  • Favorite Friday: Villainesses

    New year, new meme! Favorite Friday is a brand new meme in which I discuss some of my favorite things. Some Fridays it’ll be based on a topic, while other it’ll just be about some of my recent favorites. This week I’m kicking things off with my favorite villainesses. A few you may expect to

  • I realize that when I do these posts, I never explain the meme. It’s fairly self-explanatory, but perhaps I’m doing newcomers a disservice. Top 5 Wednesday is a weekly book discussion with a new topic every Wednesday. It’s each blogger and BookTuber’s job to pick five book-related things (though you’re welcome to pick things from

  • Uh oh. Is this another opinion piece about various, unrelated topics? You bet it is. I know what you’re thinking. “A woman with opinions? Burn her at the stake!” While you may be right, you’ll never take me alive. Obviously, if you read my blog, you care about what I have to say. So, despite

  • While Thanksgiving is a day to celebrate family, it’s also one of the most stressful holidays of the year. After all, even if you love your family members, that doesn’t always mean you like them— especially when extended family comes into the mix. I’ve been lucky both in that Thanksgiving at my house has always

  • The Book Bachelor

    Lately, BookTube and book blogs have been filled with videos and posts of people doing relationship-based tags, from RIP It or Ship It to The Love Triangle Book Tag (and Love Triangle Game Part 2!). This week a new tag joined their ranks, this one called the Book Bachelor Tag. Invented by Ashley from A

  • Remember when I said a part two of The Love Triangle Game was coming soon? Well, I decided I wanted to spread the two posts out a little bit. I wanted to wait a little longer, but I’ll be out of town next week and don’t have time to write a full, brand new post.

  • You know how we all dreamed of going to Hogwarts? Well, earlier this year, our letters finally came! Er, sort of. They came in the form of a role-play game. Still, that’s more than we’ve gotten from previous games where we simply went on Harry’s journey. In this game, titled Hogwarts Mystery, you get to

  • Whether they’re in your closet, under your bed, or just in your imagination, monsters have had a grip on all of our minds since childhood. They fill us with terror and exhilaration. Therefore, it’s no surprise that this week’s spooky Top 5 Wednesday topic is our favorite monsters. Fiction has so many great monsters, it

  • Trope Talk: Hate-to-Love

    When asked about favorite tropes, the one that seems to come to most people’s minds first is the hate-to-love trope. While I love me some good angst, this isn’t a trope that usually makes my list. I think it’s because I don’t always like how it’s handled. Essentially, there’s Good Hate-to-Love and there’s Oh-No-This-Is-Borderline-Abuse Hate-to-Love.

  • Four Word Summary Challenge

    I was browsing some new blogs today, when I came across a new tag I thought was just neat. This tag is, as you can tell by the title, the Four Word Summary Challenge. For this challenge, you have to summarize a book using only four words. Those words cannot include character names or any
