  • Hosted by the Top 5 Wednesday Goodreads Group   Hey, gang! Sorry I haven’t been as active lately. I just haven’t felt like blogging. Maybe that’s blunt, but I figure there’s no reason to not be honest. Today, however, I felt like I could bang out a quick post and it’s Top 5 Wednesday, so…

  • Hosted by the Top 5 Wednesday Goodreads Group   Well, tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and with that an entire moral conundrum. The very foundation of the holiday (happy pilgrims and natives working together) is based on a lie. It pretty much celebrates colonialism. It also glorifies overeating (which I have never understood how that relates to…

  • Hosted by the Top 5 Wednesday Goodreads Group Well everyone, your girl is sick. I’ve got a cold. It’s not as bad as it could be (thank you, Sambucol!), but I did have a fever yesterday. But you’re not here for an update on my health. You’re here for Top 5 Wednesday! This week’s topic…

  • The Four London Book Tag

    On Halloween this year, the collector’s edition of A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab was released. Even though it’s over a week later, I thought I’d do this tag in honor of that release.

Because, despite popular belief, diverse characters don’t have to have a reason to be diverse. Real diverse people don’t…

  • As I wrap-up my second viewing of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, I thought I’d make a tag based on the show. Nothing fancy, just questions based on the characters and other staple aspects of the show. I tried to be as unique as I could, so let’s see what you think. Mac: A character…

  • Top 5 Wednesday: Bromances

    Hosted by the Top 5 Wednesday Goodreads Group Another week, another Top 5 Wednesday! This week’s topic is your top five bromances. For this topic, a bromance is defined as a platonic relationship between two characters who identify as male. And honestly, I can’t just stick with books on this one. Because a couple of…

  • As a part of the generation that grew up with Harry Potter, I know all about the search for another book or series that speaks to me as much as it did. And, over the course of my life, I’ve found some that I think feel fit that mold. Now, I’m not going to include…

  • Hosted by the Top 5 Wednesday Goodreads Group So… this is awkward. This week’s Top 5 Wednesday topic is the top five books and series you were a part of the fandom for before you joined fandom internet. I just did a post similar to this last week for Flashback Friday. However, that one was…

  • Cassandra Clare’s magnum opus The Shadowhunter Chronicles is one of the most successful YA series to date. The characters are well-loved, the plots infamous, and the ships swoony as hell. But what do you do once you’ve exhausted every word of the overarching saga? Well, I’ve found a few other books and series that I…
