lit review: this is how you lose the time war
hello again! i’m trying to think of more content to write about, but i’m at a loss. maybe i’ll do some storytimes? we’ll see. watch me post for the first time again in a month from now. but, today at least, i’m excited to review the book this is how you lose the time war…

comparing the books i’ve read in quarantine thus far
it’s been 49 days since i’ve been home. every day, i wake up and take a walk around my neighborhood before i settle down for online school (i officially finished my semester yesterday). since then, i’ve finished a grand total of five books (on my sixth now) and they’ve all been wildly different. so, i…

lit review: ready player one
so, before i begin, i’d like to apologize for my lack of posts! i know my four followers don’t mind too much, but, regardless, the only way to a loyal readership (which is a big goal of mine) is to be posting consistently! so, to hopefully end this hiatus, i’ll be posting a short, mostly…

lit review (kind of): 1984
since i’ve never reviewed a classic novel on this blog, it seems quite intimidating to start now, especially since classic novels are put on this inscrutable pedestal above all other novels. and, after finishing 1984, it seems nearly impossible to give it a rating, but if anything, let me say that this novel is not…

why borrow over buying?
i’ve had my library card since seventh grade. since getting it over six years ago, i’ve probably checked out over a hundred books (which is impressive considering i lived at school an hour and a half away for eight months out of the year the past five years). i love my local library, a fact…

lit review: worthy
so, this review is going to be shorter than usual. why? because i don’t have a lot to say about this book because it didn’t have much to say either. well, maybe it had something to say, but the way it said it wasn’t my cup of tea. my rating: ★★☆☆☆ plot line: linden is…

lit review: genuine fraud
i’m back with another book review! for a blog that was initially supposed to be all about my reading, i’ve really been slacking. since the beginning of july, i’ve only read four and a half books! anyways, when i saw this book in my local library, i was immediately drawn to the cover (obviously), but…

ya fiction is underrated!
now, i’m still in the demographic of ya fiction because i’m a young adult, but, as i’ve gone through high school, i’ve learned one thing: ya fiction doesn’t get enough credit! and before you click off of this post, just hear me out for a second. i had one ya fiction book on all of…
