Reading and Blog Goals for 2022

2021 was a bit of a messy year for me in terms of reading and focus. I had some really good moments/memories like going on a road trip with my best friend and getting back into art. Reading though was a real challenge for me mentally and definitely not a struggle I want to continue...

Cozy Christmas Tag

We are coming up on another holiday, and it felt like a good time to do another book tag! This one is the Cozy Christmas tag by callmeaftercoffee on YouTube! Whether you celebrate Christmas, or the other many holidays I hope everyone has a happy and healthy holiday season. Twinkling Lights - what is the...

Books I’m Thankful For

Around Thanksgiving I usually do a book recommendations I'm thankful for post, but this year I thought I'd mix it up. This isn't truly Thanksgiving as we now start the big Christmas shopping season and start putting up decorations officially, but it's still a season to be thankful for books and the ways they impact...

Do I have that Book Challenge

This one might be strange to put up on a blog, considering that it started on youtube and involves being timed.  If you want to see the original, here is the link.  The time you're given is 8 mins, which spoiler alert, I went over.  I think in the end it was probably closer to...

Red Rising by Pierce Brown {2nd Reading Book Review}
