Favourite Books of 2021 / Books I read in January 2022
Is it February of 2022 and I'm only just posting this? Yes, that's right, and it's been several months since my last post. All of this is irrelevant, please enjoy the post regardless. Favourite Books of 2021 I had less-than-average reading years in 2019 (14 books) and 2020 (5 books), so I was happy that … Continue reading Favourite Books of 2021 / Books I read in January 2022

I wrote it when I was writing a thesis closely related to feminism and wanted some feminist reads, so … Continue reading Feminist Books On My TBR

Recently I have been reading a few of my old blog posts, and I am amazed at how my mindset has changed (plus my writing style, but let's not worry about that). I had so much more … Continue reading Why I Stopped Blogging About Books
A Post About Books
I'll be honest, I have not enjoyed reading as much as I used to. I cannot remember how I consistently wrote blog posts about books, and especially how I reviewed them. That said, I have really liked most of the books I have read this year. So I am going to do a few mini … Continue reading A Post About Books
