Hamilton the Musical – Film Review
It has been 10 whole days since Hamilton the Musical was released on Disney+ and I can't count how many times I've watched it since then. I have loved Hamilton since way back in 2016, I listened to the soundtrack none stop until I was lucky enough to see it in the West End in 2018 and then again in 2019. My dream was always to see the orignal cast on Broadway but there was never any way for this to happen until now! I have so many thoughts on this so I wanted to share them! Here is my review of Hamilton the Musical!
Re-reading The Hunger Games
Hello all, hope you are well! It has almost been 2 months since The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins was released (I really don't know how)! I read that book within a couple of days of its release and the fear I had of spoilers definitely helped me read it quicker. But, as soon as I finished reading The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes I had an urge to re-read the entire Hunger Games series, so that is exactly what I did. I thought today I'd discuss my thoughts on what it was like to re-read The Hunger Games almost 10 years since my first read through.
History of My Bookshelf Tag
Hello all, I hope you are well! I love a good book tag and always find them a lot of fun. I found this one not too long ago on The Little Contemporary Corner (a fave blog of mine)! It is the History of my Bookshelf tag and was created by Emmmabooks on Youtube. It is all about the history of your shelves, what you have read in the past and how your shelves have changed over the years.

Yet, Harriet is more interested in unleashing her own power, even if it means destroying everyone around her.

A Little Quote!
Hello all and I hope you are keeping yourselves safe! I absolutely love designing and have been doing it non-stop these past couple of month. Sometimes I do this on Canva other times I do it in the design software I have. Sometimes I just enjoy to mess around with an idea and see what… Continue reading A Little Quote!
My Auto Buy Authors
Today I wanted to talk about some of my auto buy authors. We all have them! Authors whose books you've read and loved and would buy anything that they write. Sometimes, you don't even read the synopsis and just buy their books because you know you love what the author writes. Here are my auto buy authors.
