Hey everyone! I know I’m a few days late, but today I’m going to be sharing some of the books I’m hoping to read this month!

Because everything was starting all around the same time,… Read More

Hey everyone! Well, the Sbooktober Readathon is officially over, and Halloween day is almost here. Last Sunday, I shared my TBR and now it’s time for me to wrap up how this readathon went for me! Unfortunately, I didn’t get everything on my TBR read. But, this week was pretty busy for me, so I’m not surprised at all. But that’s okay, because readathons are just supposed to be fun! 🙂 Alrighty, here’s… Read More
It’s time for another Blogtober Book Quote! Today I’m back with another Ray Bradbury quote, but this time it’s from his widely famous novel, Fahrenheit 451! I absolutely love this book, and this particular quote describes the atmosphere of autumn so incredibly well. The autumn leaves blew over the moonlit pavement in such a way as to make the girl who was moving there seem fixed to a sliding walk, letting the motion… Read More
