Blog Hiatus | #TiffinNYC!

Hello friends! Just dropping in to let you know about my blog hiatus! I’ll be at Book Expo in New York City for the next week and I’m probably not going to get any posts up.

The Sun is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon | Review

The Sun is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon | Review

Review: The Sun is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon You guys. I don’t usually like insta-love books. I don’t normally like books where characters meet and immediately know that they are going to be together forever. Hopeless romanticism often frustrates me. But look, if you’re going to write an insta-love book, then it should damn well be written like The Sun is Also a Star. It should have layered, complex characters with crystallized beliefs who banter super well. Characters who are influenced by more than just each other, and who, in one extraordinary day, share their vulnerabilities and their […]

GIVEAWAY + #BEA15 Recap: Day 3 & the New York weekend!

Hi guys, this is the last of my BEA15 recaps – phew, I’m exhausted just reliving this. Let’s get to it! FRIDAY We got to BEA early (but not too early) so that Sarah (You Should Read This) could get in line for the Six of Crows signing with Leigh Bardugo. I had extra time, so I went to drop off our suitcase (VERY IMPORTANT TIP), and then ran into Rainbow Rowell, said hi, and hugged her! I knew I wasn’t going to get into her line later on, but honestly, all I really wanted was to do that because […]

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 […]

Hey guys, this year, I’m going to BEA for the first time and I’m crazy-excited.

This is me! Please, please come say hi if you see me – I’m really nervous about going to this myself, but I’m pretty outgoing, and I will talk books, movies, music, Lizzie Bennet Diaries, whatever with you! =) Wednesday: 8:00am – 5:00pm BEA Blogger Con – […]
