Hey loves! Thank goddess it's Friday, right? I have been swamped lately! But! I've finished all my deadlines (on time) and have some time on my hands, I plan on relaxing, reading, and watch the new season of Queer Eye (yaaaaaassss Kween). It's gonna be nice loves. Also as a nice surprise, my OwlCrate came! Which means it's time for *drum roll* AN OWLCRATE UNBOXING If you're new to this blog, I've gotten OwlCrate in the past that you can read, here , here , and here . Yes, I've gotten a lot of these. A little bit about OwlCrate if you're not familiar with the company, they are a monthly YA subscription box, where each month they will send you a new YA novel (with an exclusive cover and signed book) along with 4-6 other "bookish" goodies based on a theme that changes each month.

Hi loves! I'm so sorry for being MIA last month, I had a lot of deadlines I need to get done and I wasn't feeling great, not only physically, but just feeling crappy about myself in general. Luckily, I just got back from my recent vacay and I'm feeling a thousand percent better and ready to write. So where did I go? New York City Baby!!!!! *Cue Schuyler Sisters singing "In the greatest city in the world"* As I may have mentioned a few time before my best friend Kat   lives in Brooklyn and just graduated from library school *proud bestie moment, have not stopped crying* and a few months ago she invited me to come down for BookCon, which is like ComicCon but for BOOKS *squeals* naturally I accepted because I haven't seen my plutonic soulmate in two years, and I missed her very dearly. So last weekend I went to the big apple and let me tell you, I had to best time EVER!!!! (Don't worry, I have photos, well, Kat took photos, I was too awestruck) Oka
