I didn't do much of anything this month, but I guess I can scrounge up a few things to talk about. I watched Onward, the Pixar(?) movie. It made me cry! I feel like I've never seen anyone talk about this movie? I don't remember seeing previews or anything. I had no idea it even existed. But it was so touching and sweet. A very cute brother relationship. Also, for anyone who's seen it (has...
I realized that I didn't do a single cover love post in 2024, aside from the end of the year one, so one of these is long overdue! My last one was about fall vibes, so why not spring this time? I know it's not quite spring yet, but this was all I could think of, and it feels too late for winter-themed posts. I might regret this next month when I have no post ideas, but oh well, doing it...
This post is a bit late, so some of these books are already out, but that just means you can immediately start reading them if they sound good to you! I haven't been on bookish social media much lately, so I had to do some searching to find these, and I was worried I'd have a hard time finding ten books to use. Instead I had a hard time narrowing the list down! Almost all of these are...

I've decided I'm going to focus on positive things for this month's update. So first I have some art! I made fanart for I Was a Teenage Exocolonist. It started in December 2023 when someone posted on Reddit like, "I've never played, but this subreddit keeps showing up on my feed. Ask me about the game, and I'll pretend I know." Someone asked who Noctilucent should end up with, the person answered...

It’s the first month of the year, and I was thinking, what better time for a post about the first lines of books? So that’s what I’m doing! It’s getting hard to keep track and not repeat books when I’ve done this so many times. You’d think it wouldn’t be that hard, considering I’ve must’ve...
