Hi everybody, and welcome to a new Top Ten Tuesday!
Today’s all about the top ten books we read in 2019 and I’m sorry but I just could not reduce this list to just ten books. Which is a good problem to have, I suppose. So without further ado, I present to you my FIFTEEN favorite books of 2019!
Hi everybody, and welcome to my July wrap up!
Is it just me, or did July seem to go on forever? It definitely felt longer than most months to me. That said, I did read quite some good books and watched some great TV so let’s just get into it!

Hi everybody, and welcome to a new Top Ten Tuesday!
Today’s topic was a freebie and I wanted to take the opportunity to talk about a trope I love dearly, and yet doesn’t seem to be very popular in common media: the pen pal romance. I LOVE pen pal romances. Maybe it’s because I myself am an awkward potato in real life and am much more comfortable expressing myself in writing. I just love the idea of opening up to someone in writing and falling in love with the other person’s writing and words, without even knowing what they look like. Whenever I come across this concept in a book, I am reduced to a swoony, smiling pile of happiness on the floor. Seriously.
Also, please note that when I say pen pal romance I include the whole range of pen pal media: written letters, email, chat or texts. Either one does the trick for me!

And the romance binge continues!
Though I’m usually a fantasy kind of girl, for the past few weeks I’ve been binging romance books like crazy. And in the midst of this romance binge, I discovered a new-to-me author called Mariana Zapata. An author who’s apparently known for her slow-burn romances. HELLO, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE? It only got better when I discovered one of her books featured a pen pal romance and another an enemies-to-lovers trope. I can’t help it, I am drawn to those tropes like crazy so obviously I immediately purchased them, listened to both of them on audiobook and had some thoughts, so please check out my mini reviews below!
