In 2019, I decided to read for quality over quantity. Combined with the fact that I’ve started reading more adult books and have gotten better at picking out books I think I’ll like, this has made for a great reading year. Unfortunately, there were still a few stinkers. The good news is there were far [...]

Bookending Winter: The Great Alaskan Race Tag
Bookending Winter is an event hosted by Sam of Fictionally Sam and Clo of Cuppa Clo in which book bloggers from all over get together to discuss books using summer themes. There are lots of great prompts I’m excited to respond to. Today’s prompt is brought to you by Heather of The Frozen Library. An [...]
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 [...]
March 2019 Wrap-Up
I’ve got to say, even though I’m not reading as many books as I used to, 2019 has been a really good reading year for me so far. March is no exception. This month I read four novels and two graphic novels/memoirs. And I didn’t rate anything below three stars. I also DNF-ed a book. [...]

This week’s topic is characters that embody your Hogwarts House. And it comes to no [...]
The 2019 Book Releases I’m Chomping at the Bit For
Technically speaking, I already did this post back in December. But I didn’t get to talk about all the books I wanted. Plus, I’ve found some more that I need, like, yesterday. I’m not going to waste time talking your head off. You’re here because you’re hoping to find some new books to get excited [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
The Love Triangle Game
So, it’s been a while since I’ve done a good old-fashioned game tag. This one was created by BookTuber Jesse the Reader. It’s not unlike the RIP It or Ship It Tag, in which you put a bunch or character names (from all walks of book) in a hat, jar, or some other kind of [...]
