Ah yes, the age old argument. What is the perfect number of books for a series? Or perhaps we don’t need a series at all, and we should just have all standalones forever (okay, no thanks, though). The truth is, there is no right or wrong to this, it’s all down to preference and circumstance, […]

Faeries are murderous, conniving little backstabbers. I really don’t know what to tell you guys. We grew up with Tinkerbell, and […]

Look, I recognize this is basically just another TTT post, but on a Thursday, but I have so many favorite things that I want to scream about, so here we are. I think we’re all also on the same page about my cover love, as well. I 100% will buy something based on the cover […]

Way Too Fantasy just did this super fun tag, and it was originally created by Keeping Tabs on YouTube. I always like to try to do these without actually having access to my bookshelves because why the heck not, so this will definitely be interesting! Do you have a book with deckled edges? In all […]

This week’s Top 5 Tuesday, which I’m making into a Top 10, is about books we don’t talk about enough, and boy oh boy is that a topic near and dear to my heart, so thank you, Shanah! August’s list of topics and participants can be found here, and the September topics were just released. […]
