1 year blogiversary!! // Answering your questions + screaming endlessly!! Also massive thank you!!

Finally the day has come.

The day I’ve been silently waiting for. Actually not really. If you haven’t been on my blog lately, for the past few days I’ve been screaming about my blogiversary (and I’m sorry for being so annoying) which is today on the 22nd!! (I know it’s the 23rd now) And I’m writing this post today which is a lesson to you all that procrastination kills the cow.

It’s so weird to think that just 366 days back (on 21st of October) my life was so different and look at me now. 1 year of blogging, 1 year of writing posts, 1 year of talking to you all and trying to make new friends!

Things Bookworms love to hear (we’re very proud creatures)

Bookworms like to be pleased.

But apparently some people don’t get it and straight up love to irritate bookworms. So I have created this post to help you if you ever encounter one of us bookworms. Although it’s very rare since we spend most of our time reading under a blanket. (jk I never do this. I’m always in a reading slump)

As much as we hate to talk, when it comes to books we just can’t stop. Maybe that’s why people are afraid of us. Who knows?

7 Things book bloggers want more than anything else in the world (apart from dominating the world)

I am particularly a content person.

Actually not really. But when it comes to book blogging there are certain things that I feel I want / need / deserve because book blogger are clearly the best and deserve the whole world.

But apparently people don’t seem to understand this. And they think that they can do whatever they want to book bloggers and we’ll not get hurt. Not really. Because we do get hurt and if we ever get hurt, these are the 7 things you can give us/ do for us to comfort us and to make us feel better about ourselves.

Shipping: Why I can hate it sometimes and makes me run away from it (ft. a small list of why it makes me happy sometimes)

I’m pretty sure you all love your otps.

I mean that’s why it’s  your otp. Right? I was thinking about this topic when I realized that shipping and ships in general are such a big and important part of books. I mean take ships out of books and well you’ll end up with a lot of other stuff that is important in books (I have come to a conclusion that i never did and never will make sense) but still shipping is a big part.

So for people who don’t know shipping, it is basically when you ship two people (fictional or real) romantically or as friends (but people usually ship romantically).

Why it’s okay to not be perfect in the blogging community (ft. me trying to preach)

Look, nobody is perfect.

That’s it. That’s the whole post. Not really. But that’s what this post is really about. Everyone wants to be perfect and everyone wants others to be. And of course the blogging community is not free from this curse.

There are thousands (maybe millions) of websites and blogs on the internet. Some we like while some we lOVE!!! And sometimes we start thinking of these bloggers as someone who’s very different from us. And it’s not just bloggers. It can be actors or youtubers you like as well. But anyway, what I mean is that these people who we see or read about through our screens are not actually real/humans to us.

Books I’ve changed my mind about + why I change my mind about books// Also a feedback survey

I change my mind a lot.

And when it comes to books,,,oooh boy my mind keeps swinging. And honestly I’m not a fan of this at all. I mean one moment I like a book and the other moment I’m confused and contemplating my whole entire life.

It sucks but at the same time I’m okay with it. Because we’re human beings and we have to go through a lot of feelings each day and it’s normal that our opinions about books change after some time.*

How negative can a negative review be?? + why negative reviews are important

I don’t make the rules.

But I get annoyed with negative reviews sometimes. Yes negative reviews are also important (plus the tea *sips*) but the way bloggers frame them makes me ugggghhhh really REALLY angry!

But at the same time I love reading them because it’s always fun to read other people’s opinions. Basically I am a mess because I don’t know what I’m talking about.
