A perk of the way I structured my blog is… you can read posts that interest you (as much as I wish you read it all)
Weekly posts! Sunday @10 am! Amount may vary within the week
Just realized π Sunday posts are mostly bookish (+ the life update!) Posts throughout the week mostly pertain to my life!
Beware: Reading blogs will TRY to avoid spoilers but viewing blogs are fair game π Since itβs something you can watch… Theyβre written thinking π€ youβve seen it! If not the case, be aware of that!
Love β€οΈ reading blogs! That explains why I do them so much! π
I avoid spoilers BUT IF I do, Iβm sorry!
Note: Just realized (if yβall care) TBRs are a ππ½ Wrap-ups are a π See my reading blogs to know what Iβm reading and my thoughts π
Love β€οΈ the thought-provoking-ness of reading! Thatβll be reflected in my notes π!
