It’s THAT time of year again. The time of year that’s both deeply loved and passionately hated by students everywhere.

It’s September! Do you know what that means?
It means that the BEST season has finally arrived, with the months of September, October, November, and December (aka the best months of the year). I am so excited!
Do you ever get that feeling, while reading a book, where you’re completely absorbed in the story and you just can’t put it down? It’s almost like eating delicious food, or being wrapped in a warm blanket. You don’t want it to end, because you’re just in the MOOD for reading.
Right now, I think we can all agree that it would be nice to get out of the house.
I have always loved to travel, though I haven’t yet been out of the United States, and quarantine has only increased my wanderlust
I am ashamed of myself.
First because I failed to read this book sooner, and second because I’ve been complaining about quarantine nonstop without truly realizing that my life is NOT that bad.
Is this a discussion post?
I was recently thinking about how I want to expand the kinds of books I read, and that gave me this idea.
Last week I posted Part 1 of Reacting to my Old Writing, in which I read the first half of my middle school magnum opus. Go check it out before you read this post.
Get ready for some deep questions to be answered and some tea to be spilled.
I’ve been planning- or rather, procrastinating- getting back into creative writing for a while. I used to be really into it; I wanted to be a writer since I was five and wrote my first “book”, but when I started high school I kind of fell out of inspiration (if that phrasing makes any sense).
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how CREATIVE the entire concept of this book is? I really should read more sci-fi.
I was nominated for this tag by Sweaters & Raindrops! She has a really cool book blog with lots of great reviews and interesting bookish posts. (And a great blog name!)
To whoever created this award, I love the name and picture! The Sunshine Blogger Award- it just sounds so… summery and cheerful. I desperately needed some cheerfulness right now.
Well… that was unexpected. In every sense of the word.
Is it just me, or did July feel like the longest month we’ve had this year?
It felt like one long time vacuum. What did I even do this month?
I NEED to meet Holly Jackson. Right now. This woman is a genius.
Another blogging award??? Thank you so much to Writing for Christ for nominating me! (Sorry I took so long to write this post)
It’s the middle of July, it’s been 100 degrees every day for the past week, and I am pretty much done with summer. But still, I can’t resist reviewing this irresistibly summery book from the quintessential summer contemporary author, because if I can’t have a summery summer at least I can read about one.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that every evil dictator was once an ambitious, self-centered and clueless teen who really, truly hated cabbage.
You’re reading a great story. The plot is wonderful, you’re completely absorbed, you are convinced this will be your next 5-star read… until it happens. The author uses THAT trope. That irritating, cliche, hackneyed trope that you cannot stand. Suddenly all the fervor is gone from your reading, and you sigh when you realize that here is yet another book to go on that 3-4 star pile.
A New England prep school, a murder mystery, the remarkable descendants of famous literary figures… Intriguing Premises 101.
