Read through and add them to your TBR piles, and leave me a comment with any titles you would add to the list!
Read MoreI’m a huge podcast listener, and I’m into bookish podcasts almost as much as I’m into reading the books themselves. But there is such an abundance of podcasts out there (book-themed and otherwise) that it’s hard to know where to begin, so here are some of my favourites that I return to again and again to help you get started.
Read MoreThough the horror and thriller genres are typically dominated by men, there are plenty of brilliant books by female authors. I decided to curate a list of some of my favourite eerie books as well as ones that I can’t wait to read, to get us into the fall mood.
Read MoreI love letters. I believe that they are the purest form of communication. There is an intimacy to this medium that invites the readers to glimpse aspects of the writer’s character that they may otherwise never be privy to.

Read MoreWithin fictional media there’s certainly a repetitive depiction of sex workers, especially women, often reducing them to damsels in distress, shrouded in tragedy, living in extreme poverty or the perpetual victim of serial killers who we only meet when they’re a corpse. Here are some titles that break the mold.
Read MoreWomen in Translation month takes place in August of every year and started in 2014 as an initiative by U.S. book blogger Meytal Radzinski, who grew up in a bilingual household. When you consider that female, and female-identifying, authors are often relegated to the second shelf in their native language, it strongly suggests that there is also a barrier firmly in place when it comes to translating their work.
