November & December '20 Wrap Up

November & December ’20 Wrap Up

Hey ya’ll! I thought sharing this post soooo late would be really weird. I went back and forth on posting or not for awhile. I also thought about adding all of this to a new post covering everything I’ve read since this post, but I thought that might be too long. Ultimately, because I had most of the post written and gathering dust since I started it, I decided to share it anyway. If you are…

"Sentimientos in Waves" Collection Series - Who am I

“Sentimientos in Waves” Collection Series – Who am I

Hey ya’ll!

So I ended up taking a five week break from this series and it was totally by accident! At first, I had midterms which took up a lot of my time and then I was unsure about how I wanted to share this post. The poem that I am sharing today is written as a spoken word piece, so it’s supposed to be heard and not read. However, I am way too nervous to read it out loud and share it with you…

I hope you have been caring for yourselves as well as can be imagined during these times and that you’ve managed to read some books that give you a little care and comfort. This month I held on to my comfort reads: romance! I caught up with one series, finished another and…

September ’20 Wrap Up

Hey ya’ll!

I am a little later than I have been recently, but I’m super excited to share with ya’ll all the books I read in the month of September. It was a super busy month so there’s definitely a particular theme to the books I managed to read (not counting the ones I read for school). I am also still super request happy so there’s a lot of library books that I have read and I’m planning to…

“Sentimientos in Waves” Collection Series – Abandoned

Hey ya’ll!

This post is the last of three poetry pieces that I am sharing for this collection! For this assignment, we were again asked to play with form. This one was probably the hardest one to write because I was kind of running out of ideas haha. I would love to know your thoughts on it! Tell me what you think of the form and the content. I really hope you all enjoy this piece!

Hey ya’ll!

This post is the second of three poetry pieces that I am sharing for this collection! For this assignment, we were asked to play with form and to create something more visually unconventional. I have a general idea of what I hope my poem visual looks like, but I would love to know your thoughts on it either way! Tell me what you think of the form and the content. I really hope you all…

August '20 Wrap Up

August ’20 Wrap Up

Hey ya’ll!

I am so excited to be here for another monthly wrap up! I hope you are all doing well and that your reading was great this past month. In comparison to how much I’ve been reading the last few months (besides July), this month was pretty slow. But August was a busy month for me so I’m okay with the smaller amount of books.

SO let’s get started!

On Writing, Emotions and Sharing Yourself: “Sentimientos in Waves” Collection Series

Hey ya’ll!

I’m sharing something new today which is kind of nerve wracking so I hope ya’ll go easy on me. For my last semester of my community college career, I took a creative writing class. It was one of the most intense and exposing experiences of my life. I was terrified the entire time because I had never really given writing a shot and I wanted to do well!

With that being said, I will be…

Hey ya’ll!

It’s a little later than I have been posting the last few months, but I’m still here! This past month wasn’t the greatest when it came to reading but there’s a lot of different reasons for that which I’m going to share right now.

Hey ya’ll!

It’s the end of another month and I am still here! Who would’ve thunk it? haha. This past month has been a bit challenging for me but I still tried to keep reading as big as a priority as I could. I also participated in the Olympic Games Readathon and I managed to read two books for the mandatory challenges and one for an advanced challenge that doesn’t really count for the teams but…

Hello everyone!

I am here today for something kind of new. I haven’t shared a TBR in a really long time and I haven’t participated in a readathon in even longer than that. But when this particular one popped up on my Twitter feed, I could not help myself and knew I had to be a part of it!

The Olympic Games Readathon is hosted by booktuber Ishi Timealong with some other cohosts. It is based on…

Hey ya’ll!

Look! I’m on time! haha. I am now managing to share one post a month! That was my plan for 2019 and it took me a year, but I got it done! I’ve been so happy to start making my little internet space my home again. I wanted to share, in case you didn’t know, I’ve become much more active in my bookstagram during my little blogging hiatus.
