I love book quotes! I'm a quote hoarder. But I didn't need to look through my hoard of quotes for this post because it's all about the ones that have stuck in my mind. These are not necessarily meaningful quotes. They run the gamut from beautiful to emotional to funny to horrifying. You'll see. They're just the ones I still think about because they hit hard in the book or were so...
It's me, I'm the fantasy reader! I found this tag on Howling Libraries, and it seems the original was created by Bree Hill about romance books. I'm not sure who came up with the idea to make it about fantasy, but since I am a fantasy reader, I'm glad someone...
I like fae and I like books, and I really like this tag because it has some creative questions that I've not seen in other tags. Having already done the tag (I'm writing the intro last, sorry to break the illusion), I like that I even got to talk about some books I haven't talked about much or in a while! Anyway, I found this at KBbookreviews. The rules are: - Give credit to the creator of...
I cut my hair! (And bought a pirate shirt!) That's my big October news. I also made some art! I bought Rebelle 5 Pro because it was on sale for $20 (normally $150) and mimics traditional media like watercolor and oil paint. I can't use traditional media because it takes energy, money, and space that I don't have, so this has been fun to play with! I love the idea of controlled randomness like...
I love paranormal and urban fantasy! I could give tons of recommendations, depending on how loosely you define "urban fantasy." For this, I tried to stick to what most people probably think of---our world (though maybe with known existence of magic), modern times, not too slow or rural, at least some action/battles---though I did slip a few in that don't fit the criteria perfectly. I could give...
I know February isn’t quite over, but I didn’t feel like trying to figure out another post for today, so we’re doing this one early. And since the world is not doing great right now, and I’m not doing great right now, and a lot of people aren’t doing great right now, I’ve decided to...
I needed a blog post, and Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, so I took inspiration from that. And I just love characters and relationships and quotes and wanted the excuse to talk about them! I didn't want to overwhelm everyone with too long of a blog post though. So here are five quotes from five (but definitely not all) of my favorite book couples being silly or swoony or ridiculous...
Happy New Year, everyone! I don't know why I said that with so much enthusiasm. I don't actually feel enthusiastic about it. But it's still a new year, regardless of how I feel, so *shrug* I managed to squeeze in one last finished art piece though, and I am enthusiastic about that! It's Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer Centaur! (His nose gets cold.) (Also technically he's a cervitaur.) I'm...
A few years ago, I made a blog post with recommendations for lesser-known m/m vampire books, and I'm finally back with more! Sometimes when I do rec posts, I include books that weren't really for me because books are subjective and other people may still enjoy them. But so far, with this topic, I've been able to recommend books I personally liked or loved. For some of these books, I mention...
Let's see, what did I do in June... I finally watched Cats (2019)! To be honest, I didn't hate it. It was weird, like everyone said, but some of the songs were fun, and I liked the dancing. I loved the Magical Mr. Mistoffelees! Munkustrap was pretty adorable too. I think most of the weirdness was just from the original story making no sense (from what I know of it), rather than the movie...
