October 2020 Wrap-Up!

Hello hello! It's a bit late, but is it just me or did the end of October go by incredibly quickly? And now it's November 8. Like really, where did the time go. (I know where it went. We all were glued to our televisions for five days, fearing the end of the world. But…

The Cold & The Cozy: Books to Curl Up And Read This Winter

First of all, happy Winter Solstice everyone! Today is my last day of work before I am off for holidays, and I'm really looking forward to all the time I will be dedicating to relaxing, spending time with my family, but also curling up with a good book.  Similar to my Fall Recommendations, I've split…

Authors That Were Crucial to My Childhood (That Aren’t J.K. Rowling)

Like any other 21st century kid, Harry Potter formed the central pillar of my childhood. But there are a ton of other books and authors that I grew up reading, and loved nearly as much. Books have come so far, YA books especially, that a lot of books get left behind. So today I'm going…

Spring is time for new things…right?

After a good four and a half months, it's time to...change things up a bit! You thought I was quitting, didn't you? Well sorry Mom, but no. (Actually my mom has always supported me in my book-loving habit, as all good moms should.) Posting reviews is great, but sometimes I get behind. Mostly that's because…
