About the Blog

  • I first started blogging in February of 2014 on the wordpress platform. I changed my blog to be under the blogger format in late July of 2015. I mainly book blogged until recently, when I decided that there is more to life than a good book. 
  • In the current days, you will most likely find posts on everything under the sun that strike my fancy, make me tick, or even things that make me want to talk. 
  • This is my own little personal corner of the internet, and I'd be glad for you to join me on my adventure that I like to call life. 

About the Blogger 


  • My name is Veronica Jade. I have other body parts besides feet, but my profile picture will tell you otherwise. I am a full time student. 
  • Some of my hobbies include: reading books, writing books, writing dark poetry, obsessively pinning everything on pintrest, reading book and craft blogs, dancing wildly to upbeat, old, and just plain deep things, playing lacrosse, journaling any thought that pops into my mind, and playing guitar. 
  • Some other things that I like are: fruit, the female remake of ghostbusters, simplistic web design, gorgeously designed blogs, book photography, photography in general, Hamilton the musical (though I am yet to actually see it), jamming in my room, painting things I find online, collages, and debating both small and large issues.

How Does Unique Formatting in Books Affect Your Reading Experience?

Image
How does the formatting of a book affect your reading experience? I usually enjoy unique formatting in my books, but I recently read the first half of Illuminae before putting it down. I quit reading Illuminae because of the formatting. While the whole book being composed of lab reports, wikipedia articles, and IM messages was a cool concept, it made the story hard to follow. Many people enjoyed Illuminae because of the unique formatting, and others enjoyed it because they thought it had a good story. The formatting, for me made the story drag and I had no idea what was going on until about page 150. The only part I enjoyed was the interviews with some of our characters because it was only then that you really got to see the characters. I enjoy both books that have unique formatting and books that have traditional formatting. However, I think that if a book does have unique formatting, the formatting should add to the story, not take away from the story. When I was reading I...

Quotes Show You A Story (ft. Say What You Will)

Image
Since I believe that if you pick certain quotes out a story, you will be shown the story, I have now made a new feature for it. Oh, and this Quotes Show You A Story will be focusing on Say What You Will By Cammie McGovern.  • "Living in a body that limits my choices means I am not a victim of fashion or cultural pressures because there is no place for me in the culture I see." I think this quote really shows you how Amy was perfectly fine with not experiencing life, experiencing what she was meant to experience until the right person came along.  • "Counting was a relief. Almost a pleasure. A way to measure and contain a world that otherwise spun too quickly for him." This quote about Matthew's OCD. He tries to control an imperfect world, and he just can't. He can't control it and when Amy tries, she can't either. I didn't always like how the unrealatable issues were dealt with in this book, but I do really like  this quote.  ...
