I’m Emma (she/her/hers), and here is where I shriek about Book Outlet and comedy and sweets and podcasts and Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and French and all the other stuff I love. But mostly books.
I’m a college student majoring in English. (I’m sure this is not surprising to you; obviously my twin passions in life are books and unemployment.)
watercolor flower designs throughout the site from Gold and Berry.
THESE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS:
- Books: I wrote a ranked list of ten of ’em!
- Authors: Steinbeck, Fitzgerald, Austen, Lemony Snicket, Jonathan Safran Foer, Roald Dahl, & Emily Henry
- TV shows: The Office, Parks & Recreation, The West Wing, Community, Arrested Development, Master of None, Broad City, The Good Place, Brooklyn Nine-Nine (& no, I can’t narrow it down)
- I also love comedy and podcasts and a bunch of other stuff I don’t really talk about here but would love to talk about with you!

Hi Emma! Nice to see you have a post naming all the books you still havent read (Thats me, too) you ALSO love Alice in Wonderland (That’s my guilty pleasure) and I hate all cringey novels too!
I’ve been thinking to open a review blog since a very long time but everytime i get discouraged to do it. Can you please help me out here??!

thanks girl!! unfortunately those aren’t even close to all the books i haven’t read.
& you should totally do it! it’s been so much fun for me having this blog. it’s also the most low-pressure way to write reviews: you can post whenever, for any book – and no problem if you read a book and don’t feel like reviewing it! plus the community on wordpress is so super supportive.
let me know if you make one and i’ll give ya a follow!

right now your blog is private but i’ll follow when it isn’t! honestly all ya gotta do is pick a pretty theme and then fiddle around with it until you figure out what some of the buttons do. and then avoid the other buttons out of fear for eternity

Ahhh I love your blog already, and I’ve only read two pages & one blog post? Also, seeing you list Jane Austen as a favorite author makes me so happy! (I’ve never met anyone on GR who has a 2.xx average rating as well, wow. 💓)
Can’t wait to see more of your posts on my feed!! xx

Same, I hardly ever see classics appreciated, and when I do, it’s Bukowski or some other male author. :’)
(Do you also get roasted for it all the time, omg.)

roasted for the austen appreciation or roasted for the 2.something average? b/c the answer is yes, for both
