Hai Beautiful! I’m taking on another readathon! I’ve never been a huge fan of readathons (being a slow reader and all…), but after completing the O.W.Ls readathon successfully in April, I’ve become confident and have decided to take on another readathon. If you are not into reading blog posts, you can watch my TBR video here or at the end of this post. What is it??

Hai Beautiful! The Best Writing Update Yet! Let’s start with the most important question of all: Have I finished my book yet?? The answer is no.

In the month of April, the sixth month of writing this novel, I participated in the yearly event called Camp NaNoWriMo. It is an online event that runs from the […]

quotes from my wip as told in buzzfeed unsolved screenshoTs 2020 SW Header - Quotes From My WIP Using Buzzfeed Unsolved Screenshots From My Desktop... (SW#53)

Hai Ghouls! This whole post was great (in theory)… I’d like to think that I have watched every single episode of Buzzfeed Unsolved. From the days when their videos were posted on Buzzfeed Multiplayer, to now when, even though Shane and Ryan have their own media company, they continue to bring us joy on the Buzzfeed Unsolved YouTube channel. This idea started with a single screenshot and ended in me re-watching Buzzfeed Unsolved videos and trying to find decent quotes […]

Hollow City (Graphic Novel) by Ransom Riggs | Spoiler-Free Book Review

April 20, 2020

Hai Cuties! Chatting about my two favourite things! Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and anything Shadowhunters (as you may know), are two of my favourite series. Both series have been illustrated by the wonderfully talented Cassandra Jean. I’m not truly sure what it is about her art – could be it was the fact that she was the first art of the Shadowhunters I saw and thus the first to bring my favourite characters to life – but I am absolutely […]

Books To Read While Self-Isolating ♥

April 11, 2020

Hai Beautiful! What’s on your isolation TBR? A while ago I was asked by someone for book recommendations which I realised were mostly by Aussie authors. I made a post on this called ‘Book Recommendations For When Your TBR is Looking Thicc‘. Probably not the best title if I want my post to be found on Google searches but I found it funny. *If you want to check out that post, it is linked above. All books are available on […]
