    Cute Mutants Book Tag

    6th April 2021

    In honor of my friend SJ Whitby’s Cute Mutants Vol 4: The Sisterhood of Evil Mutants release TODAY, I am excited to share this book tag originated by El/Art (@inkandplasma), Andee (@mousereads), and Finn (@evidentlyb). You can read El’s original post here.

    Also, if you haven’t read the series already, I highly recommend giving it a try. You can read my review of Cute Mutants Vol 1: Mutant Pride here.

    Under the Tree Tag: Lucky Money Edition

    18th February 2021

    A long time ago, Morgan @ Morgan Is Reading Again tagged me to do Books Under the Tree tag (thank you!), which was originally created by Jessica and Christeena @ Game of Tomes. But growing up, I’ve never had a tree big enough to put presents under, I thought I’d put a little twist on the Christmas tag and make it about Lunar New Year.

    This is the second Lunar New Year that I missed celebrating with my family. The New Year celebration usually lasts a few days and we consider the fifteenth day, Lantern Festival, as the last day of Lunar New Year festival.

    Fall Time, Cozy Time Tag in 2020

    3rd October 2020

    Hi, lovely people (and bots, if there are any)! I know I haven’t been super engaging lately nor posted in *checks calendar* five days (gasp), but I am back now! My first midterms have officially ended and I’m honestly wiped. This weekend is going to be so much better because not only am I blogging again, I am also planning on reading a lot more to make up for all the lost time over the past few weeks!

    Thanks to the bewitching Mel @ Cotton Candy Book Witch for tagging me! Check out their wonderful post here. The Fall Time Cozy Time Book Tag was originated by booktuber Sam’s Nonsense, and I am going to use this as another perfect chance to highlight under-appreciated sapphic indie books I love! (If you haven’t seen my list of 2021 sapphic releases by LGBTQ+ indies, read it here, bookmark it, and check back again later for more updated info and new books!)

About Me

Lí-hó!! I am Hsinju (they/she), a Taiwanese book blogger, writer, and full-time grad student in engineering. Here, I mainly review books featuring authentically represented LGBTQ+ characters and/or written by LGBTQ+ authors. You’d usually find me going about life with my heart stuck in the last book I finished.
