Let’s Talk Bookish: Balancing reading for your blog and other hobbies

Published on November 13, 2021November 13, 2021 by Aria1 Comment

Hello, and happy Saturday! I didn’t have school Thursday or Friday, and it’s been nice to relax a little over the weekend, although I didn’t get a ton done in terms of writing for nanowrimo, or blogging. It’s been a bit over a week since my last post, and I’ve pushed this post back a bit since I’ve been really busy with school. I think that this is a really great topic, and one that comes up a lot in my life since I have a lot to balance, between school, blogging, reading, and everything else in my life!

Let’s Talk Bookish: When a post doesn’t do very well

Published on November 5, 2021November 5, 2021 by Aria3 Comments

Hello, and happy Friday! I had a really busy week at school, and combined with nanowrimo, I’ve had no free time at all the last couple days. I’m really excited for this week’s LTB topic though, since it’s something I have a lot of experience with. I do lots of different types of posts, and they always end up doing really differently, so here are my thoughts on this topic, and my answers to this week’s questions!

Let’s Talk Bookish: What makes you like a character?

Published on October 29, 2021November 5, 2021 by Aria1 Comment

Hello, and happy Friday! Today was my school’s homecoming, which was pretty fun. Because of covid, we couldn’t have a dance so instead it was a carnival. I volunteered for a little bit at the Amnesty International club’s booth, and I had fun with that. I met up with a friend, and we wandered for a little bit. Anyways, I’m excited to get into this week’s LTB topic, which will be me talking all about book characters and what makes me like them!

Hello, and happy Friday! Today I had two tests in school, which was kind of stressful, but after school I had my drivers permit test, and I passed!! I was really nervous about it, but I passed and now I can learn to drive! I’m really really excited about that.

Anyways, onto today’s Let’s Talk Bookish topic! This week, I’m going to be talking all about my back up plans for posting.

Let’s Talk Bookish: Overused book tropes

Published on October 15, 2021 by Aria3 Comments

Hello, and happy Friday! Today I didn’t have school which was really nice, and I did a small birthday thing with some friends, and I had a really good time with that!! I also read a fair amount this morning, and finished reading One of Us is Next, by Karen M. McManus. It was really good, and in my opinion much better than the first book in the series.

Anyways, onto today’s Let’s Talk Bookish topic! This one was actually suggested by me, so if you couldn’t guess, I’ve got lots of opinions on it. I’m so excited to be talking all about overused book tropes, so I’m gonna dive right into this post.

What some my favorite characters were doing when they were my age – part 2, age 14

Published on October 14, 2021October 11, 2022 by Aria7 Comments

Hello! Today was a pretty busy Thursday, but I have a four day weekend coming up: an exciting one, because my birthday’s on Sunday! I did a post like this last year, but it was all about 13 year old characters. I’ve been so excited for this one for so long, and it was so much fun to put together.

I’m in a weird in between age right now: Most young adult protagonists are 15-18, and middle grade characters are usually 12 and under. But I managed to scrape up a pretty good list of characters, and I hope you have fun reading about what they were all up to when they were my age, fourteen years old!

Let’s Talk Bookish: Cut and Paste Character Archetypes

Published on October 8, 2021October 8, 2021 by Aria5 Comments

Hello, and happy Friday! I haven’t had too much happen this week: just little bit of reading, and a lot of school work. I’m really excited for the weekend! I have dance for a lot of tomorrow, from 10-2:30, but after that I’ll hopefully get some writing done (maybe nano prep, but I’m not sure) and I’m going to try and schedule some blog posts. Anyways, I’m actually really excited for this week’s prompt: I think that I’ll have a lot of thoughts on this weeks LTB topic!

This week’s topic is: cut and paste character archetypes (suggested by Dani)! I definitely have a lot of thoughts on this subject, and I’m excited to share them all with you..

Let’s Talk Bookish: Series vs. Standalones

Published on October 2, 2021October 2, 2021 by Aria3 Comments

Hello and happy Saturday! This week’s LTB post is a day late, but since I like doing wrap ups on the 1st of the month if possible, I decided to push this week’s post a bit back.

This week’s topic is one that I’m actually really excited about: series vs. standalones (suggested by M.T. Wilson @ Last book on the left) I don’t really know if there is one that I prefer, but I’m excited to see what thoughts I have on this topic.

Let’s Talk Bookish: Prologues and Epilogues

Published on September 24, 2021September 24, 2021 by Aria1 Comment

Hello, and happy Friday!! This week’s been really busy, as my second full week of the school year, but overall it’s been pretty good. I’ve read an okay amount, though I’ll hopefully have more time to over the weekend. Today I actually had my library volunteer orientation, which was so exciting! I also went to my high school’s writing club today at lunch. This was the second meeting, and it was so fun!! We had a prompt and wrote short stories, and I really like how mine turned out. I might try sharing it, or one of my other short stories here sometime. I wrote a lot over the summer, a few that I’m pretty proud of!!

Anyways, this week’s LTB topic is a choose your own adventure, so I decided to go back to a pretty old topic, one that I started to write back in July, and then just let sit in my drafts for a couple months. The topic I’m going to be doing today is: prologues vs. epilogues: are they necessary? (suggested by Fives @ Down the Rabbit Hole))

Let’s Talk Bookish: Age categories in books

Published on May 9, 2021 by Aria12 Comments

This post is a couple days late, but this week’s LTB topic is a great one!! This week’s official topic is What Make You Continue Picking Up YA/Middle Grade Books? (suggested by Sam @ River Moose Books), but I decided to change it a little for a few reasons.

The main reason was that I’m 14, which means that I’m in the YA age group, and am barely outside of the middle-grade age group. So, I’m going to instead talk more about what makes me like MG vs. YA vs. adult books, as well as some of my favorite books in each category!

Also, MG stands for middle-grade and YA stands for young adult!
