Hello lovelies, as you can see, I haven't posted a book review in over a year. Lots has happened in that time and I sincerely apologize. It's my goal to get back to posting regularly, as I have a huge backlog of books that I need to write reviews for. If you follow my goodreads then you know that I have still been reading, just not posting reviews.
I feel a life update is necessary before I start writing reviews because these life events will influence how I write my book reviews from here on. Yesterday was National Coming Out Day as well as Indigenous Peoples Day and earlier this year I came out as a non-binary lesbian (she/they). You might have noticed that most of my prior book reviews have had a homophobic undertone or that I was reviewing as a Christian with warnings about content that other Christians might deem inappropriate. Yeah...so....that was me repressing my sexuality and internalized homophobia and now that I'm out of the closet and have embraced my identity I will no longer be reviewing in that way. I turned 20 this past July and I am now a Junior in college, and recently my mom was in a bad car accident where she totaled her car and fractured two vertebrae as well as broke her tailbone. I very suddenly became a caretaker for her so now I'm balancing taking care of my mom, school, and work. Which has recently culminated into me failing my Chemistry test this morning due to not having enough time to study. Am I partially using this book review blog as a way to pretend that my life hasn't fallen apart a bit? Maybe...don't judge me for it. Anyways, I'm excited to start sharing book reviews as I want them and without a religious filter, just me and my honest opinion. I hope you guys enjoy the onslaught of book reviews coming for you, and if you do, don't forget to like, comment, and share with your friends as well as follow me on social media for more book content or just Rachel content. Thanks! P.S. I started writing short stories on TikTok (@rachel.moffett) which has turned into longer, more detailed short stories on Wattpad (All The Lonely People by aLittleBirdyToldMe12) and ao3 (All The Lonely People by aLittleBirdy01), check them out if you're interested!
