    Get to Know Ya Book Tag

    Hey, everyone! Today I’m doing something a little different and I’m doing my first tag. I’ve been blogging for about three and a half months now, but you still don’t know much about me and I thought this was a fun way to get to know me a little bit better: through books! I saw Katie @ Whispering Pages do this and it looks really fun. Favorite Book of All Time I’m always terrible at answering this question. I have to choose ONE? I’m never able to choose one, so I’m going to do a few of my all-time favorite books. Wonder ~ This book is such a heart-warming story…

    Let’s Talk Bookish: Diversity in Books

    Hello, happy Friday! I hope you’re doing well. I’m really excited for today’s LTB topic, so let’s get into it. Let’s Talk Bookish is a weekly meme created by Rukky @ Eternity Books and is hosted by Rukky and Dani @ Literary Lion where we discuss various topics and share our opinions. Today’s topic is Diversity in Books (suggested by Rukky.) What do you think is the meaning of diverse? Diversity can have multiple definitions. It’s difference between a variety of things; some common ones that appear in books are different races, ethnicities, sexual orientation. Diversity encompasses many more though, like disabled people, people with different backgrounds, social status, education,…

    WWW Wednesday #10

    Hello, everyone! I hope you’re doing well. I can’t believe we’re already halfway through March. That daylight savings change kind of threw me off. It does not feel like it should be this late. And yes, say hello to my dog, Rocket, in the featured image 😃. He’s very interested in his book. No, he’s actually quite dumb. Anyways, I’m back with another update on my reading. WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Sam @ Taking in a World of Words and how it works is I answer three questions about what I’m currently reading, what I recently finished reading, and what I’m planning to read next. The…

    Top Ten Tuesday: Books On My Spring 2021 TBR

    Hello, everyone! I’m you’re doing well. It’s been about a month since I’ve done a Top Ten Tuesday, so I thought I’d do one today. You Have a Match by Emma Lord I’ve been seeing this book mentioned on a lot of people’s blogs, and the comments have been positive, so I thought I’d give it a try as well. The summary sounds really interesting. “A new love, a secret sister, and a summer she’ll never forget. When Abby signs up for a DNA service, it’s mainly to give her friend and secret love interest, Leo, a nudge. After all, she knows who she is already: Avid photographer. Injury-prone tree…

    The Missing Piece of Charlie O’Reilly Author: Rebecca K.S. AnsariGenre: Fantasy, Mystery, Middle GradeSeries: None Synopsis: “Charlie O’Reilly is an only child. Which is why it makes everyone uncomfortable when he talks about his brother. Liam, his eight-year-old kid brother, who, up until a year ago, slept in the bunk above Charlie, took pride in being as annoying as possible, and was the only person who could make Charlie laugh until it hurt. Then came the morning when the bunk, and Liam, disappeared forever. No one even remembers him—not Charlie’s mother, who has been lost in her own troubles; and not Charlie’s father, who is gone frequently on business trips.…

    Let’s Talk Bookish: Do You Run a BookTube? Why/Why Not?

    Hey, everyone, happy Friday! It’s been a few weeks since I’ve done an LTB, so I’m back with another one. I don’t run a BookTube. I only recently found out that there was such a thing. Since I only started blogging a few months ago, booktubing isn’t something that has ever crossed my mind as a possibility. If you only blog why have you chosen blogging over booktubing? The main reason why I don’t booktube is because then that would involve revealing my face online. I do not wish to do that, mostly because of internet safety and the fact that I’m just not that comfortable with doing it. Another…

    International Women’s Day ~ Strong Female Characters in YA Literature

    Hello, everyone! I know that International Women’s Day was two days ago, so I’m late for this, but I saw Ritz @ Living, Loving and Reading do a post like this and I thought I would do my own version. So today, I have a list of strong female characters in YA literature. Alanna of Trebond ~ The Song of the Lioness Alanna is such a great character! She’s strong and she isn’t afraid to stand up for what she believes in. She’s ambitious and doesn’t let people get in the way of what she wants to accomplish. “Alan, you seem to think we won’t like you unless you do…
