I mentioned in an earlier post that I like to occasionally buy books from independent bookstores or "chains" with only a few different stores regionally. There are a few that I think are really worth pointing out individually because I really liked some of these shops and definitely want to see them thrive so that… Continue reading Independent Bookstores I Love
Happy Friday guys! This week actually went by kind of quick for me, and it was a pretty good week. This week's topic is Favorite Side Characters, which I happened to notice was last week's prompt for some of the blogs I follow. Seems like we all think alike... I'm just a little later to… Continue reading Five on Friday: Favorite Side Characters
Reading journals have become more popular for avid readers. Whether they are detailed bullet journals, logs in a spiral-bound notebook, or one of those you can buy from a bookstore or Amazon, I think every reader should keep one. This way we can see what we read at what point in our lives and see… Continue reading 5 Reasons to Keep a Reading Journal
Friday again! Hope everyone had an enjoyable week after the holiday! This week's topic is Books That Made Me Cry, and when I say this, I mean that "ugly cry." Or in other words, the crying that leaves us a mess. I typically try to avoid these kinds of books because I hate crying that… Continue reading Five on Friday: Books That Left Me a Crying Mess

There are only so many problems we can handle discussing at one time, right? (More) Bookworm Problems: Having unrealistic expectations for your… Continue reading More Common Bookworms Problems

Because of the release of Descendants 3 early on in the month, I quickly became a little obsessed with Descendants fanfiction, which kind of distracted me a bit from reading books and put me into a bit… Continue reading August Haul and Wrap Up
Happy Friday everyone! It's time for another Five on Friday! This week's topic is childhood favorites which works because I've been feeling a bit nostalgic lately. I think it's because of all these reboots happening of my favorite shows. It's just making me miss that time period - the late 90s and early 2000s -… Continue reading Five on Friday: Childhood Favorites
When we think of buying books, our first thoughts go to either Barnes & Noble or Amazon.com. There are other retailers such as Books-A-Million, Book Depository, and Indigo! where plenty of bookworms spend their money. In fact, out of this list the only one I haven't purchased books from is Book Depository. while I live… Continue reading Where I Buy Books
Since I began following other bloggers I've noticed that there are fun little "topic days" that they tend to participate in like Top Ten Tuesday or something similar, which I think is pretty cool because it gives bloggers something sure that they can post every week. Let's face it, besides reviews, it can be hard… Continue reading Five on Friday: Books I Could Reread Forever
