Book Recommendations Based on your Hogwarts House

I’ve seen a few blog posts/videos about books for each Hogwarts House, and it seemed like a really fun idea! I also now realize that it’s kind of hard to come up with books for each house… Nevertheless, I had fun coming up with all of these so here are three books recommended for members […]

Booktube-A-Thon TBR

I made an impromptu decision last night while watching Booktube-a-Thon TBRs to join in on the readthon! Now I obviously do not have a Booktube channel, so I will not be doing the video challenges, just the reading ones. Anyways, Booktube-a-Thon is a readathon hosted on youtube by Ariel Bissett. I thought it would be […]

Summer TBR

Summer is really the only time of year when I can actually sit back, relax, and read for over forty-five minutes at a time and I love it. For most of June I was travelling so I wasn’t able to read much then, but in the past five days, I’ve already read three books. It […]
