Here's the deal with JK Rowling.
Look, I don’t need to go into why exactly JK Rowling is problematic. Plenty of people have already written explanations far better than I ever could. JK Rowling is transphobic. And if you disagree, you likely are too, despite any good intentions. We have to call things what they are. An old image of books piled beneath the window in my teenage bedroom. Worn Harry Potter books proudly on…
It’s me again (2024 ed.)
I’ve been missing the blog a lot recently. Although I create online content in my day job and love it, there’s nothing like creating in a space that is wholly your own. I used to dive into 9th Street as an outlet for both my Type A traits and my creativity, but one of those things has largely been satisfied from a slightly more corporate approach to creation (aka the day job). And boy does it…

Hardcover vs Paperback: Basic Differences
Hardcover vs Paperback: Basic Differences
Ah, yes–hardcover vs paperback. The age-old debate. Hardcover vs Paperback: My Opinion My personal preference in the hardcover vs paperback debate? I prefer paperback, but if it is an author I love to support, I go ahead and buy their new releases in hardback when I have the money, just because I want to add to those release week sales. Ditto if it’s a title I just can’t wait to get my hands…

How to Read Books Online for Free
How to download free books! My favorite places :)
Because you can actually read books online for free. (Legally.) Trust–I needed these resources to get through school and owe them a lot. Y’all already know my stance on pirating books. If you don’t, know that I don’t take kindly to people who steal the work of hardworking writers and publishers. I also don’t believe in services like Kindle Unlimited (the bane of my existence), but that’s a…

Review: Counterfeit by Kirstin Chen
This book was a blast -- and kind of made me want to give up blogging in exchange for a counterfeit handbag scheme?

There are a number of titles that intrigue me purely thanks to the uniqueness of their premise, so certainly look beyond this list if there isn’t…

I Had My First Seizure at Twenty-Four
A more personal piece for you today, describing what it was like to have my first seizure in my twenties.
A warning: This is going to include some slightly graphic descriptions, so if you don’t like blood, maybe skip it.What to do if someone has a seizure. My First Seizure Was Unprovoked and Unexpected A little over a month ago, I woke up on the ground bleeding from my head. But I’ll back up first. It was a lovely weekend here in the UK and I, my boyfriend, and his parents had gone for a day trip…

This post may contain affiliate links, meaning that if you buy something, I might earn a small commission from that sale at no cost to you. Read my full disclosure here. The world of the Shadowhunters is super confusing.

5 Easy Plants I Have Managed to Keep Alive
5 Easy Plants I Have Managed to Keep Alive
A departure from the usual book talk to address one of what I like to call the literary triad: books, plants, and coffee. Yep, I’m going to talk about a few of the easy plants I have managed to keep alive on my bookshelves. If you follow my Instagram, you’ve probably seen quite a few plants in my photos. So, I figured I would write this post to be completely transparent: I’m terrible with…

The Big Five Publishers and Their Imprints
A quick post on publishers I’ve been meaning to do for a while now! I’ve had some health issues over the past few weeks that I’ve been dealing with, which is why my posts (which were already sporadic at best) have come to a bit of a standstill. I have a concussion, so I’m not really supposed to be on my computer at all, but I’ve been itching to make a post. I’ve compromised with myself, and…
