im planning to overhaul this entire page eventually - the code is SO bad and i never really even liked the layout and can definitely do better. but no ideas rn :< anyway...
i only recently got back into reading while camping this summer (2023) after not reading at all since i was maybe 12/13. i dont have very in depth reviews and my ratings are all over the place but i would like to get more into reviewing media in the future <3
