My Favourite YA Book Villains
When thinking of your all-time favourite characters in stories, most people would say the heroine, or one of the array of colourful but overall ‘good’ members from the new-found family friend group, or even the furry/mystical being that dazzles us with being fierce or cute. Mine have always been villains. Even the most retched ones that make me hate their guts and want to curse their names. I think it’s their ability to draw out that emotion that makes me love ’em. The morally grey character has always been one that I am drawn towards. While reading is an absolutely wonderful escape, it also can mirror a realness in ourselves…

Autumn Reading Essentials
Now you know I love a themed/season-curated blog post, so I couldn’t just give you a normal reading essentials list, but an autumnal one.

5 Bookish Podcasts I Love
One of the things that has really helped my mental health and just my well-being overall is taking walks. In the past few months, I found it hard to find time and reasons to even leave the house.

I quickly realized that I needed to step away physically from being indoors all the time and make some time to breath some fresh air, or even just…

Here are some of my favourite spooky and not-so-spooky but definitely thrilling reads: The Witch Haven By Sasha Peyton Smith I read this book last month and don’t know how I never knew about this book! I saw it looking so beautiful on the shelf and practically bought it without even reading the back cover. It is a perfect blend of intrigue and creepy without being too creepy. I won’t post the full…

The Autumnal Bookish Tag
I absolutely love doing bookish tags as much as I love reading everyone else’s answers. With autumn being my favourite season, it comes as no surprise that I love autumnal inspired bookish tags more than anything else. Also no surprise I did one previously: The Cosy Autumn Book Tag But since then, it has been two long years, and I wanted to do another one except this one is a little different. I saw so many wonderful book tags that I wanted to try, but there were so many good ones I couldn’t decide, so I did a combination of a few. So here is my version of this book…
