I finally did it. I finally read the book that the internet has been raving about for the last few years. This is the book that on YouTube I swear everyone was talking about a couple years ago, even those who don't read books. The minimalist movement really started to appeal to me a few … Continue reading Book Review: The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo

May 2020 Reading Wrap-up
I feel like 2020 is just divulving into chaos...why can't we all not be idiots and replace violence with love? Anyways, I will avoid everything crazy going on and focus on my reading this month. I had a pretty good month, reading 12 books (including two rereads). I'm also starting a big reread for the … Continue reading May 2020 Reading Wrap-up
Stay at Home Book Tag
Well, we're still here. I'm still stuck in my house and, for the most part, America is still in quarantine. So I figured I might as well do another book tag themed around staying at home. This one was originally created by Princess of Paperback on Youtube, and looked like a perfect tag to do … Continue reading Stay at Home Book Tag
Book Haul #5
It seems like forever since I did a book haul (I think it hasn't been since the beginning of the year). I guess I didn't have any reason to do it because I was so busy with this semester in college and then the bookstore closed down with the coronavirus. Basically, I bought a couple … Continue reading Book Haul #5

Book Review: Smoke Gets in Your Eyes by Caitlin Doughty
I've watched Caitlin's Youtube channel Ask a Motician for a few years (though I haven't kept up with the latest videos), and I've owned this book for almost as long. I actually had the opportunity to meet Caitlin a couple years ago when she did a speaking event at an art museum in Minneapolis, Minnesota. … Continue reading Book Review: Smoke Gets in Your Eyes by Caitlin Doughty
April 2020 Reading Wrap-up
This month was a little choppy for me concerning reading. I started strong, reading the majority of the ten books I read this month in the first two weeks of April. In fact, in the last two weeks I've read only three books. I'm not necessarily in a reading slump as much as now that … Continue reading April 2020 Reading Wrap-up

I was going to write another book tag today, but I couldn't resist this one, considering the state of affairs of the world right now. This book tag was created on Youtube by Our BookNook and when I saw it, I knew it would be perfect for this time. Must-Have - A book you *have* … Continue reading Quarantine Book Tag
Book Review: Little Darlings by Melanie Golding
This book was recommended to me by a friend, who just finished reading it and absolutely gushed at how good it was. I was a little hesitant going into the book, because it balances two genres: thriller (which is really hit or miss with me) and dark fantasy (which I usually love). However, after finishing … Continue reading Book Review: Little Darlings by Melanie Golding
