Well hello hello! *coughs* I seem to leave the blogosphere for extended periods of time without warning or ceremony rather often, don’t I? Yeah, I know I do. It’s scandalous. Life (God) has given me so, so, SO much this year. I’ve gone out and done so many more things than I’ve ever done before!…
5 Solid Reasons N.D. Wilson is the Greatest Modern Author
I’m not here to start an argument or step on any toes. This shouldn’t even be a matter of controversy, although I know it is. I know a lot of people will have a difference of opinion on who is the greatest modern* author, and they’re completely welcome to it, just as I’m welcome to…
Collab: Amelie’s Top Ten Favorite Books of 2021 (so far!)
Hey all! I’m here to introduce my second ever collaboration post. Technically my first ever formal collab. Amelie @ Swordmaiden of the King has graciously agreed to this in order to help out my blog! When discussing our ideas for what to post about, we both decided that our favorite idea was listing our favorite…
Welcome to THE PLOT THICKENS, the Book Blog you’ve been waiting for…
I hardly know what to say in greeting, except that… WELL. Apparently I’m not dead, after all! Seriously, I have been gone for so long (my last post was published March 8th… heheh) and I feel terrible about that. My deepest apologies. Now that I have returned to declare I LIVE, I have another huge…
The Jane Austen This or That (this may be one of my favorite tags ever!!)
When I saw Hamlette answering these questions on her blog, I was intrigued. Then when I saw that her opinions on Mr. Knightley/Emma were the exact opposite to mine, I knew I just had to do the tag myself. Because I won’t stand by to see Mr. Knightley insulted. *shakes head firmly* Am I the…
The 10 Fictional Characters I Relate to (you might be surprised!)
You know those characters that you just KNOW how they feel? Those characters who have struggles, personalities, or roles similar to yours? Lately I’ve been considering all the characters I relate to, in good and bad ways, and decided it was a definitely post-worthy topic. The characters and their internal conflict really are one of…
Book Review: A Night Divided by Jennifer A. Nielsen (the suspense, sorrow, and hardship of living on the eastern side of the Berlin Wall)
*takes a deep breath* Wow. This book is a heart-wrenching, heart-warming, heart-stopping masterpiece of historical fiction. My heart went through a lot in this book and I don’t think it has quite recovered.💔 And if you want to know the truth, this book is so relevant right now. People need to read about the realities…
These are the Books I Disliked Most in 2020 (no offense to any of the books or authors mentioned herein!!)
The natural sequel to my previous post is here! The books I ha… um, severely disliked in 2020, all compiled in a list complete with the proper expressions of my dissatisfaction, annoyance, and general abhorrence of each one. Fun fact: I like using long, sophisticated language when I feel the time calls for it. 😉…
These Are the Books I Loved Most in 2020 (no matter what kind of a year it is, books are always better)
This post is written in honor of J.R.R. Tolkien’s birthday. Don’t forget to toast “The Professor!” this evening with your favorite drink (tea, coffee, etc.). 🙂 At the end of the year, the real most important thing to know is did I read good books this year. That’s the question I always ask myself with…
It’s 2021: (should I throw confetti or cry or both?) Here’s my Goals for the New Year
Happy New Year, my fellow Book Enthusiasts! 2020 was quite the year. It was the first time I experienced what a fearful society was like. And I didn’t like it. Along with most people, I wanted 2020 to end. Thinking about it, that makes me sad. How terrible to think that we spent all of…
