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…

Revisiting My 2021 TBR – How Many of the Books Did I Manage to Read?

Hello friends, it's Vera here today. 💛 Something I've mentioned here before is that, as a mood reader, I'm horrible at following a to-read list. To avoid wasting my own time as well as to avoid being disappointed in myself, I don't tend to create TBR lists for myself. However, at the beginning of 2021,…

15 Book Covers With Hidden Faces

Hi everyone!  It’s Sabrina here, and today I’m sharing with you a list revolving around a book cover style that I love - hidden faces!   I find this cover style so fun and creative - though of course, some examples are better than others - and it reminds me of certain picture books I…

I’ll Be Reading Soon – A Library TBR

Hey everyone, it’s Sabrina!  Today’s post is a list of all the books I am on the waiting list for from my library.  It’s a TBR of sorts, though I have no idea how long it will take for these books to get to me - one of them I have been waiting for since…

Fanfiction Tropes I Love and How They Appear in Published Books

Hello friends! After falling in love with The Magnus Archives in 2020 - a podcast that will likely not end happily, at least for some of the characters - I discovered the wonderful world of fanfiction. Unlike many others, I didn't have a fanfiction era when I was a teenager, likely because I only started…

Five Star Predictions: Will These Books Live Up To Their Hype?

Hello friends! After loving working on my previous five star predictions posts, I knew I wanted to make another two-part series of my predictions, but I also knew that I wanted to mix it up a bit. So, instead of choosing four books I'm 1000% sure I'll love, I consulted my goodreads to-read list and…

21 Books I Want To Read In 2021

I rarely create myself concrete to-read lists, because - as a mood reader - I like to pick up whatever I'm in the mood for at that moment and I dislike following a pre-decided list. I think I have only one positive experience when I was able to complete a to-read list I set for…

My Library Surprised Me! Did It Work?

Hey, it’s Sabrina again!  I’ve been planning this post for quite some time now, but it has turned out vastly different to what I was hoping it would be.  A couple months ago, my library gave the option for its members to have boxes of books delivered to their home, since we weren’t allowed to…

Extremely Specific Tropes I Like and Dislike

Hello friends! I know I'm not the only blogger who has strong feelings about extremely specific tropes in books. In most cases, these are not 'big' tropes that influence the whole novel or the character arc - like the chosen one trope does, for example - rather, they are smaller instances or are just more…
