I saw that Angelica of The Book Cover Girl did a post about this recently and thought it was a cool discussion post. We often talk about the authors we love, but what about the ones we’ve given up on? There are several authors I’m pretty sure I’m throwing in the towel on. I don’t [...]

Unpopular Opinions Book Tag: Take 2
It’s my two-year blogiversary! It’s hard to believe I’ve been running this blog for two whole years. Where has the time gone? To celebrate this momentous occasion, I thought I’d take another swing at the first post I ever wrote— the Unpopular Opinions Book Tag. That’s right, I started my blog by potentially immediately alienating [...]
Fall Out Boy Book Tag
Music and literature are my two great loves. As such, I love tags that combine the two. This tag takes Fall Out Boy songs and forms questions out of them. My emo heart loves Fall Out Boy, so I’ve been excited to do this tag since I found it. And today is the day I [...]

Abhor Me: A Review of “Restore Me” by Tahereh Mafi
Official Summary: Juliette Ferrars thought she'd won. She took over Sector 45, was named the new Supreme Commander, and now has Warner by her side. But she's still the girl with the ability to kill with a single touch—and now she's got the whole world in the palm of her hand. When tragedy hits, who will [...]
July 2018 Wrap-Up
This month has easily been one of the best reading months I've had all year. I finally feel like I'm hitting my stride again. Not only did I read more than I have been, but the content was overall pretty good. It's enough to remember why I was once such a big reader— it's fun! [...]
