Cramathon is back! This round is going from July 6th-12th.
girls of paper and fire by natasha ngan (thoughts)
Girls of Paper and FireĀ was an interesting experience for me.
I rarely read fantasy which means that when I picked this one up, I knew it was going to be hard. Transitioning from someone who doesn’t read fantasy to somoene who does requires a lot of brain power that you wouldn’t realize unless you’ve experienced it. You can’t just read the words anymore. Now you have to rewire your brain to be in the world in front of you. Because each magic system is so different and complex, I generally read more of urban fantasy if anything.

guilty reader book tag!
Happy Sunday!
Today, I wanted to do an oldie but a goodie: the Guilty Reader Book tag! I found it onĀ Hannah at A Clockwork Reader’s channel, but couldn’t find the OP.
i made a tbr jar!
So. I suck at TBRs. I really do.
I’m such a mood reader that I can’t keep up with TBRs. They just put me in reading slumps. I’ve tried a TBR jar before, and, as expected, it didn’t work. This time around, I decided to take inspiration from some Booktubers and make a TBR prompt jar.
lily and dunkin by donna gephart (review)
This week I readĀ Lily and Dunkin,Ā thinking that it would be a cute middle grade story about the friendship between two outcasts. I was wrong.

the coffee book tag!
If you don’t know me, you probably don’t know how seriously I take my coffee. I’m what one would call a “coffee snob.”
I worked as a barista for almost 4 years, managed a specialty shop at 18, and then worked at Peet’s and Starbucks. So like….I really like coffee. When I found this tag created byĀ BangadyBangz on YouTube, I knew it had to be done.
21 books i want to read before 21
So, I saw Meg at megwithbooks do this video.
In it, she talked about how she wanted to read these 21 books before her birthday, whether they were ones that she had been putting off or were just super excited for. While watching, I was thinking about which books I would want to read before I turn 21 in 6 months.
Thus this list was born!
let’s talk about love by claire kann review
For Pride-a-thon, I readĀ Let’s Talk About Love by Claire Kann, and I was hypeeeedddd for it. I had wanted to read it since it came out in 2018, and I was finally getting around to it. I was genuinely expecting it to be 5 stars….that didn’t happen

mid year book freakout tag
It’s that time of year again. The online book community is going to be flooded with the Mid Year Book Freakout Tag, so add this to the list.
2020 hasn’t been the best reading year in terms of quantity but the quality, for the most part, has been incredible! At this point, I haven’t read anything below 3 stars which is actually kind of unbelievanble.
if more people chose heroism… (renegades by marissa meyer review)
This was one of the most suprising 5 star reads I have ever read.
I was obviously hoping I would like it, but I didn’t think I would love it THIS much. Like, it sounded interesting. Superheroes, morally grey characters, dystopian society, anarchy? Sign me up! But somehow, I was just expecting it to fall flat. Thankfully, it didn’t.
