Rajah debuts with a powerful collection of poetry that toes the line between lyrical artistry and complete and utter nonsensical peculiarity. I am going to have to admit that reading Sen Rajah'sย Milk of the Moonย was quite an exhaustive experience. It proved to be incredibly powerful, eye-opening and tragic but also innocent-like and hopeful. There can [...]
The Chosen One Legitimately, why? So, this post is a long time coming, I must say. My last post, and first post, in this series, specifically explored love triangles in Young Adult fiction. This time around, I thought to extend the post toย allย fiction, just because I felt like it. In this post, I will be [...]
What's going on, my loves? I hope your weekend went well! It's Sunday, so that means that I am going to announce the winners of my 300/500 followers giveaway! I allowed a week to do this only because it's been a busy one and I needed to type out every person who entered for the [...]
One month left of 2018. How did we get here? Hasn't this year gone so incredibly quick but also dragging by day by day. I blame Trump. So, I thought that I would start this month by rounding up the books I want to read this December! I'm planning for next year, to be more [...]

Trafford brings forth a brutal and bloody, but humorous and sometimes outright hilarious, conclusion to the Four Emperors Series. Do you know how long it has taken me to find the words to write this review? I was approached by the lovely Jessica from [...]

And it makes me so infinitely angry. What motivated me to write this post was a journey of reminiscence.ย Specifically, I was brainstorming an idea for another blog [...]
... Another book tag! and an award one, at that! I want to begin by thanking Vinny at Artsy Draft for nominating me! Words cannot express my gratitude - you're an absolute queen! So, I have never heard of this award/tag so I had to read over Vinny's explanation a few times. From what I [...]
If Twilight was written better and for a more mature audience and, of course, if Bella was a witch. This is what you would get. ... I want to preface this by saying that I literally had to force myself not to write this review immediately after completingย Discovery of Witches. Not entirely because I liked [...]
A girl at night, a caged monster during the day.ย ... I began readingย Korriganย by Rebecca F. Kenney in the midst of readingย A Discovery of Witchesย by Deborah Harkness. Why is this important? Just wait, I'll explain in a moment. If you're familiar with Discovery of Witches, you know that it centres around the story of 'no-I-don't-want-to-be-a-witch' [...]
