About

Hi! I’m Olivia (she/her), and I’m so happy you’re here. :)) Here’s a picture of me with a book in front of my face, because that’s somewhat of my natural habitat (although I also can often be found dancing under sunsets or wherever there’s a lot of chocolate).

Reading has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and my passion for books led me to start a book blog back in 2014. Years later, I’m still here, screaming about my favorite young adult contemporaries on my little corner of the Internet. Getting to talk about books I love with the amazing people in this community is one of the best things ever, and I love this space so much.

A few things about me~

  • INFJ and an enneagram 2w1
  • Christian
  • Former dancer (always a ballet dancer at heart)
  • Hopeless romantic & idealist
  • Taylor Swift is perpetually on repeat
  • Making Spotify playlists and Pinterest boards are my love languages
  • My favorite book of all time isΒ Anne of Green Gables
  • Would fall in love with Harry Potter, Gansey, or Mike Wheeler if given the chance
  • Loves going to coffeeshops but always orders hot chocolate
  • Rainy days speak to my soul
  • In love with rom coms and period dramas

If you stick around, I guarantee you’ll learn a lot more about me, but I hope this was a somewhat decent introduction. Thank you again for stopping by! I look forward to fangirling together about books and everything else, too. <33

  5. Hello, Olivia!

    I just found your blog and it looks awesome! I can’t wait to see your content! πŸ˜ƒ I enjoy reading books, too! I hope to become a more avid one, though. I plan on reading 20 books over the summer, too! I’m a daughter of the King (most importantly!), somewhat of a writer, blogger, online homeschooler (I like school a lot! A little strange, I know πŸ˜„), AIO listener, and much more! 😊

    • Hi, Heaven!

      Thank you so much, you’re so kind.πŸ’“Good luck with all your reading goals for the summer! Haha, I don’t think it’s strange to like school…I like it too, just not all the homework and stress part of it. XD Again, thank you so much for such a kind comment! πŸ™‚ Your name is beautiful, by the way.
