Bookblr intro~
Hello all! I'm new to bookblr so I thought I would introduce myself. I'm looking for blogs to follow so please let me know if you have any suggestions.

- ๐ฎ Book recommendations (by genre and a "Hidden Gems" category)
- ๐ค A list of my best reviews
- ๐ A far-from comprehensive list of authors on tumblr
- ๐ Monthly wrap-ups
About me:
- I'm 23 and a grad student
- I was born in Italy and that takes up about 50% of my personality
- I'm bisexual, which is the other 50% of my personality
My rating system:
โ โ โ โ โ - Either an instant addition to my favorites or an incredibly well written book, with stellar prose, intricate world building, and well-developed characters.
โ โ โ โ โ - A very enjoyable novel which lacked the extra spark or had a few issues regarding the content or execution.
โ โ โ โโ - A book which I liked and disliked in equal measure, leaving me very much on the fence. While it had praiseworthy elements, some aspect of it was lackluster enough to cancel out my enjoyment.
โ โ โโโ - The negative parts of this book completely overshadowed any enjoyable parts.
โ โโโโ - I reserve one-star ratings for books with exceptionally poor writing or blatantly problematic content. These novels took away all of the enjoyment of reading and took all my will-power to get through.
Favorite books:
- Stravaganza series by Mary Hoffman
- The Mirror Visitor Quartet by Christelle Dabos
- Sawkill Girls by Claire Legrand
- Foundryside by Robert Jackson Bennett
- The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison
- Bitterblue by Kristin Cashore
