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

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

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? Imagine the following scenario: Even though you hate driving, you are forced to get your own car because you've been sent to teach in a very mountainous area and couldn't find … Continue reading The Tour de France Book Tag
Happy Friday, everyone! It's summer solstice week, so obviously, I'm doing the Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag! Tradition is tradition, after all.

One of … Continue reading Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag 2022
Happy Friday, everyone! After an eventful week filled with school, lesson preparation, insanely hot weather, and me narrowly avoiding a kitchen inferno because I decided cooking and simultaneously catching up on Eurovision content was the ultimate time management hack, I've decided I'm too tired to be trusted with any creative ideas of my own and … Continue reading The Trope Tag
Happy Friday, everyone! Today, I'm here with a tag I got so excited about that putting it off longer was simply impossible! If you know me at all, you'll know that about 80% of my free time is poured into anything book- or music-related. (The remaining 20% are reserved for family, friends, pets, food, and … Continue reading The Chapters & Melodies Tag

“Long before we discovered that he had fathered two children by two different women, one in Drimoleague and one in Clonakilty, Father James Monroe stood on the altar of the Church of Our Lady, Star of the Sea, in the parish of Goleen, West Cork, and denounced my mother as a whore.” First line in The … Continue reading The Know Your Buddy Tag || featuring Line @ First Line Reader

Happy Fourth of Advent, everyone! Yes, I realize it's not Friday, but I'm posting anyway 😁 Thanks to evil COVID, which is still very successfully destroying all of my travel plans, I've had a bit of spare time on my hands, and I thought, Why not channel that into getting caught up on my tag … Continue reading The Read-Write Contest
Happy Friday, everyone! As has become tradition on this blog, I'm doing The End of the Year Book Tag way later than it's meant to be done 😁 It just doesn't feel like the end of the year until it's December and properly cold outside. There needs to be snow! And a Christmassy atmosphere! Anyway, … Continue reading The End of the Year Book Tag 2021
Happy Friday, everyone! Honestly, it feels so great to be back among the lazy! This week, I did pretty much nothing apart from sleeping, reading, music, cooking, and eating, and it was absolutely wonderful! Yup, this is definitely a pretty accurate representation of my life right now 🤣 The only thing that is putting a … Continue reading The Liebster Award Mash-Up Post
Happy Friday, everyone! Truth be told, I've had a horrendous week. I just lost my grandfather, and since everything happened so suddenly, I didn't make it in time to see him before he died. Which means that, to distract myself from dwelling too much on things I am powerless to change, I thought we could … Continue reading The Currently Reading Book Tag
Happy Friday, everyone! After the absolute fiasco that was last week, this week has turned out a whole lot better!

Happy Friday, everyone! With the UEFA European Football Championship currently ongoing, soccer fever has Europe well in its clutches - and I am no exception. Seriously, I'm severely sleep deprived at the moment, because watching all these matches has meant I've had to postpone other things - such as homework, thesis work, or writing blogposts … Continue reading The Football Book Tag
Happy Friday, everyone! The weather has finally gotten warm over here, so I've been able to spend a lot more time out in the sun.

Although I'm also starting to get a bit scared of finals, … Continue reading The Aesthete Blogger Award
Happy Friday, everyone! I know I've been extremely absent from the blogosphere these past few weeks, but I'm still alive! I'm just still very busy with all the coding for my thesis.
