perfect, but I'm still excited… Continue reading The Perfect Book Tag
I spent the summer of 2012 on the website TVTropes. Tropes got me through a stressful nanny job, my first breakup, and a panic surrounding college housing. I've been using the website ever since. As soon as I finish a new show, I pull up it's YMMV page to read alternate theories and comments. Kristin… Continue reading Tropes Book Tag
Can't stop, won't stop. I'm not cool enough to use sassy hashtags on Twitter. I will GLADLY use them for books, though.
