Hazel, The Wildbloom Witch

She/her I make art from fiber. A fiber artist if you will. LGBTQ+, Pagan plant enthusiast, mom of two little druids.
I keep on keepin' on. I think I've read more this year than any other in my life! A House With Good Bones by T. Kingfisher came up a bunch of times in horror book bingo losts under Southern Gothic and Domestic horror. I really did enjoy it, though the last act was a little abrupt.

How was this the most romantic romance I've experienced while still being about serial killers? Butcher & Blackbird by Brynne Weaver. Another book blanket square.

Do I have enough yet? Maybe. But I can make this blanket as big as I want. Tithe by Holly Black.

Finished reading and listening to books. 2 more squares!

Two more squares for the blanket. Did I post The Bane Witch yet? I worked so hard to get it right. I embroidered the Pokeweed and everything.

Holly Horror wasn't as deeply affecting as it though, so it got a standard granny square. Both good books for different reasons, but one touched my soul.

The Green Kingdom by Cornelia Funke was a charming book about an unforgettable summer in the city, where a girl who lives nature learns she can find it anywhere if she just looks in the right place (with the right people).

A beautiful love story full of gardens, bees, sweetness, grief, growth, and change, the Honey Witch by Sydney J. Shields is added to my book blanket!
September 3, 2025 at 12:56 AM
I did the audiobook of this one, and then bought the physical book so I had it for reference. Wild Witchcraft by Rebecca Beyer.

Book blanket addition, a third book with themes involving Snow White and Rose Red, although this one had other fairy tales as well, like Hansel and Gretal, and Snow White (without rose red).

After the Forest by Kell Woods was a beautiful love letter to what happily ever after really means to some

Book blanket square finished. I read this with by daughter. Calling on Dragons by Patricia C. Wrede, book 3 of the Enchanted Forest Chronicles.

I finished book 2 of the Oak & Holly cycle by K. A. Linde, The Robin on the Oak Throne. Book blanket square done. ❤️

Book blanket gets bigger, but now y'all can judge me. IYKYK

I finished The Wilderness of Girls by Madeline Claire Franklin. I attemped to make a crown that looked a bit like a bear trap but I don't know if it translates, especially with the "wildflower" colors I chose.

One of the librarians at my local library suggested this one. I was rolling with laughter most of the time. Blood Lite, a collection of humorous horror, added to my book blanket.

Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli adds another square to my book blanket. Back to a traditional granny square!

The kiddo wanted pride nails.

Another square to add to my 2025 book blanket! The Ornithologist's Field Guide to Love by India Holton.

It was like Emily Wilde and Alexia Macon (ne Tarabotti) were combined, and still wholly unique from those series as well.
May 30, 2025 at 3:35 AM
And another square is made for my book blanket! The Unfortunate Side Effects Of Heartbreak and Magic by Breanna Randall. Audiobook this time!
May 25, 2025 at 2:40 AM
The Lost Apothecary by Sarah Penner. Another book blanket square. And, coincidentally, another book blending modern day with history, and another book about overcoming the death of a bad relationship and finding yourself on the way.
May 14, 2025 at 2:43 PM
Maybe I'm too easy to please but I don't think I have read a book this year that I didn't really like.

The Lost Bookshop by Evie Woods adds another square to my book blanket.

Weyward by Emilia Hart, an amazing story spanning 3 lifetimes of women who find and use their inner power to build a life after losing everything.
April 30, 2025 at 5:29 PM
Call Forth a Fox by Markelle Grabo was a random choice. I liked the cover. It was one of the best books I've read in a while. Queer characters, cozy, chosen family, and sisterly bonds, it was another Snow White and Rose Red retelling. I didn't mean to have two in a row of that but I'm but mad.
April 23, 2025 at 12:31 PM
Another audiobook! The Sisters of the Winter Wood by Rena Rossner, a beautifully written coming of age period piece set in a historically turbulent time and place. Inspired by a combination of the author's real familial history and fairy tales (Snow White and Rose Red specifically).
April 21, 2025 at 1:16 AM
I finished reading the D'aulaires Greek Myths to my daughter, and I also finished The Restless Dead for myself. My reading goals are coming along!
April 11, 2025 at 12:53 PM
I finished the third and final Emily Wilde book and I am simultaneously ecstatic to have seen this story through and devastated to have no more new adventures.
