My Favorite Feelings/Moments From Book Blogging (and why I still blog)

Blogging is... a lot of things. It can be really frustrating at times, but it can be really amazing sometimes. I feel like this is my mantra and I've repeated this 100x over, but blogging takes a lot of emotional and physical energy. However, I'm still here for very specific reasons: Free books. I'm kidding. I'm …

Things That Book Bloggers Shouldn’t Feel Bad For (aka why I’m a bookish hypocrite)

I've always had so many thoughts on how the book community is an always-growing community, and how that stresses me out... a lot. There are always new posts every day, and then I always need to be writing new posts all day, and I need to be reading and writing reviews for all the books I need to …

A Smol Recap of Every Month in 2018

Let's first review my "year overview posting etc" and also it starts from February because I'm writing this in January and I don't know how to make it show other months so let's pretend January didn't happen!

My Goals for 2019 (ft. the books I need to read this year)

Will I accomplish these goals? Probably not. I was going to make this post analyzing my goals for 2018 and then setting my goals for 2019, but then I realized that I didn't actually make any goals for 2018 so that's coooooool. (clearly, I'm so good at blogging) These goals are going to be a …

Things I Want to See in the Book Community

Look, I love the book community. There are so many things to love about it from the amazing people within to all of the books (!!!) but also... we can always improve. Does this mean the book community is bad? No! But there are still negative features of the book community that I honestly wish …

How Being a Book Blogger Affects My Reader Life

Book blogging is life-changing. Well, maybe not life-changing for everyone. But it's definitely changed my reading life significantly, for a number of reasons. Not all of them are good. In fact, a lot of them include me crying over books but let's ignore that!!!  i know a LOT of the anticipated releases. If I wasn't a …

May 2018 Recap // Reading Slump & Kind of Being Productive (??)

 I think we can all agree that my biggest accomplishment this month was actually posting.  (Except for the last week. Let’s forget about that.) But I started to write my posts early!!* And I commented to some of my comments! I still have a lot of comments to reply to, and I didn’t even start …

Some Tired & Overused Discussion Topics

It can be hard to think of ideas to write posts about. First, depending on your inspiration, you have to make sure that you're not just... plagiarizing from other bloggers. (I made a post about similar ideas v.s plagiarizing if you want to see that!!) You also have to make it a topic that you …
