25 bookish + personal facts about me // birthday post

If you are reading this the day it is published then you all should know that it is my birthday! I decided I wanted to do an extra post this week because it is my birthday. I didn't know exactly what I wanted to do, so I did seek out some help on Twitter and ran a poll for you all to vote for what you wanted to see!

(see picture below)

I'm actually pretty thankful the book haul didn't get chosen because I haven't actually received any books or bought myself any books by the time this post goes up (update I have received 3, but that's not enough for a haul right?).

I think I want to split up the bookish and personal facts, so that there aren't 50 facts randomly listed in this post.
