Book Blogger Love-A-Thon 2015: The Questionnaire

Hi guys, for the next two days, I’m (selectively) participating in the Book Blogger Love-A-Thon hosted by Alexa Loves Books. This is an event to help spread the love and positivity in our book blogging community.  First off, a questionnaire so that you can get to know me (and vice-versa! I’ll be going to comment on some blogs tomorrow – please leave links if you can!) What’s your name? Tiffanie – or Tiff Where in the world are you blogging from? Toronto, Ontario, Canada How did you get into blogging in the first place? I’ve been reading YA for years, […]

BEA Recap + Giveaway: Day 3, or Where I Lose All My Professionalism and Make A Total Arse of Myself

Hey guys, I’m back with Part 2 of my BEA recap – read on for some of my most embarrassing moments ever! BEA Day 3: Galley Drops, Signings, Authors, and Blogger Outings, Oh My!

BEA Recap: Blogger Con, musicals, and Day 1

Hi all! I’m back from BEA and somewhat back to real life again – last week was insane for me, as I did BEA, hopped a flight back to Toronto, and got to see all of my old friends at my 10 year reunion from university. On top of that, our entire apartment is in disarray because we’re moving very soon…we bought a house and we take possession in about a week! Anyway, you came here for BEA news, not my personal life! I got into New York late Tuesday and got settled into my friends’ place in Brooklyn. Note […]

A Letter to You, My Readers: Where I’ve Been and Where I’m Going

Hi guys, For the past few months, I’ve been taking a lot of me time. You may have noticed that this blog has been silent, even though I’ve been tweeting about books and things. The reason for this? Mainly, being busy. When I made my blog manifesto a few months ago, I promised that real life would always come first. And this time, it really did. A few personal things happened that caused me to stop blogging in October, and then I just…never really got back.  Part of this was because I started two new jobs in the space of […]

Friday Rants: Blogger Guilt and a Blog Manifesto

Disclaimer: this post is really for me. Proceed if you want something personal; do not pass go if you’re not interested in my personal thoughts. Happy Friday, everyone! So even though I’ve had my new computer for almost three weeks, it took me awhile to get myself to write again. You may have noticed that despite my “I’m back” message last week, I wasn’t REALLY back until yesterday. This is because, frankly, it’s hard to come back to blogging after over a month away. As much as I love blogging and writing, I have to admit that having the time […]
