keep reading harry potter
Wednesday POV: family cuddle to warm up and you’re reading Harry Potter because you’re sick of seeing people tell other people not to read it. Stop shaming other people for what they’re reading. Mind your own fucking business. Stop telling people how to speak or what they should talk about or post on social media.…

fight the “bluest monday”
My blue current read for multiple reasons… Because it’s apparently the Bluest Monday of the year. But if you’ve read this far into this post, beat that shit. Go outside. Read. Don’t let these posts that are saying it’s the most depressive day of the year actually let it be that. Fight it. I see…

snacks make reading a full experience
What snack would you eat right now? I’ve been so into baking lately – baking more if there’s something that I’ve really wanted to buy while out and just to practice different recipes. A few days ago I made pumpkin cream cheese muffins, and I would definitely smash another batch of those if I had…

my bookstore
Come up with a crazy business idea. I’ve started a crazy business (very, very slowly).

Those strange books may be repurposed for decor or…

Originally I was curious…

2023 comes to an end
My 2023 Reading Wrapped Up What a crazy year, for reading and in my personal [and now business] life. I read 96 books in the year of 2023. The same number I had read last year, thus not obtaining my first goal to surpass my 2022 number of books read. I did, however, beat my…

december 2023
December Wrapup I got into the Christmas spirit with several books, each of which was a first time read for me. It was magical and they were so comforting. I kind of struggled with A Christmas Carol and it wasn’t filled entirely with enjoyment for me, but I’m sure I’ll eventually revisit and see what…

the perfect space
You get to build your perfect space for reading and writing. What’s it like? The Writing and Reading Space The dogs are sleepy and cuddly, they’ve both been fed, out to the bathroom, and won’t bother me for houses. The house is quiet. It’s late afternoon, after all of the animals’ dinner. The farm animals…

rereading harry potter
Christmas 2023 Nostalgia I finished my Christmas Day off beginning with a nostalgic read of Harry Potter. Harry Potter is entwined with so many holiday memories for me. My siblings and I shared the books and movies and we received them as presents for a few Christmases. It was always wonderful to watch and/or read…
