As much as I love lesser-known hidden gem kinda books, I do read popular books too, and sometimes hyped books are in fact worth the hype. So I am very glad I read these! They're all fantastic, and some of them are among my absolute favorites. So if you haven't read them yet, but you like queer books and books set in outer space, consider giving these a...
I haven't done a tag in forever, and when I finally do, I totally fail at it! If you're wondering how one can fail at a book tag, well, you'll see. I could've just not done the tag, but it's my blog and I do what I...

Harrow, brilliant necromancer and bone mage, has agreed to help the Emperor and is now living on his space station along with him and four others. But something has gone wrong, she's being guided by letters she wrote to herself but doesn't remember writing, one of her teachers wants to kill her, and none of it will even matter if the revenant of a dead planet kills...
In honor of spooky season, I decided to gather up some book covers with skeletons! If you regularly follow my blog, you may have seen a lot of these already, since I'm using a bunch of books I've read and a couple that I've used in other cover posts, like this Halloween Book Covers Tag, but there are a few new ones as well. There are lots of hand bones and skulls, but also a few full...
![Book Review: Gideon the Ninth (The Locked Tomb Book 1) by Tamsyn Muir [Audiobook]](https://metaphorsandmoonlight.com/wp-content/uploads/Book-Review-Gideon-the-Ninth-The-Locked-Tomb-Book-1-by-Tamsyn-Muir-255x255.jpg)
When the Ninth House necromancer receives a summons to take part in trials to ascend and become immortal, Gideon agrees to pretend to be her cavalier in exchange for freedom from indentured servitude. But not long after all the house necromancers and cavaliers arrive, people start being murdered, and they realize they're all trapped and going to die unless they can figure out what's going...
Next up for my end of the year posts is characters! The lifeblood of books! I just thought it was interesting to note that four of these are main characters, one is a love interest, three are side characters, and two are kind of cheating since I chose all the main characters. I could ramble some for the intro, but eh, no point in wasting time, let's just get to all of the characters I loved...
It's the end of another year, and that means it's time to do all my bookish end of the year posts! Yay! I don't do a lot of posts about book covers anymore, but I do so love a pretty cover. Good artwork and/or good, cohesive design *chef's kiss* So anyway, here are all my favorite covers from the books I read in 2020! *I did my best to find cover artists, but I just couldn't find the info for...
We did it! We voted Trump out! I know I'm a little late with that celebration, but I couldn't not share my excitement. It's just such a relief to know we won't be subjected to the catastrophe that four more years of him would've been. In other, less significant news (but still significant to me)... I cut my hair! (Literally cut it myself!) And I'm excited about it! It's a big deal for me since...
Well, September is over. It's been another tough month. Probably for everyone. I've had a lot of headaches and worries, but I'm gonna try to focus on some positive things for this post. I played some games! If you saw my review of Overland, then you already know how much I've adored it. Since finishing my first playthrough, I've been trying to find all the landmarks and overlooks, just because...
Oh boy, the titles for the later months in the year are really a mouthful lol. Anyway, I can't believe there are only four months left in the year. But there are still a lot of great books to look forward to! Especially in September and October, for some reason. So here are some of the books that I'm excited for that you all should be...
