At the rate of the time passing, we will probably be done with 2021 by the end of next week. Meaning! The year! Has been going! So fast! I'm still unable to process how much has occurred over these past two months. Life right now does feel like a ship that's continuously swaying more intensely… Continue reading Aria and… February and March / important reads, my comfort songs + more!
If I could write my essays and research papers at the same speed as I did writing this post, life would have a whole new meaning. Reading is truly an unexpected process - we never know if we will enjoy it until we actually read it. Sometimes, they don’t meet the expectations that we held… Continue reading The Anti TBR Tag / thoughts on ACOTAR + influence of bookstagram
It's official: time no longer exists. Even though it is a conceptual structure created by humans to provide a sense of order, time measured by clocks seems to diverge off of its mechanical form the older we grow. Does that make any sense, or is that just further evidence that I... am not functioning with… Continue reading Aria and… January / overall chaotic (bookish) start of 2021
There are no words to describe what I felt when Taylor Swift was trending on YouTube right after evermore released. I'm still in shock, honestly, how Taylor Swift blessed us with TWO surprise albums this year??

It is almost unbelievable… Continue reading Aria and… a little life update / some reflections and a promise

I absolutely adored "Spin the Dawn", and I had highly anticipated the release of its finale. I was… Continue reading Unravel the Dusk by Elizabeth Lim / a dark and fiery conclusion to a beloved duology
August did slip away into a moment in time. Somehow. I'd never thought that summer 2020 would come to an end, but here we are. This past few months have definitely been hectic, uncertain, but full of surprises. As the new school year soon approaches, it also means that I bid farewell to perhaps one… Continue reading Aria and… August / too many ebooks + the last summer sunset
There's several things I must do before I start reading. You know how sometimes every way you're sitting just feels wrong and you just can't find that one comfortable position? That is essentially me, 24/7 with reading. Adding on that, I often need to grab my mason jar (yes, I only use that jar), a… Continue reading Rating All My Reading Spots / can I choose a favourite??
To summarize July in one word: hectic. This month felt like the longest time during the day, but the quickest when looking back after a week. As I pass my first month of blogging *me being shook*, I think that it would be fit to have a wrap-up/compilation of everything that happened during the past… Continue reading Aria and… JULY / recap of my first month blogging + more!
Characters are a book's heart and soul for so many reasons. They make the story alive and breathing, and somehow draws you into their world. You see them grow as a person, and you couldn't be more proud as they fight struggles and celebrate breakthroughs. The most surprising of all, it can connect you with… Continue reading 5 Characters I Would Be Best Friends With / ft. my infinite love!
