How you doin people?

I finished friends yesterday and I AM OBSESSED WITH IT!

Anyways this is mah letter to Keefe Sencen someone please use your pathfinder to deliver it to the Lost Cities, thank you.

DEAR KEEFE, WHY?
WHY? WHY?
WHYY?????????????????????????????
What were you even thinking? Argh! You are one of those perfect characters but not so perfect characters (IK I make no sense). You just seem so perfect but we all know you are broken.
We can’t live with you, we can’t live without you. You are so STUPID, yet I have no clue why do I love you so much? Why are you one of my favorite characters?
Why couldn’t I have chosen someone with IDK, A LITTLE BIT OF MORE SENSE??????? And what were you even thinking? Why did you act so stupid you doofus?
I don’t know whether I want to punch you and slap you or hug you and console you! I know that you love to hide behind jokes but this isn’t one! IT’S LIFE! It’s complicated and it’s hard, it’s super confusing ALL THE TIME and by the time you figure it out you’re dead (though elves live longer so IDK about you)! To be really honest I have no clue what it is, BUT, I know one thing, it makes us all go through roller coasters. Roller-coasters of pain, hardships, sufferings and what not, and sometimes some people more than others, BUT it is also what makes you who you are, makes you stronger and independent, AND NOW SOPHIE HAS OFFICIALLY LOST ALL HER TRUST IN YOU AGAIN, CONGRATULATIONS!
If this keeps going on, I’m never gonna get more Sokeefe and will have to tolerate more Fitzphie Pizzaz *sighs*. I don’t know how to describe my feelings (but you do, don’t you? Trust the empath right 😉 ). Please just do me one teeny tiny favor, don’t be more stupid and THINK before you do something. Wait let me rephrase that DON’T think before you do something and let others do the thinking for you please, PLEASE🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺!!! (PS I expect answers to ALL my questions, each and every single one of them, I will be checking and if you don’t well then I can be way worse than Lady Gisela)

Discussion Post: Judging books by covers

Potterheadaanya25 Comments

Hello humans!! How are you all?

Judging books with covers that’s been my fatal flaw for ages!!

I mean people why are graphic designers there?? And why do authors spend so much time on covers and a new one with each edition?
Like it or not most people are like me and it’s seriously impossible not to judge a book and most of the times the books are represented beautifully by their covers and sometimes they are not 😒 (I used an emoji!! Mainly cause it’s world emoji day).

Usually whenever I am browsing and requesting books on net galley and adding books to my TBR on goodreads I get attracted by the covers and the titles the description and summary is second (and I usually don’t even read it).

So this has been something I have wanted to talk about for long and I really hope I’m not the only one who does this if you do it too do lemme know in the comments! (Seriously I am obsessed with gorgeous book covers and innovative titles I am lured by them ALL THE TIME).

Stay safe!

Keep reading!

Hey guys, how are you all? IDK how I’ve been, life is just endlessly going on……..
Also I made my bookstagram account a few days ago, do check it out!!! (@thefaletusiicanqueen)
So I wrote this poem because, well the reason is that my TBR literally controls my life and I still don’t read the books on it *sighs*.
Is it the same with all of you too?

Does your TBR scare you?

Heya nerds!
Random Fandom things is a series I just thought of for fun, basically here I’ll post Random Fandom Things (yeah IK took me 2 seconds to describe and yes I am lazy, moving on).
This first Random Fandom Thing I came up with by including one of my favorite fandom Percy Jackson (technically not PJ but I came to know of it from PJ so uh yeah) and a book series I used to love as a kid and now I find it quite unfortunate (lol, see what I did there xD )

Anyway here we go I get 0 marks for creativity hahah……….

Look away,
Look away, look away
Medusa will wreck your evening , your whole life, and your day
Every single statue is nothing but dismay
So, look away
Look away, look away
Just look away,
Look away—There’s nothing but horror and inconvenience on the way
Ask any stable person, “Should I watch?” and they will say:
Look away.
Look away, look away.
Look away, look away.
Look away, look away.

So what did ya think?
Did you get the series of which the theme song I choose(This sentence is grammatically super incorrect, but once again I am so lazy)?

What series is your favorite?

Book Tag- Closing the Chapter

Potterheadaanya30 Comments

Heya humans today I’ll be doing Closing the Chapter Book Tag, thank you so much Krupali for tagging me, she is a really awesome blogger go check out her blog 😀

Rules

  1. Include the tag image in your post.
  2. Revert the audience to the original creator– Musing of Souls.
  3. Link this post to your tag content, makes it easier for me to read!
  4. Tag as many people you like!
  5. Do not alter the original questions, though, you are allowed to add more questions to it!
  6. Just enjoy!

Chapter 1: Let me Cry

A book you loved so much that you just didn’t wish to finish it, link a song to it if possible!

I loved the Fault in Our Stars, though maybe it might have been to depressing, but you all should definitely read it!

So this has a complete playlist which you can view here

Chapter 2: Little to biggy

A book which includes transition of age (it may have flashbacks from past, just age transformation of some sort.)

Uhhhhhhhhhh, KOTLC has Flashbacks, and Anne Frank has transition of age, oof, IDK? Let’s just skip this one
I remember, The Malory Tower Series and The St Clare Series
*Just realizes that they are series*

Uhh yeah I don’t know, more like don’t remember so let’s just skip this one.

Chapter 3: Just move on

A book which you just wanted to finish as you did not enjoy it.

Set Fire to the Gods, I had to read this for a book club read and to say I did not enjoy it would be an understatement.

Chapter 4: Keep coming back.

A book which you read again and again because you love a character so much.

Well there are so many, if I choose one that would be soooo unfair to my other books so no I can’t choose.

Chapter 5: Piling up

A book which you have not opened but want to(for a long time), can be read or unread

The lord of the rings is in my TBR and I have been trying to read it, but then I find another book, and forget about it, (I even started it, but then exams, so I didn’t read it)

I tag ALL OF YOU!!!

Hope you all have a splendid day ahead!

Never Have I Ever…read a later book in a series before reading the first book

I have the famous five and secret seven series (and a few books of Noddy like reading the 20th before the 13th I think, I don’t actually remember)
I recently read the mysterious benidict society book 4 without reading the rest of the books.

Never Have I Ever…burned a book

I have burned paper, but nope never.

Never Have I Ever…read a book I knew I would hate

Yeah, well I kinda tried to read it.
So you see I picked up The Invisible life of Addie LaRue knowing it YA and I would hate it, but I sorta dnf-ed it, then I read after like a month or so and then finished in 2 hours, I knew I would be disappointed but I just wanted to read it to understand what the craze was about and I was not able to understand it, I was majorly disappointed and hate it.

Never Have I Ever…wrote a fanfiction about my favorite books

I write one every time I read a new book (in my head😂🤪)

Never Have I Ever…loved a book when I was young and hated it when I got older

Not exactly hated but yeah like a 5 star turned to a 2 star (Alice in Wonderland, IDK why but I just don’t like it anymore)

Never Have I Ever…dressed up as one of my favorite literary characters

I have tons of times.

Never Have I Ever…hated a book by an author I love

Nope never hated one.

Never Have I Ever…gone into a bookstore to buy one book and come out with many more

Uhhh guilty I have done that tons of times.

Never Have I Ever…read the end of a book before reading the beginning

I usually do that in all Nancy Drew books.

Never Have I Ever…read a book without the dust cover

I have only when it annoys me.

Never Have I Ever…skim read nearly half a book

I have done that ALOT of times.

Never Have I Ever…spoiled a book for someone.

Yeah I have done that tons of times.

Never Have I Ever seen the movie before reading the book

Nope, never done that.

Never Have I Ever lost a book

Uhh does my 3rd grade English Grammar book count then yes I did, but then found it in Grade 5🤪(don’t ask).

My Question: Never Have I ever read two books at one time

Yes I have done that tons of times

I tag
ALL OF YOU SPLENDID HUMANS

Here are the books-

Excuse my messy table
Look a guitar, I’ma read that one today
I just finished that yesterday
How has your day been today, what are you reading?

Book tags- The Bookish Snob Tag

Potterheadaanya26 Comments

Hey humans
Today I’ll do the bookish snob tag and thank you Riddhi for tagging me 😀
Do check out her blog (PS she’s close to 500 followers so why not help her get 500 😉 )

ADAPTATION SNOB: Do you always read the book before watching the film/ TV show?

Uhh yeah, I like to first imagine on my own and how the book would look like in my fantasy then if there is a movie and I like the book then I watch the movie or TV show so I get to tell others, “This is wrong and instead of this this happened in the books” (I love doing that, IDK why).

FORMAT SNOB: You can only choose 1 format in which to read books for the rest of your life. Which one do you choose: physical books, eBooks, or audiobooks?

I used to love paperbacks so if you had asked me this like an year ago I would have said paperback but ebooks I guess are more comfortable?
Like IDK how to explain and even though the paperbacks have an awesome feeling you can’t read them inside the blanket plus you enjoy a paperback way more after reading ebooks so it makes it more special, and you don’t get papercuts with ebooks as sometimes some books don’t have great quality of pages but are awesome.
As for audiobooks I have never listened to one and nor do I intend to, so for this one ebook wins (please don’t hate me cause of that, they have become more comfortable to me the past year).

SHIP SNOB: Would you date or marry a non-reader?

Uhh I don’t wanna answer this, personal questions, plus I really don’t know.

GENRE SNOB: You have to ditch one genre – never to be read again for the rest of your life. Which one do you ditch?

Romance, or biological books (the ones with facts about humans and cells and plants and that kinda thing)

UBER GENRE SNOB: You can only choose to read from one genre for the rest of your life. Which genre do you choose?

Uhh I can’t choose, I love mystery, poetry, fiction and FANTASY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(and I think I forgot one)
I can’t choose don’t make me, I am begging you

COMMUNITY SNOB: Which genre do you think receives the most snobbery from the bookish community?

Young Adult I guess?
