Happy Pride month all! June is one of my favourite months of the year because it’s summer, it’s sunny, and I always feel hopeful and happy seeing people celebrating LGBTQIAP+ culture and queer folks. One of my favourite things to do during Pride month is to read as many queer books as possible. This year… Continue reading Pride month TBR 2022
May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, a time to celebrate the culture, achievements, and impact of Asian people, globally.

Ah 2021. Year two of the panini. A year of excitement and disappointment, little wins and big losses. In some respects, 2021 was like a dropped ice cream cone that’s slowly beginning to decompose in the midday sun.

It’s June, which means it’s finally pride month! This month, as with every June, I’m trying to read exclusively queer books (if possible), so my TBR is filled with LGBTQIAP+ goodness. It was also my birthday on 9th and I spent a lovely day in Liverpool, having lunch with my folks, walking through the docks,… Continue reading June 2021 TBR // Pride month and birthday excitement
March was a pretty steady reading month for me. I read eight books, which wasn’t as many as in February or January, but I found my second five star read of the year and an instant favourite, so it was a good month overall. The Split // ebook // 3.5 stars This is a slightly… Continue reading March 2021 Wrap Up // It’s late but it’s here
