Today’s Topic: Changes in my reading life Happy Tuesday! Today’s topic was difficult. I honestly hate these open ended topics because they cause me to sit and stare at the screen while having no clue what to do. After much staring I decided to share a few books I’ve read this year from genres I […]
HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG Hi everyone! It has been yet another hectic week and I got a grand total of zero books completed (but I officially DNF’d one). I feel like I’m in a horrible slump where I keep starting books but can’t finish them. Y’all send me all the good vibes to get back […]
Happy Saturday, everyone! This week has been another doozy, but I’m super excited to be back on the blog with a super fun tag. I saw this tag at Finding Wonderland. Apparently this started on Booktube, but thankfully Rissi has brought it to the bloggers! I feel like some people would definitely ball me a […]

Today’s Topic: Top Ten Seven Favorite Bookmarks Happy Tuesday! Today’s topic was pretty hard for me! I don’t often buy bookmarks, I just kind of end up with them. The one shop I absolutely LOVE seems to have gone away from selling bookmarks now so I had to set off on a search. Click the […]
HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG Hi everyone! Well, it has been another hectic, emotionally draining week and I haven’t gotten a single book read from start to finish. I did start reading The Deathless Girls and I’m honestly not sure if I like it so far. I didn’t think I’d finish it this week, but alas. […]
Happy Saturday, everyone! Over the last month I didn’t watch quite as much as the previous month. There was just SO much going on! Luckily, I didn’t watch anything I hated. There wasn’t as much spooky in spooky month as expected. Instead there was a bit of nostalgia and an evil(ish) queen, among other things. […]

Today’s Topic: Books That Give Off CHRISTMAS VIBES Happy Tuesday! Today was supposed to be about books that give off autumn vibes, but I’m feeling rebellious and I’m READY for Christmas! Yeah, I’m one of those people. Thanksgiving gets one day at the end of November but Christmas season has begun! These books definitely are […]
HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG Hi everyone! This week has once again been super busy and stressful. You may have noticed that I’ve continued to be scarce around the blog. It’s hard to focus on posting (or reading) when there’s so much anxiety about everything else. At least I know it’s something lots of you can […]
Happy November, bookworms! It has been a rough week full of stress and anxiety, but I was determined to post more than twice this week. To keep things as fun as I could, I wanted to talk about movies that I love, but haven’t read the books they’re based on. Shame, I know! Here are […]
Today’s Topic: Spooky Book Covers Happy Tuesday! Today is a Halloween freebie! Since I’ve spent several days this month talking about various Halloween topics, I decided that this week I’d go with super spooky book covers. Continue at your own risk!

HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG Hi everyone! It has been another wild and crazy week in our house and I’ve accomplished not very much around the blogosphere. We had appointments almost every day and next week is shaping up to be pretty much the same. I really, truly love and appreciate you guys for staying with […]
Let’s continue spooky season with TV villains! I have a feeling that some people will disagree with my choices, so let me explain. To me, a favorite villain has to be one that I don’t just hate. If a villain is 100% despicable with no redeeming qualities, I don’t love them. They aren’t a fave. […]

Today’s Topic: Books I’d Give Different Titles To Happy Tuesday! I was actually pretty intimidated by this week’s topic, but I ended up having a lot of fun with it! I decided to go with ten books I really didn’t love and give them titles I felt would be more fitting. I can’t wait to […]
HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG Hi everyone! It has certainly been one of those weeks – the busy kind that are so overwhelming you can’t find the energy to do much else (you know, like reading, blogging, etc.). I’ve had appointments scheduled every single day this week and Saturday was crammed full of candle making and […]
Early last year I shared my three favorite podcasts at the time. Since then some things have stayed the same, but some have changed. I thought a year and a half was plenty of time to share my updated top three list! As you will see, I definitely have a favorite kind of listen. LAST […]

Today’s Topic: Extraordinarily Weird Book Titles Happy Tuesday! I will admit up front that I legitimately had no idea what to do with today’s topic. What does it mean? What constitutes extraordinary?? So I went with books from my read and TBR lists that have extraordinarily weird titles! A House at the Bottom of a […]
HAPPENINGS OFF THE BLOG Hi everyone! Spooky season is in full swing and I have SO many horror movies to watch! Unfortunately things have been way too busy in my house to sit still for very long. My candle shop has been having a sale and I am overwhelmed. 🙂 I can’t wait to wrap […]

Welcome to another day of Spooky Month™ in which we talk more about one of my favorite genres. In the last few days there has been a LOT of talk on Twitter about how YA needs a resurgence of good YA horror. This has offended some people and inspired lots of recs to prove good […]
