Book of the Month: Little Fires Everywhere
A plan; “a detailed proposal for doing or achieving something”, “an intention or decision about what one is going to do”, or “a drawing or diagram made by projection on a horizontal plane, especially one showing the layout of a building or one floor of a building” as defined upon a one-word Google search. A plan doesn’t have to simply be a to-do list, an … Continue reading Book of the Month: Little Fires Everywhere
The Magic the World Really Needs
I think one of the most important facts I need to accept and understand is how I take my education for granted to such a high extent. I believe everyone who has and is getting a solid educational background should realize this. Yes, I complain a lot about all the schoolwork, whine and wish to not have so much that I have, and feel absolutely … Continue reading The Magic the World Really Needs
Book of the Month: Carve the Mark Duology
Summer is here, and hopefully more time to immerse myself into numerous more books and stories, while fangirling all over them. Well, that’s not exactly the case for me since I am doing summer school and have A LOT to do to prepare for the next year! But, still nothing stops me from not reading completely (okay, maybe, my schoolwork). This month’s Book(s) of the … Continue reading Book of the Month: Carve the Mark Duology
The “going-down-the-spiral” of our socialization
Apparently, humans are supposed to be highly and naturally social, or so I have heard. When we encounter each other, we instantly create a connection or a link that draws us together. Our automatic communication amongst each other is inevitable, and, well, this has remained constant and true since forever. But I am thinking, why just now, when a virus is taking over our world … Continue reading The “going-down-the-spiral” of our socialization
Book of the Month: The Hate You Give
Right now, our world is in a very difficult position. We have a global pandemic that has trapped every single human being into their homes, and there is the wide-spread of protests going on to fight racism that still takes place all over the world. It is in no doubt that at this point every person is feeling conflicted in some way or another. I … Continue reading Book of the Month: The Hate You Give
Book of the Month: The Book Thief
“Better late than never”, they say! Okay, if I have been able to publish this blog, that means I eventually set aside my physics, French, English, math, and biology work, and gotten down with this. No, I have not forgotten about my May book of the month, so here it is! At last, I have arrived with a new blog and the book of the … Continue reading Book of the Month: The Book Thief
Three Weeks of Quarantine
It has been officially three weeks of sitting at home in quarantine for me. With spring break ending last week, online classes are officially going to begin next week. I have been studying for the past three weeks, even without any school taking place, as one of the only ways to keep myself engaged, which was my number one tip in my other blog for … Continue reading Three Weeks of Quarantine

I hope that from these monthly reviews (spoiler free!), you all can have something new to explore to keep you engaged! Written by Martha Hall Kelly, Lilac Girls is a story about three women in three … Continue reading Book of the Month: Lilac Girls
Social Distancing Digitally
Last to last week, I decided to go off social media for about a week. A week may not sound that long, but for someone who has most of their social life on their phone, it is. It began on the evening of Friday, March 13 when I came back from the last day of school before spring break. I was completely drained from the … Continue reading Social Distancing Digitally
Continue to Live
I think we all can say that the past few days have been quite abnormal; being stuck at home, not being able to follow through with our regular routines, and repeatedly hearing news after news about the Coronavirus a.k.a COVID-19 that is pretty much running the world right now. Becoming confined within the walls of our homes with only a limited number of activities to … Continue reading Continue to Live
