  • Top 5 Tuesday: Favorite Characters (K through O)

    Top 5 Tuesday is a weekly book discussion with a new topic every Tuesday hosted by Meeghan of Meeghan Reads.

This month’s

  • Dark Academia Tag

    If you’re reading this post when it goes up, then it’s my first day back at work! While I get back into the swing of things, my posting schedule may be sporadic. Anyway I found this tag on The Book Pusher’s channel and have been meaning to do it for a while. The tag was

  • The Book Interview Tag

    Hello everybody! How’s your quarantine going? Mine’s going all right, given the circumstances. Recently I was tagged by Isabelle of Nine Tale Vixen to do this tag and thought today was the perfect opportunity. It’s a fun way to share your reading tastes and other bookish thoughts with your readers. Let’s get started! Name/Blog Name

  • The Goodreads Tag

    Ah, Goodreads. The social media site designed for readers. Where else can you keep track of your reading and bury yourself in a humongous metaphysical TBR? Nowhere! Goodreads truly is one of a kind. And, naturally, it’s rife with book tag potential. So that’s what I’m going to be doing today. You know, in case

  • Google Translates Book Quotes

    The other day I did the Google Translates My Favorite Books meme. It was a lot of fun, so I thought I’d do it again— with a twist. This time I’ll be taking some book quotes and putting them through several layers of Google Translate and then back into English. For each book, I’ll provide

  • Google Translates My Favorite Books

    I’m a big fan of the YouTube Channel Translator Fails. Run by Malinda Kathleen Reese, each video is a song put through several layers of Google Translate and back into English. Then Reese performs the translated song. It’s pretty hilarious. I was pretty excited when I saw bloggers doing the same thing with their favorite

  • The Top 7 Best Books of 2018

    Recently, I was tagged on Twitter to post my four favorite books of 2018. I didn’t do it because, well, a couple problems. First of all, the lowest I am able to narrow my list down to is seven. Twitter only allows four pictures per Tweet. I suppose I could’ve added the other three in

  • “Thank U, Next” Book Tag

    So, I figure I should probably do this tag while it’s still relevant. I don’t want to write a big introduction, so just know that this tag is inspired by Ariana Grande’s new song “thank u, next.” Except instead of exes, it’s about books. That’s really all you need to know. Anyway… here’s the tag:

  • Top 5 Wednesday: Characters I’d Have Over for Friendsgiving

    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
