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 [...]

Top 5 Wednesday: Favorite Vampires
I vant to get your views! Okay, so vampires are considered passé now. But that doesn’t mean we don’t all still love them, at least a little bit. Plus, there’s so much lore around them! There’s no one right way to do the vampire story. Their manifestations vary so much from culture to culture. I’ve [...]
Popular Books I Hate
Some of my favorite videos to watch on BookTube are the rant videos about books people hate— especially when those books are super popular. There's something so cathartic about it, even when you're not the one ranting. I watched a couple more recently and decided to make my own post about it, albeit a written [...]
Top 5 Wednesday: Characters I Used to Like But Don’t Anymore
Well, well, well. If it isn’t a Top 5 Wednesday post. It’s been a while since I’ve done one of you. I guess I just really wasn’t into the April topics. But the May topics… don’t exist. That’s right! Each Top 5 Wednesday this month is a freebie. That means you can pick from any [...]
Trope Talk: Reluctant Monster
Imagine you’re a monster— vampire, witch, werewolf, it doesn’t matter what. Imagine this is your life, either the only one you’ve ever known or one you’ve lived long enough that’s it’s all you really remember. Imagine the way you’d look at the world, the morals you’d have. They’d probably be a very different set than [...]
Top 5 Wednesday: Nostalgic Book Boyfriends
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 OMG This Song Tag
Let’s be real: it was only a matter of time until I did this tag. Books and music? That’s my bread and butter. Basically, each item has an overarching topic and two different questions: one for a song and one for a book. I’ve been itching to do this tag and today seemed like a [...]
Top 5 Wednesday: Book Fandoms I Was in Before I Joined Fandom Internet
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 [...]
Top 5 Wednesday: Fandoms I’m No Longer In
Hosted by ThoughtsOnTomes Hola, Strangers! It’s Wednesday again, so you know what that means… Top 5 Wednesday! I have been looking forward to this topic All. Month. Long. This week we’re listing our top five fandoms we are no longer in. You’ve probably figured this out about me by now, but I love talking about [...]
