Did my relationship replace my blog?? (and P.S. I got engaged!)

Why hello there. How do I start these things, again? Ahem. I would like to talk to you about blogging and relationships. As you may or may not know, in my youth, I was a regular blogger. (And by "in my youth" I mean about 3 years ago, and by "regular" I mean on-the-regular as…

What’s happened to my blog?

Oh hi blog. It's been a minute. This post is gonna be just plain ranty and about nothing much in particular. Have a popcorn. I haven't been on the blogosphere for a while, which is something I've noted in just about every post for the past few months. I've still managed to put up 5…

Book blogger survey conclusions

Hey hey hey! I'm alive! But I totally just failed my 4-post-a-month goal. F-you, May. I just started summer classes like 3 weeks ago (with literally no break between the end of spring semester), and the workload took some adjusting to. Then I took a brief little trip. So no blog action except for the…

Questions for Book Bloggers!

Hello, you! Are you a book blogger? Then I have questions for you! As many of you know, I am currently working on my Masters in Library and Information Science. This semester, I am taking a course called "Literacy, Reading, and Readers." I have to do a final project for the course that centers on…

Book bloggers: Are we too nice?

This post was inspired in part by Puput, whose blog is phenomenal. She just wrote a wonderful post about writing negative/unpopular reviews. Please go read it!

So, first of all, THANK YOU! In case you missed it, yesterday I blogged about the echo chamber of book blogging and how we…

The echo chamber of book blogging

There's been a lot of talk in the past week about echo chambers on the internet. Oddly enough, I'd planned out this post before the topic exploded after the election. Now it's even more relevant. What I want to discuss is how a similar echo chamber phenomenon happens in the book blogging community as the political…

Breaking News: Following non-WordPress blogs on your WordPress reader

GUYS. I made a shocking discovery yesterday after my post on Bloglovin' and Litsy and how those platforms didn't work for me. I talked about how I'd love to follow more non-WordPress blogs, but going to a separate reader feed does not appeal to me because I like everything all in one place. BUT GUYS.…

An [unpopular] opinion on book blogging

This post has been on my mind for some time and I'm finally posting it in the hopes that all my followers don't leave me after reading it. But really. I love you. Please stay. I started this blog almost 3 years ago, and that was probably one of the best decisions I made that…
