When choosing these books, I mostly focused … Continue reading Top Ten Tuesday: Settings I Want to Visit
NOPE Book Tag
The NOPE book tag was created by The Farah Project, and I first saw it on Bubbly Book Nerd! Figured I would keep the unpopular opinions going after Friday's post.

So with a healthy dose of … Continue reading Friday Favorites: Ships I just don’t Understand

Why I Don’t Use Stars in Reviews
If you are brand new to my blog, first of all, hello! Welcome to my (usually) happy little corner of the book world.
