I've done a couple blog posts in the last few weeks talking about the books I really enjoyed in 2020, but this post will be a bit different. I'm going to share some of my favorites for things outside of books. I guess you could look at this post as a wrap up of things … Continue reading Wrapping Up 2020 – My New Favorites

Book Review: All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque
I was forced to read this book for school this semester. I shouldn't be super negative about it, because it has been on my TBR long before I was assigned to read it for one of my history classes, but let's say I had mixed feelings about this book, more personal mixed feelings than I … Continue reading Book Review: All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque
The Monster Mash Book Tag
With Halloween just around the corner and me in a super fall mood, you know I have to do an October-themed book tag. When I found this tag, I knew it would be perfect for this spooky time of the year. I believe the original was created by Spine Breakers on their Youtube channel. Also, … Continue reading The Monster Mash Book Tag
A Poem for Fall…
I don't have a review for you today, so I'll probably just write two reviews next week.

I just love every poem I have read of hers, and … Continue reading A Poem for Fall…
Book Review: Life of Pi by Yann Martel
I'm a few years late in reading this book, after it got super popular around 2012 when the movie adaptation was released. This book was everywhere back then! And I'm not even exaggerating. You'd see ads and posters for it. The movie won a bunch of Academy Awards, and the book was featured in pretty … Continue reading Book Review: Life of Pi by Yann Martel

Photography Friday: A Frozen Lake
"A bitter wind, heavy with icy particles, whipped at my face, its howling forming the high notes of a symphony whose bass was played by swollen waves crashing into the piers of the bridges below." ― Théophile Gautier
Photo Friday: Fluff…
“I remember my childhood names for grasses and secret flowers. I remember where a toad may live and what time the birds awaken in the summer -- and what trees and seasons smelled like -- how people looked and walked and smelled even. The memory of odors is very rich.” ― John Steinbeck, East of … Continue reading Photo Friday: Fluff…
My Top 11 Chinese Dramas
It’s been so long since I did a post centering around foreign dramas. I did a post of Top 11 Korean Dramas and then promptly forgot to do any similar posts. I’m amazed I wrote that post in March of 2017, so over a year ago. Wow, how time flies. Anyway, I thought I’d continue … Continue reading My Top 11 Chinese Dramas
Blog Announcement: Camp NaNoWriMo 2018
I feel as if I'm shooting myself in the foot by making this announcement and committing to follow it up, especially with how busy I currently am as well as how I've had trouble keeping up with my blog as it is with only three/four posts a week. But I'm the type of person who … Continue reading Blog Announcement: Camp NaNoWriMo 2018
