• Reading Log 2023

  Last year, I read an amazing 500 books so this year it was only reasonable that I reach a little more and try to get to 600. I didn’t. I got to 700 books!! And yes, maybe it’s considered “cheating” if you count those graphic novels and lower grade books that are easy to read…

• June Books

  Friday I’m in Love by Camryn Garret Mahira always wanted a sweet sixteen, was promised one but socioeconomic difficulties made the big event fall through. But inspired by her best friend’s Sweet 16 and her annoyance with the required “coming out” convention as a life changing announcement rather than a celebration-Mahira decides to make it…

• Favorite Rupi Kaur Poems P1

  If you knew me in real life, you would know that even though I love books, I despise poetry. Ironic for a creative writing major I suppose but I just find it hard to understand, pretnetious and designed to make me feel as stupid. But Rupi Kaur is one of the few poets that speaks…
