I think book tags are a great way to get book recommendations and also to get to know the person behind the blog a little better! I’ve done several different ones by now, so I hope you can find one that suits your interests. I also include my yearly favorites and least favorites in this category – they’re a popular thing to talk about in the new year, so that’s kind of like a tag, right?
Happy Saturday, everyone! Although you probably don't need a math degree to realize that 5/12 is actually closer to two quarters than one quarter, we're doing The Quarter Year Crisis Book Tag today anyway! Why? Well, because Morgan @ Morgan Is Reading Again tagged me to do it, and, despite me having procrastinated on tags … Continue reading The Quarter Year Crisis Book Tag 2024

Happy Saturday, everyone! The time has finally come for lots of complaining! 🤗 Not that I don't grumble and whine about the hardships of my life on a regular basis anyway, but there's just something so inherently satisfying about writing a wholly negative post and ranting about all of the awful books you've read in … Continue reading My Least Favorite and Most Disappointing Books of 2023
Happy January, everyone! It's time to spread some start-of-the-year cheer and get into my favorite books I discovered these past twelve months!

Let me tell you, though - curating … Continue reading My Favorite Books of 2023
Happy Saturday, everyone! You know how I proudly boasted last year that I was finally doing The End of the Year Book Tag when it was meant to be done, instead of about three months late?

Happy Saturday, everyone! Since I just lugged my stuff 300 kilometers across the country and am suffering from severe Alps-deprivation in addition to complete and utter moving-exhaustion, I figured I could use a little help with my post today and get part of it from totally reliable online "Which book character am I?" quizzes! Being … Continue reading Am I Really That Character?
Happy Saturday, everyone! The waiting has come to an end! (If you even still remember that I promised you this post, that is...

Happy Saturday, everyone! Although we're well past summer solstice week, it's finally time for my Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag! 🤗 Created in 2012 by Ely and Chami over on BookTube, it has become a traditional way for the book community to wrap-up the first half of its reading year, and, of course, I'm joining in!

Happy Saturday, everyone! After surviving lots of paper-writing, exam-grading, and a parent-teacher conference that had been heinously lurking in the week after Easter break, I'm back right on time to celebrate my blogiversary! Or one of my blogiversaries, anyway... 😅 I technically created this blog on January 16th, 2017, but since I barely ever posted … Continue reading The Hogwarts Course Book Tag
Happy Saturday, everyone! After a truly horrendous week of dizzy spells, coughing blood, and jabbing COVID tests up my already super sore nose because I felt sure my symptoms must mean I had to test positive eventually - SPOILER ALERT: I didn't - I've decided that I need a bit of a break from writing … Continue reading Reacting To Five-Star Reviews of Horrible Books I’ve Read These Past Few Years
Happy Saturday, everyone! We've looked at my favorite books, we've looked at my least favorite books, but what we haven't looked at yet is how much I read, what I read, and how well I did at achieving the bookish goals I set for myself in 2022! (Sure, technically you could figure out most of … Continue reading 2022 Wrap-Up || Bookish Stats, Goal Check-In, 2023 Goals

Happy Friday, everyone! I'm here!! A few hours later than usual, sure, but better late than never, right?

Happy Friday, everyone! After a thoroughly chaotic work week, I'm not really on top of anything right now, so randomness it is! Who doesn't love a bit of chaos every once in a while? (Let's just quietly ignore that I said I would give you my final Realm of the Elderlings review today 🙃 That … Continue reading The Randomness Tag
Happy Friday, everyone! After the absolutely horrendous week I've had, I have decided bicycles are by far the most superior mode of transportation. Why?
