Tell Me Something Tuesday Round-Up (April 2025)


Tell Me Something Tuesday is a weekly meme created by Heidi at Rainy Day Ramblings in order to discuss a wide range of topics from books to blogging (and some slightly more personal matters throw in for good measure). After Heidi stopped blogging (apparently for good), five of us took over as hosts while providing new questions. The current team is composed of Berls at Because Reading Is Better Than Real LifeJen at That's What I'm Talking AboutKaren at For What It's WorthLinda at Book Girl of Mur-y-Castell and Roberta at Offbeat YA. This week's question is... This time I'm doing a round-up of the last month's worth of questions, because I hate how I've been M.I.A. when it comes to the meme! 

April 2025 Round-Up
+ Question of the Day:
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE THING ABOUT SPRING?

  • April 1st: What is your current genre of choice? Has it changed recently?
Broadly speaking, I tend to read under the supernatural (and supernatural horror) umbrella - afterlife, urban fantasy, portal fantasy, and ever magical realism in a way, can be considered supernatural subgenres. I also like sci-fi, but mostly limited to time travel and multiverse. I've been reading these types of books for years now, and I'm sure I'll keep reading them as long as I live.

Offbeat Offline: March 2025 (Plus Announcing Yet Another Hiatus)


Welcome to Offbeat Offline, where I bring you up-to-date with what went on in my life during the month just gone, give you a sneak peek of my next shenanigans, and share my favourite posts of late!

What happened last month to yours truly? Nothing bad, but nothing good either, at least on the real-life front (though I have exciting news on the bookish one - see below). March was a humdrum month (thank you Sam for putting a new-to-me word on my radar...I told you I'd use it! 😁), and while I'm grateful for a respite from new drama, I wish something took a turn for the better with the extant problems for once...😭
