Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race this past weekend. I don’t think anyone is shocked. If you were following the news, there were inside reporters that he was considering dropping out, along with the push from pretty much every senator for him to drop out, this was inevitable. What’s also not surprising is …

I wouldn’t consider myself a true crime fanatic but there are cases that pop up here and there that I get fascinated by. Mostly the unsolved or still debated ones- the first one that comes to mind is the Amanda Knox case which my AP Lang class studied in my junior year of high school. …
Before I start this, I would like to preface- I hate Colleen Hoover. I say this because I’m about to say something very pro-Hoover, but I need you to understand my extreme distaste for her. I was in a six-year reading slump from going into the sixth grade to ending my junior year of high …

In the spirit of deep diving into my Goodreads, I want to do a deep dive into my Spotify because I was thinking about how I had to try and explain to my dad why I think Stranger in the Alps is one of the best albums of all time. My music taste is broad; …
A week before I moved into college, while I was on vacation, I got a text that instantly sent me to tears. My best friend, who was supposed to be my suitemate, would not be returning for the upcoming school year. It was impossible to be mad at her- she prioritized her mental health and …
As an English Major, I didn’t actually read that much until last summer. I never really had a way to enjoy it in my free time because I was so focused on writing. I also didn’t really have an outlet to learn about popular books, so it wasn’t that I resented reading. It just wasn’t …
