Reviewing In My Dreams I Hold A Knife

Hi everyone, it’s Sabrina!  Today I’m here to chat about a book I read recently - In My Dreams I Hold A Knife by Ashley Winstead.  I believe there are no spoilers in this review, however there are some leading statements that might make it easier to predict events of the book - so if…

10+ Booktubers I Love

Hi, it’s Sabrina here!  For today’s post, I’m talking about some of the booktubers I love!  I have a slightly complicated relationship with booktube* (and Youtube in general) because I tend to go through phases of watching a lot and then watching nothing at all.  Right now, I’m not watching as much as usual, but…

Recommending Ten Excellent Audiobooks

Hello friends! Today, I (Vera) am here with another addition to my audiobook recommendations series, and I'm really excited to share these titles with you all.

Did I Read More From These Authors? Revisiting A 2014 Blog Post

Hi there!  It’s Sabrina, and today I’m adding to my “revisiting old posts” series with another old Top Ten Tuesday!  I’ve previously done this sort of post two times: here and here.  In both those instances, the goal was to see if I actually read the books I plan to read, and the same is…

Book Recommendations For Songs I’ve Been Obsessed With Recently

Hello friends! It's Vera here today, and I brought you a post that was super-fun to put together. Recently, I found quite a lot of new songs / artists that I fell in love with and kept listening to over and over again. I wanted to share these songs with you in some way, so…

My All Time Favorite Pieces of Media

Hello friends, it's Vera here today! About two years ago, I wrote a post dedicated to my all time favorite pieces of media. I knew that, despite their name, my all time favorites would keep changing, so my plan was to revisit the post in a couple of years and make an updated list that…

An Appreciation of Our Favorite Book Bloggers

Hello friends! We're happy to say that we are back after taking a small hiatus. We decided to come back on the 24th of April, as this day marks three years since the start of Wordy and Whimsical. It's been fun - if sometimes a bit exhausting - to build our little bookish corner on…

Hi everyone! Today we have a bit of sad news, which is that Wordy and Whimsical will be going on hiatus for a month.  With both of us busier than ever and with the ongoing stresses of life in 2022, right now we’ve realised that taking a short break is the best decision for the time…
