September Wrap-Up

Remember when in my August Wrap-Up I said, and I quote: "I am slowly getting back to posting more regularly"? Well, that was a fun one considering I haven't posted anything since then. I was confident I was going to have some time to blog in September, but finishing and then preparing to present my…

August Wrap-Up

August went quite better than expected. I was on vacation from my job for most of it so I had more time to focus on my internship, which I'm now unfortunately over with. I also got to mostly finish my master's thesis—which I feel like I've been talking about forever—and relax a bit. I'm also…

The Me and Music Tag

Morgan @ Morgan Is Reading Again tagged me to do this tag—originally created by Sophie @ Me and Ink—at the perfect moment. I'd been thinking that I really wanted to write another music-related post, but I wasn't sure what to write to integrate books with it (you know that's become one of my favourite challenges). So,…

Book Review: I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

As lots of people in their mid-twenties, I was a fan of iCarly back in the day. Sam was, hands down, my favourite character, so when I saw Jennette McCurdy had written a memoir, I simply had to read it. Today, I'm telling you what I thought of it (spoiler alert: it put me out…

One or Multiple POVs?

Today I would like to talk about different types of narrators in books, specifically about the one vs. multiple narrators debate. This is something I hadn't really payed all that much attention to until recently because I naively thought surely everyone liked multiple POVs better. In my brain there was no question that following more…

July Wrap-Up

Hi, hello, I am back! What a month July has been! I really wanted to keep being active in the blogsphere but, just like I mentioned could happen, it simply was impossible for me to find time to post or comment on everyone else's posts. It's been a month of balancing a job and an…

Mid Year Book Freak Out Tag

This tag is always one I enjoy because it's an opportunity to look back to the reading year and evaluate it. I was very happy that Morgan @ Morgan Is Reading Again tagged me to do it as I was already planning on writing it regardless! Best book you’ve read so far in 2022 It's…

June Wrap-Up

Sooo, I was very late to the party but I started June by finally catching Covid and having to cancel my birthday plans. I normally don't do anything to celebrate so of course the one year I decided to have a small gathering I'm unable to. Thankfully, the month improved fast as I finally got…

Can We Love a Book Written by a Bad Person?

Way back in January, I wrote a post about favourite books where I briefly touched on how the author of a book might impact our view on their work. The call to cancel problematic and controversial authors has been going strong for a long time now—to be point of there being lists with "authors to…

The Trope Tag

It's been a while since I last posted a tag, so today it's time for one. I was nominated by Naemi @ A Book Owl's Corner and I'm excited to try to come up with answers for these prompts. So without further ado, let's jump straight in! The Rules Mention the creator of the tag…
