Everything is, everything exists, only because I love.

    a love letter to my 2023 reads

    Hello Bookworms, the year has ended. Assuming you didn’t already know. Perhaps you’ve been in some sleeping beauty nap situation; if so, I am here to inform you that it is officially 2024. I had talked in a previous post about how much reading meant to me, where I touched on the particular benefits (I Continue reading

    winter means pillows of comfort

    Hello, bookworms; this was originally meant to be a post about November. It then turned into December, and now it’s about winter. The process of giving myself more time is a great one. These past few months have flown by. They always do, and so for that, I am not surprised. It’s comforting to be Continue reading

    word of the day – jolabokaflod

    Hello, bookworms; I’m almost certain this is a new word for many of you. It certainly was for me. And as someone who loves “collecting” words, if you can even call it that, this was a delightful discovery. I do enjoy collecting various things, and I don’t see why words cannot fall under this category. Continue reading

    In Praise Of Sociology with dr. tina fetner

    Hello Bookworms; in defiance of my usual literary content, today’s post is in conversation with one of my favourite professors. Albeit an author herself, Dr. Tina Fetner is the President of the Canadian Sociological Association and an associate professor at McMaster University. In my first year, long before I settled on pursuing a sociology minor, Continue reading

    spending fall with Søren Kierkegaard

    Hello bookworms, one thing about studying abroad, to warn you all, is that you will miss your mother. This may seem glaringly evident; however, past Erin, silly old me, silly August Erin…quite overestimated her abilities. The only upside I can recount to being away from my lovely mom is that she cannot stop me from Continue reading

    book review – giovanni’s room by james baldwin

    Hello bookworms, for the past few months, I’ve had a sudden change in my luck with the books I was reading. Thank you to my fairy godmother. I must’ve been blessed, but I went from feeling mediocre about the novels I had read to discovering new favourites almost every read. Giovanni’s room was one I Continue reading

    book recommendations for my best friend

    Hello bookworms, few things come close to reading and cherishing an incredible book, but letting ALL your friends know and shoving it down their throats for months is a close second. I feel like a god when they finally read it, and I can witness the emotions I felt in someone else.. it’s even better Continue reading

    this book changed my life…now what?

    Hello bookworms, do you ever get that sentiment during a book where you just know it’ll make an impact? You don’t know how, or why exactly, and how you will change, but the book is so particular, perhaps only unique to you, making it even more perfect. How does one move on? As a reader, Continue reading

    summer is for : binge reading books

    Hello Bookworms, I’ve always been the type of reader who prefers to read in a way some call binging. It’s just how I am. If I love a book (which I most likely have to finish), I will not stop until it’s done. And if that means reading a book for four hours straight, then Continue reading

    yet another book list

    Hello bookworms, this is a book list, yes, another one… What can I say? It’s my new obsession. It seems it’s shifted from mini-reviews to this; what’s next? Nobody knows. Sometimes you want to be dramatic. Aka, sometimes I want to be dramatic. And beyond just doing so in my daily life, it’s incredible that Continue reading
