Book List: Top 5 Favorite Thriller Books
Book List: Top 5 Favorite ThrillerĀ Books
Hey! This will be my first ever post using my new blog name and I am thrilled to write this list because as we all know, Halloween is fast approaching, you guys! Hereās a little fact about me, Iām not the biggest fan of the horror genre as I easily get scared and spooked out by the smallest of things, but I do love a good thriller. Thrillers are the closest I can get to horror, so I have collatedā¦

We needed a breather from so many things, and it was really good thing that we found this place online. The whole place was very clean, spacious, and safe. (moreā¦)

I'm engaged!
Iām engaged!
To be perfectly honest, I donāt know how to write this post without ugly-crying in front of my laptop! But I would like to start by saying that our story would never be complete without the whirlwind romance of how it all started. This post is pretty much the sequel to all of my previous attempts of writing the story of us. Jeez, it still feels surreal calling him my fiancĆ© ā weāve openly talkedā¦

Book Tag: 'Goodreads Was Wrong' Tag
Book Tag: āGoodreads Was WrongāĀ Tag
Iāve been a Goodreads member since 2011 and through the years, it has been my #1 source of book recommendations and new releases. I also use it to track my annual reading goals and number of read books in my lifetime. Aside from that, I also use it to organize titles by genre, author, etc. I know Goodreads may sometimes feel like a ātemptationā when it comes to adding new titles to our TBRs, butā¦

Book List: 7 Anticipated Dark Academia Books
Book List: 7 Anticipated Dark AcademiaĀ Books
Dark academia is a sub-genre that have rapidly grown in the past couple of years.

That being said, I plan to remedy that by listing some of my most anticipated dark academia books coming out this year.

27 Years
I just turned 27 yesterday! If you would ask me 10 years ago what I envisioned my life to be at 27, Iām not sure what I would have told you, but Iām sure that I wouldnāt have envisioned my life to be the way it is right now. I could have told that I envision myself practicing whatever it is that Iāve learned in those four years in college. I would have never, in a million years, envisioned myselfā¦

Hi, everyone! Iāve been MIA again for quite some time there. Itās just that this pandemic and the current situation of my country has been taking a toll on my mental health. Iāve also been busy with other personal things, I guess. Another thing that has been bothering me lately is the sudden rise of hate crimes against the AAPI community recently, and I just canāt sit around in silence knowingā¦
