Milk Fed by Melissa Broder | Mini Review
Book Review: Milk Fed by Melissa Broder Many have called this book, sexy, erotic, and funny. I would not use any of those words to describe it. It was fascinating, strange, repulsive, and uncomfortable. This book isn’t really just about an eating disorder or mommy issues. It was a weird exploration of desire and hunger—for food, sex, intimacy, love, and…

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue | Mini Book Review
REVIEW: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 Genre: Historical Fantasy, FictionThemes: Fantasy, Historical, Romance I really enjoyed “The Invisible Life of Addie Larue”. I kept seeing great reviews but I also heard it had a slower pace. It’s true, this is a really slow burn. BUT Enjoyably slow and so worth it.

I Fixed My Insomnia After YEARS of Having a Terrible Sleep Schedule
I’m not sure that I will never deal with insomnia again, but I can say it’s been months, at least 8 months if not longer that I have had a good and consistent sleep schedule. This has never happened before and I just feel very confident that my sleep schedule will stay consistent. I have struggled with insomnia for years,…
Why I’m No Longer Tracking Macros or Focusing on Weightloss
I have been cautious in the world of macro tracking and IIFYM (if it fits your macros) because while it can be an efficient method for reaching your goals, it can also cause disordered eating. I probably knew better, but after my bulk in 2019...
You Had Me at Hola by Alexis Daria
This book kept popping up in my feed with good reviews and I liked that this was a Latine/x story written by a Latina author. I wasn’t too sure what I was getting into beforehand, to be honest. Romance is just fun sometimes; that’s really what I would say about this story-it’s fun and It’s hot. (read: get your Tinder…
