I am writing this blog post as a companion for a YouTube video but I would still love to get some discussion going here on the blog around this topic as well. Next month in June will be one year since Rowling’s big essay that doubled (tripled? quadrupled?) down on all of her beliefs and…

Criminal Minds Book Tag

It’s time to think of another booktube topic for Monday’s video and while I have now done my re-read (and first listen) of The Night Circus and could just finally do that video, I never post a booktube video without a companion blog post before it or on the same day, and I don’t want…

On My TBR Shelf [YouTube Companion Post]

This is a companion post to my YouTube video for Monday January 11, 2021, because I vow to always have a companion post to accompany my videos for those who would prefer to read them, and this week is neither a review, a previously written article, or a tag. Let’s talk about some of the…

Would You Rather Book Tag

I’m not sure who originally started this tag, and I was not technically tagged myself, but I found it on Howling Library‘s blog this week and I decided I’d do it. Why not, right? In this tag you answer the bookish “would you rather” questions posed by the person who tagged you (I’ll be using…

TSS Ship or Rip [Book Tag]

Back in 2015, YouTuber emmmabooks created the R.I.P. It or Ship It book tag, where you fill one (or two, or many) jars/mugs/glasses with book character names from a variety of books and draw names at random in pairs. Once you’ve got a random pairing you decide whether you ship it (approve of the potential…

The Game of Thrones Book Tag was originally created by Claire Rousseau, and although I was not tagged, I’ve decided to do it.
