I don't know if anyone else feels this way but man am I struggling to comprehend how we are somehow already in July. I say this every year but I just feel like as I get older, each year goes by quicker and quicker. 2024 has been a year of decent reads so far. I... Continue Reading →

Weekly Book Review 3/26 – 4/1
Title: The Serpent King Author: Jeff Zentner My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Why I gave this rating: Jeff Zentner is one of the most poetic writers I’ve read in probably my entire life.

Title: My Body Author: Emily Ratajkowski My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Why I gave this rating: If you asked me or many others who Emily Ratajkowski was, I think many of us would say who?

In the Wild Light by Jeff Zentner
