Reading with a
Side of Life
Mission Statement:
To entertain, inform, and occastionally drop an f-bomb here or there while reviewing books and life’s random BS with sass, spice, and zero gatekeeping.
1. Audience Stats
- Mostly millennial and G Z readers who also enjoy morally gray characters and asking themselves ” how would I react if that happened to me?”
- Loves to chat with my homies on social media-catch me outside on TikTok, Instagram, and Pinterest!
- We all love book hauls, spicy reivews, mental health awareness, and relatable rants because life is like Tina’s panic moan from Bob’s Burgers sometimes.
2. Content Pillars
- Book Reviews (fantasy, romance, spicy, and WTF plot twist).
- Honest Product Reviews (from hair serums to samples from Ipsy)
- Life Commentary because I think people care and feel the same as me.
- YouTube Shorts + TikToks for awesome visual vibes and short attention spans like myself.
3. Let’s Work Together!
- I do have sponsored Post & Brand Collabs- Let’s promote your sh*t together!
- Affiliate Partnerships to help pay for my hobbie of reviews and rants.
- Guest Features or Appearances! I would love to interview you and get your story out there!

What this Blog is About
Reading with a Side of Life is my blog where book reviews meets real life topics with a wee-bit of sarcasm but a whole lot of honesty. I am not a professional writer or editor-so if your expecting perfection or professionalism-this may not be the place for you.
But if you stick around to read a review or watch a video, expect spicy fantasy reads, honest product reviews being used in real time, commentary on every day chaos that we all go through, and the occational hermit crab update
(Side note-did you know a hermit crab can molt for over six months!!! Literaly eats their own poop and shell for months! Its WILD).
It’s basically the online version of texting your best friend about everything you just read, bought, or accidenly said outloud-but usually your face says it all.
*Your reviews are a breath of fresh air! They helped me find my new favorite book. I love your honest insights and relatable style. Keep it up!
