She/Her | 28 | British | Feminist | Scorpio | Slytherin Portia — twenty-something literature graduate, reading a lot of books and working in publishing. When I’m not reading I like to make a mess in the kitchen, watch films that make me cry, and pet good dogs. I post my own reviews and other bookish content, alongside reblogging posts from lovely fellow booklrs. If you're looking for just my posts, you can find them on my Wordpress site.

classic lit hits different than modern lit not because modern lit lacks depth but because there’s something so incredible about reading something and knowing that hundreds of years before you people were living, breathing, loving, the same way you do now. like one hundred years ago someone read these same words and felt them and read them just as you do today, and you’re connected despite the times that separates you

Aesthetics: 
By the time they reached Care of Magical Creatures in the afternoon(…)The day had become cool and breezy, and, as they walked down the sloping lawn toward Hagrid’s cabin on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, they felt the occasional drop of rain on their faces.

Six For Sunday: Favourite characters from series
Six For Sunday is a weekly blog series created by Steph @ ALittleButALot. Prompts for April, May, and June 2020 are now up, and May’s prompts are all about series! Today I’m talking about my favourite characters from series I’ve read. I also thought it would be fun to include fan art of my faves instead of photos from TV/film adaptations.

02.04.20 | Do You Believe in Fairies?
“... because you see, when a new baby laughs for the first time a new fairy is born, and as there are always new babies there are always new fairies. They live in nests at the top of trees; and the mauve ones are boys and the white ones are girls, and the blue ones are just little sillies who are not sure what they are.”
