Welcome! I’m a girl who loves to read, write, and watch shows like New Girl, Friends, PLL, Gilmore Girls, and more! I’m doing my best to stay active on here. I always look forward to meeting new friends! Age: 28, she/her

Welcome new followers. If I do not follow you right away, it’s because I’m either sleeping or I’m working, and I will do my best to follow you back as soon as I can.
Also, I added my age to my bio, so be aware of that before following me so it doesn’t become a personal issue for some.
One of these days I’ll start reading more fantasy books meant for adults but in my defense, the characters arcs, developments, and chemistry really being hitting hard in these YA books.

Does anyone else kinda black out whenever they go book buying? So you’re not really paying attention to how much books costs until you finally get up to check out and hear your total, then you’re just like:

YA’LL I KID YOU NOT, I ACCIDENTALLY BOUGHT THE SAME WRONG BOOK TWICE! WHY DO THESE FANTASY BOOKS HAVE SO MANY DIFFERENT BOOK COVERS. 🤣

My next read to finish off the month of December is book 2 of the Once Upon a Broken Heart trilogy; “The Balled of Never After.”

My sister just bought a few books to set off my reading list as a Christmas gift! 🤩

I accidentally bought the third book next instead of book 2 so now I have to wait even longer to read the next book. 😭
My personal rating for this book is a 3/5, it’s only a YA but I felt it was too predictable, however still enjoyable to keep reading. So I will continue with the series.

*sighs* So, now people are complaining that Taylor is trying to set a normal example by *checks notes* paying her team and employees well for their work.
That woman really can’t do ANYTHING without people finding something to be mad about.

I’m trying not to buy any new books until next year but I’m halfway through my last Tbr book for the month of December. My choices will either be to re-read something I’ve already read or try again with a DNF book.

Watching the finale Eras Tour show and already telling from the first note how strong Taylor’s voice has gotten over the course of the Eras Tour. Like the first Eras Tour her voice was already amazing, but you can hear how much her voice has grown throughout the tour.

Holy shit Indiana actually made the right choice for once. For now, anyway.
BREAKING:

The Indiana Senate just REJECTED the gerrymandered congressional map that Trump and his allies pressured Republicans to support.

The GOP-controlled chamber voted down the map, 31-19.

No one warns you that once you become a reader that when you start Christmas shopping the struggle between wanting to buy new books and shopping for others is you don’t have the budget to do both.

There is a difference between enemies to lovers and annoyances to lovers. Both are good tropes to use but they’re also the easiest to mix up.

Next up on my reading list is Once Upon A Broken Heart.
I’m excited to dive into this trilogy!

It’s been awhile since I’ve read the Throne of Glass series but I’ve been sitting on this unpopular opinion for awhile now…
Aelin and Chaol actually had the most realistic dynamic/friendship. Y’all can talk shit, but I’m glad they came out on the other side as friends.

This book surprised me in the best ways. I wouldn’t even label this as a romance since it’s more of a subplot than the main thing. It’s got a tone of mystery to it and just really good story details. I look forward to the sequel!
I’d rate this a 4⭐️s/5

Unpopular #writing/ #reading opinion but as much as I love fantasy series, I don’t think it’s necessary for authors to stretch out a series just to feed fan service. I know that doesn’t make much sense, but authors need to be able to move on from past works and be able to dream up something new.

Randomly thinking about the times when I used to write fanfiction for a TV show and stopped because someone copy and pasted my entire story onto Wattpad.

Every time I rewatch #Friends I feel the need to skip season 2 episodes with Richard in them. Like I’m sorry I know a lot of fans loved him, but it’s so icky to me that Richard knew Monica as a child and ended up dating her. I know they’re both adults but it makes my skin crawl.

Writers, weird question, but do any of you have a shower pen? 🤣

I ask this every year, If you watch the show Friends, what is your favorite Thanksgiving episode?

I love it over here on blue sky, but sometimes I forget that I can be a sarcastic B and some people tend to take some of my book reviews a little too seriously. Imma help y’all out by knowing that if I use an emoji like this 😂😅🤣🥲 I am joking, mkay?
