Hello everyone!
I'm Yomna, your fellow book lover! I mainly run this blog along with my friend Rosanna who you may see some posts from (all posts tagged "Srishti" are from Rosanna as well). I am a busy university student but this blog is a perfect place for me to scream about all the things that excite me that I can't talk to anyone about in real life. I was in 7th grade when I started this blog and it has come a long way (If you stumble across my 7th-grade posts and feel the need to cringe, I understand!)
My favorite things to do are reading (of course!), gardening, baking and listening to music. Why "reading witches"? Well, I've always felt that witches are such amazing mythical characters and my reading has only reinforced this notion. Also, a witch is a common insult used for women that society can't understand so I just love how it has the connotation of a powerful and mysterious woman. I've never not enjoyed a book with a witch character in it, so it felt fitting for it to be part of the title of the blog. Some of my favorite witchy quotes:
"They're burning all the witches even if you aren't one."
- Taylor Swift, I Did Something Bad
"The familiar male’s gaze snagged on her. “What’s her business here?”
Nesta gave him a secretive smile. “Witchcraft.”
- Sarah J Maas, A Court of Silver Flames
Some of my favorite books: Anything Sarah J Maas, The Selection series (this series so nostalgic for me I can never be free!), Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins, Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo, and Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.
My name's Rosanna, I won't go into the story it's far too long. I am a second-year politics student at university. As Yomna said, this blog has started out a very long time ago. My relationship with it has since evolved as I continue to grow and learn about myself and everything else. For me, this blog is a good place to vent on a platform that feels ironically personal and private to me. I recently started a new series of posts (L2RA) where I explore my love for reading.
As much as this blog is both mine and Yomna's, my hat goes off to her as the project has only continued and become what it is now thanks to her. Its success and just the fact that it has not been deleted from the internet is because of her. The name change of the blog seems to be very much in theme with me, and it's only befitting. My favorite movie ever, including the amazing soundtrack by Joe Hisaishi, is "Kiki's Delivery Service". Very much witchy ;).
If you find any issues with the formatting or readability of the blog (including typos), please let me know. Some of our posts are very old and although I try to keep them all readable, some things slip past me.
Thanks for visiting the blog, hope you enjoy your time here.
