Hai Beautiful! Ending the year with a bang! I’m being ✨realistically optimistic✨ this month with my TBR. I’ve chosen five to six books that I really want to read before the year is over although two of them are novellas and another two, a collection of short pieces. A couple of weeks ago, I uploaded a video on this topic where I talk more in-depth about the books I chose and why they have been chosen for my last ever TBR of […]

Hai Beautiful! I think we hyped it up too much… If you have read the Illuminae Files series (Illuminae, Gemina and Obsidio) in the past two or so years; a.k.a. since the release of Obsidio, you’d know about Memento, the companion novella that only a few readers were able to get their hands on. Finally, after begging and begging and begging and more begging from fans of the series, Jay and Amie were able to officially release the once exclusive novella as an […]

Hai Beautiful! I’m back to my usual blogging schedule! I last spoke about my writing in this post titled: Announcing my 2020 NaNoWriMo Project. It was actually the last writing post before I disappeared from blogging in hopes to make more time for writing. In theory that was a great idea and in reality, it helped me to reduce stress, but did I write more? In my NaNo Announcement post, I spoke about starting my second WIP (which I am still […]

Hai Beautiful! Why did I choose this book to read during NaNoWriMo? TrueLife was everything I expected (and more) from the last book in a very action-packed, heart-shattering series! Goodreads Summary Best friends have become enemies. Lovers have become strangers. And deciding whose side you’re on could be the difference between life and death. For Eve and Lemon, discovering the truth about themselves–and each other–was too much for their friendship to take. But with the country on the brink of […]

Hai Beautiful! Success is a lie! Okay, so that intro line may be a little harsh. I consistently set super high standards for myself without learning each and every time and consistently failing, it’s hard to believe in success. Let me backtrack… I participated in the second round of the Because We Can Readathon; Travel Edition, last week. It is always a fun time to be creative, release daily videos and try (and fail) to read books for all the […]

Hai Beautiful! I love a good coming-of-age novel! This was the most fun I’ve had reading a young adult contemporary in a long time. It was raw with feeling, emotion and youthful ignorance. Every young woman can learn from this novel and everyone who’s lived this can laugh and enjoy the experience. Goodreads Summary When her parents announce their impending divorce, Natalie can’t understand why no one is fighting, or at least mildly upset. Then Zach and Lucy, her two […]

Hai Beautiful Humans! I’m Gonna Give It My All! This was supposed to be posted last Saturday but I postponed it to yesterday, then I had a major breakdown and now it’s going live today! Although, I guess posting on the off/non-scheduled days has become expected from me by now (see bottom of this post for my actual blog schedule). This week I am participating in the Because We Can Readathon (again!). This time it is running from the 19th till the […]

Death awaits … But who will pay the price? The battle for Renlock may be won, but the war for Everosia is far from over. […]
