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.

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…
Iceland in January: Trip Recap
Camron and I started 2020 off strong with a trip to Iceland. I had been wanting to go to Iceland for a few years and kept putting it off. To be honest with travel you kind of just have to commit or it’s easy to find reasons why you can’t make it happen. At least that is the case for…

Should You Book Tours When Traveling?
Spoiler, Go Ahead, Take the Tour. When traveling you should go after an authentic experience; you should really get to know the culture, the people, the neighborhoods. I have always been told to stay where the locals stay, eat where the locals eat and well, do what the locals do. This is solid advice, but sometimes it is worth it…
