• Book of the Month: The Handmaid’s Tale

  I’m sure a book this well known needs no summary. I mean it has like two netflix adaptations and is taught in various high schools, so I’ll get to it. I read it during high school, and didn’t have many new insights on it other than how scarily accurate and timely it is. My friend…

• Thoughts on Poetry

  Well, it’s National Poetry Month. I think it’s obvious from a perusal of my blog that I don’t read poetry much. It’s too empheral for me who likes to grasp themes and character arcs rather than F E E L I N G S. I know books are subjective, but poems feel even more so…

• Author Highlight: Katherine Applegate

  I first became acquainted with her when I was in lower school thanks to the ever popular (At least I hope it still is popular in a cult sort of way) Animorphs series. It even had a tv show as it dealt with PTSD, genocide, and despairing, everyone is miserable in the end alien invasion.…

  I got to go to my first Ren Faire in college, and it was such a fun experience seeing the acrobats, the amazing costumes of other guests and of course, the funnel cake. I wanted to give the same experience to Kitty, so onward to Camelot.
