Hogwarts Tag

I was tagged by Katie of Never Not Reading to do the Hogwarts Tag! It’s been a loooong time since I did a tag, but I figured I’d come back swinging on the day of my graduation. So when this post goes live, I’ll be getting ready to take group photos in my gross graduation robe. Fittingly, I’ll have my new Hogwarts robe (made by the amazing Lucy Saxon) waiting for cooler photos after the ceremony, complete with my Hermione wand and an owl (not real, I promise). I don’t know if you can tell by the fact that I […]

#BookReview: THE TIGER’S WATCH by Julia Ember

Another Julia Ember book! I read every book she writes because she has such a unique style, and I feel like I learn and grow whenever I read her stories. Her fantasy books are often on the shorter side (quicker and easier to digest) while also featuring diverse characters. In The Tiger’s Watch, Ember takes us to another world reminiscent of East Asia (I’m thinking a blend of Burma and Thailand), where a nation is being invaded by another without magic. Our main character, Tashi, is a non-binary inhabitor, able to slip into the mind of their bonded tiger. I […]

#BookReview: SOULMATED by Shaila Patel

I got an ARC of this months ago, while I was studying and therefore not in the best position to read. Well, I waited long enough. As part of The Reading Quest, I had to read a book with a one-word title, and this came up in my ‘to-read-arc’ Goodreads shelf. I remember being very excited for it before I got the ARC, and reading the blurb renewed that interest, so I thought this would be the perfect opportunity! And it’s the first book I’ve finished since my MBA came to an end! The book is told in alternating points […]
