Why I Love Friendships in Books So Much

August 17, 2020.Reading time 10 minutes.

Friends are so, so important. There is nothing, not even the relationship between siblings, as close as a best friend, someone you’ll tell all your darkest and deepest secrets to. With siblings, it’s not really a choice. I would take a bullet for my sister & brother without question. But I chose my best friends. […]

Thursday Thousand: Love and Magic on a Thursday

August 13, 2020.Reading time 37 minutes.

Oh goddess, I feel like breaking out in hives right now, I CAN’T BELIEVE I’M REALLY POSTING THIS. In February of 2019, I began a short project where I had to post a short story every week, on Thor’s Day, that had only one parameter: it had to be, had minimum, 1000 words long. It could be […]

Let’s Talk About Halloween

August 12, 2020.Reading time 5 minutes.

If you’re having a moment of double checking your calendar to confirm that it is, in fact, August, I’ve got some news for you. I celebrate Halloween for eleven months straight with a one-month break in between for Christmas, and this post is actually coming pretty late because I’ve been highkey stressing about this since […]

TTT: Books I’ve Loved, But Never Reviewed

August 11, 2020.Reading time 12 minutes.

I’m a big fan of this week’s That Artsy Reader Girl top ten topic. I mean, I’m always game to shout about books that I love, but don’t talk about a lot. I’m aiming to not just pick books I haven’t reviewed, but also ones that I haven’t ever really talked about on the blog. […]

#marywrites: Being Inspired

August 10, 2020.Reading time 16 minutes.

This post is not meant to call me out about the book I haven’t written yet, but that’s probably going to happen along the way. Because we’re not chatting any of my normal haunts today, but something I’ve only mentioned here or there. Recently, in one of my writer’s group workshops, while discussing the introduction […]

Bookshelf Tour: Urban Fantasy, Part II

TTT: Books With Colors in the Title

August 4, 2020.Reading time 8 minutes.

This week’s That Artsy Reader Girl topic is one of those ones that sounds super easy, right, but then you try to do it, and it’s sneaky hard! Books with colors in the title, like what? I’m only going to use books I’ve already read so I can scream about them appropriately, but damn, this […]

Taste is Subjective

August 3, 2020.Reading time 15 minutes.

I mean, it goes without saying, right? Or, it should, at least, go without saying that taste is subjective. I always feel wary of recommending any form of media to people because what I might think is amazing others might think is pretty subpar. Still, it’s a beautiful sort of relationship when you realize that […]

July Wrap-Up

July 31, 2020.Reading time 42 minutes.

This was a weird month for me, not gonna lie. I’ll talk about it more at the end, but I’m consistently feeling like I did nothing while actually having done a lot, so. I think a lot of that stems from the fact that I feel like I didn’t read a lot, but three of […]

TAG: How I Read

July 30, 2020.Reading time 11 minutes.

I saw this over on Zezee with Books, and honestly, I think I get most of my tags there, so thank you! The questions for this one are going to severely call me out in several different ways, and I am hyped for it. Let’s get controversial up in here! Do you have a certain […]
