In the midst of my re-read of The Series of Unfortunate Events, I though it was fitting to choose one of the Baudelaire orphans to make a playlist for this week. I chose the oldest Baudelaire orphan, Violet, who is actually probably my favorite! When I read the books in middle school, I always admiredRead More
A Series of Unfortunate Re-Reads: Part 2
I am absolutely flying through these books! While this isn’t particularly surprising, as I’m a fast reader and these books aren’t super long, I’ll probably slow down a bit as the books get longer towards the end (like most children’s series). My goal is to hopefully finish my complete re-read of the series by theRead More

It’s music Monday! At least, that’s the goal I’m working toward: a new playlist every Monday. This week, given that we just got a trailer for the much anticipated movie coming out next year, my playlist is dedicated to Wade Watts.

My Anticipated YA August Releases
It seems like 2017 has been killing it so far in the young adult department, with releases like The Hate U Give, History is All You Left Me, and Goodbye Days, and by the looks of it, it’s just going to keep getting better. Not only do we have a new John Green novel comingRead More

Character Playlist: Spider-Man
Perhaps a bit different from my other playlists, but I’ve been reading some of the original Spider-Man comics published in the 1960s–and I’m absolutely obsessed with the new Spider-Man movie (have you seen it yet?). Spider-Man has probably always been my favorite superhero, so in honor of the new movie, and the fact that TomRead More
I’m Back!
It’s been a while since I made a post, simply because I was travelling everywhere in June and life has gotten pretty busy in July. But–now that things are starting to calm down a bit, I’ve decided to pick back up again. I’ve got quite a few books I haven’t reviewed, so I’ll get caughtRead More
