I BINGED THE ILLUMINAE FILES SERIES // illuminae (book one): this book destroyed me… send help!
Yes, I do realise that I read this trilogy back in March and I am only NOW doing this review. I am a terrible person. But oh well. Better late than never amirite?! Anyways, I binged this series while I was away on holiday and as you can tell by the title: THEY DESTROYED ME! And of course, such emotions need their own entire blog post. This review may be a mess when are they ever not one though because I read them so long ago. And also I’m going to try not to spoil future books since I did binge these books back to back. I don’t think I did but do proceed with caution. Also, this was originally like an entire series review but it landed up being like 3k+ words long so they’ve been split. And I’ve decided to do a thing where I post the reviews one after the other. Fun huh. So yeah you can stay tuned for reviews of the following two books If you’re reading it the day it’s been published, these posts won’t be live yet but if not, you can click here for my other reviews of this series < 3…

THE PANCAKE BOOK TAG // i’m now hungry ft. beautiful books and mind-blowing reads
Hello there food-loving friends idk why I said that, please ignore I do not know why I thought this tag was a good idea because it’s making me VERY hungry. Well done Ruby. Great stuff. Also, I do realise that this’ll be the second tag in a row and I sincerely apologise for being extremely unorganised. I was working on this other post but it got frustrating and I literally wanted to pull my hair out. So instead you’re getting this lovely tag ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I saw Caitlin Althea and a few other people do this tag and it seemed fun. I don’t think I’ve been tagged but I wanted to do it anyway. What is new ha. THE RULES: Link back to the original creator in your post. Feel free to use any of my pancake graphics in your post, or create your own!

STRANGER THINGS BOOK TAG // i should’ve done this tag ages ago ft. basically all of my favourite books
Hi yes hello if you’re new here then you probably don’t know that I am obsessed with Stranger Things. And I basically find any and every excuse to talk about it. You’ve been warned. Also yes I am working on a season 3 review (which is very late but OH WELL). I have done a post about both season 1 and 2 if you’d like to take a look, you can click here. It is quite old though and you’ll probably cringe so uh, enter at your own risk. I need to find the strength to write this post but I promise it is coming. As soon as my exams are over and I’ll more time to dedicate to blogging. But that’s not we’re here to talk about today. Also, I wasn’t tagged to do this but um what’s new? I just do whatever I want whoops. The original creator is Sarah Elise for anyone interested. And without further ado let’s just get into the questions! EPIC INTRO The opening sequence of Stranger Things is amazing and really grabs your attention. Name a book that grabbed your attention from the first page. Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins…

OCTOBER RECAP // new fave book, spooky series binge & mental health
I’m really terrible at sticking to a schedule people. I’m meant to be FREE and I just can’t do it. I said I’d try and post every 2 weeks during exams but whelp that didn’t happen. I kept leaving it to Sunday and then I just couldn’t get around to finishing the dang post. The cycle continued so this is why you’re only getting a post now. Anyways, I don’t want this post to go up too late so I’m trying to stay ahead of the game and post it now. I also want to start doing book hauls in monthly recaps so that’ll start happening in next month’s one. I have a giant one coming up because my last one was back in like March, but afterwards, I’m going to do ’em in recaps. If you even cared… Should I stop rambling and just get into what happened last month? I think that’s a good idea! Hunting Prince Dracula by Kerri Maniscalco {★★★★☆}: hskjkjs this SERIES! I’d just finished the first book last month (i.e. September) so I decided to jump right into the sequel. And I enjoyed it a lot more. I will say I think I rated…
