we're all mad here
Much like last week, I’m feeling some kind of way lately, which is going to resolve itself next week in a summer break, but, until then, we’re doing another tag! Once again, thank you to Zezee with Books for their amazing collection of book tags, which has kept me afloat these past couple of weeks.…

Disclaimer: I’m mostly talking about YA here. I can probably count on one hand how many adult fantasies I’ve read in the last decade, although none of those few had men for their MCs, either. I truly don’t think that if I had to put together a top ten fantasy books that feature men MCs,…

Yes, everyone in the world is doing this tag right now, and it definitely gave me a mid-year complete panic when I was looking through others, which of course meant that I had to share that panic with you! I’ve seen a lot of people do it, but the most recent one (at the time…

Okay, here’s the deal. At the end of May, I talked about why I occasionally do book buying bans and how they’re actually really helpful for me. At the beginning of this year, I threw away my handwritten TBR list that was organized chronologically by when I’d bought something. It was bringing me a lot…

I have been vibing fantasy tomes lately. I definitely go through phases where I just want some light fantasy and end up reading four Shadowhunters in a row, or I just can’t stand the thought of trying to figure out a magic system, so I swallow a heaping pile of contemporaries. But lately? I don’t…

Alright, here’s the deal. Karou from Laini Taylor’s Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy is forever just sitting inside of my heart, longing for me to shout about her (KAROUUUUUUUU) like the good old days (what, earlier this year?), and I miss her fiercely. I’ve never quite loved a character like I loved Karou, and…

Previously: Part 1. I did a lot better in the second half of June, and I think we all know why that is. Hey, remember that time when I was like, oh man I’m gonna read every Shakespeare ever, and I’m going to do three a week for thirteen weeks, and I’m going to post…

Welcome to Monday Musings, a series where I review books that I read pre-end of 2017, when I started writing wrap-ups, talk about characters or topics that aren’t as relevant, or sometimes a surprise non-bookish thing. Man, this list is kind of ridiculous. I like to do this thing where I read the first book…
