Wow. I sat down with this book over the past few days and I couldn’t put it down. Honestly, I would try and use the bathroom and hold it for an hour only succumbing to the excruciating pain of holding it for that long. I’m lucky it’s the beginning of the year and there wasn’t…

Wow, 2017 felt like a whirlwind. I hit a ton of different milestones, came to some interesting decisions, and will be starting my new year with a different career path. While the world was in shambles, 2017 treated me pretty well and I’m thankful to be starting off 2018 with some great plans. It was…

Goodbye, new reads that I’m slightly excited about but not enough to actually want to read and not hoard the book…

Stories about young people who fight for what they believe is right even if that means sacrificing everything. Good thing I stumbled across WARCROSS by Marie Lu. Here’s some…

I don’t know about you, but I need a break from the world. Sometimes the news or my life or even my reads get so heavy that I need to step away from everything and just enjoy myself. Self care is a real thing and something I try to always keep in mind. That’s why…

Hi everyone! I’ll be brief and I’m going to be honest with you. Lately, I haven’t felt like writing anything. I have felt a sickening pressure to write and it really just gives me the worst writer’s block. It’s a pressure I put upon myself, but when you write nonstop and you also work a…

November seemed to go quickly, but also jam packed with news, articles, and great reads. I had a blast this November and here are some of the highlights. Thanksgiving at my in laws I’ve never had Thanksgiving at anyone else’s house before. I’ve always had it with my family with the same meal and the…
