See the full list of topics HERE. Last week’s topic: Introvert or extrovert? To be honest, I don’t have any guilty pleasures. I don’t watch soap operas (I hate them, actually) or read steamy novels. There’s things I like that could probably be considered guilty pleasures, because they might make most people feel guilty. But I have no shame haha! Here are a few: Boy bands. I still love listening to old Backstreet Boys songs! And I still know all […]

I feel like I’m almost always the black sheep compared to the majority of the population. Sometimes I really feel like I’m missing something that made them like it, but sometimes I wonder: Am I just too picky? Here’s a few examples: I don’t like most romance.

This is a hard review to write, because this book inspired absolutely nothing for me. No emotion, no interest, nothing. Overall, this book was just ‘meh.’ Maybe even less than that. It’s not that I hated it, but I didn’t really like it either. This book was just….there. It won’t leave a lasting impression and I probably won’t remember anything about it a month down the road. Honestly, it was a struggle to finish it. The characters were flat and I couldn’t […]
