At Hogwarts, I’d dive into magical classes, explore the castle’s hidden secrets, and maybe even join a Quidditch game — all while enjoying butterbeer in Hogsmeade.

But in Fourth Wing, I’d jump into the intense world of dragon riders, training hard to bond with my own dragon and soar through epic skies. I’d want to experience the adrenaline, the camaraderie, and the fierce battles alongside the riders.

So basically, I’d be toggling between spellcasting and dragon-riding adventures — how cool would that be?

What about you? Which fictional world would you visit and what would you do there?(less)

A Book That Broke My Heart (In the Best Way)

I just finished The Correspondent by Virginia Evans, and I can honestly say no book has ever touched me quite like this one.

At first, it feels quiet—almost understated—but don’t let that fool you. This story slowly wraps itself around your heart in a way that feels so natural you don’t even realize how invested you’ve become… until it’s too late. And then suddenly, you’re feeling everything.
