I was finally able to secure a new job. I have mixed emotions about it. Maybe not about the job itself- more so, about the transition into this new state of existence and the realization that this is where the leap of faith took me. The decision to take the…

Continue reading →: Book Review | The Girl I Was
I have been adamant on continuing the habit of reading over doom scrolling. It is much easier said than done, but damn did Jeneva Rose get me in a fucking chokehold with this novel. Initially I worried I was going to give up on the book because I found the…
