Faith

Trainee teacher | INFJ | Slytherin | Bi

Hey, I’m Faith, and it’s just me here at GeekyZooGirl. I’m currently training to be a teacher, but in my free time I can usually be found reading, blogging, watching TV or at the cinema (all with a stash of snacks!). I’m a huge bookworm, so most of my posts are book-related, but I’m also a disney nerd, a Linkin Park fan and food-obsessed, so things can get a little varied!

QOTD: what’s your favourite fairytale or fairytale retelling?

When I saw today’s prompt was whimsical, the first thing that came to mind was fairytales, but the more I started thinking the more I realised there were all kinds of things I associated with the word. Luna I think is definitely whimsical - her kooky, curious nature means she sometimes goes off on a tangent as she pleases, but that’s why we love her! Strange the Dreamer and Muse of Nightmares, although not fairytales, definitely have some of that same ethereal, legendary feel I associate with them; Taylor’s writing is always so evocative! The Night Circus and The Raven Cycle again make me think of whimsy when I think about the gorgeous writing styles and how they’re lovely to take your time over and really savour the descriptions in! And finally, I think musicals have some of that same whimsical association, so I added this ‘think of me’ rose to the picture. I love musicals but I don’t get to go to as many as I’d like, and obviously I’m not going to any right now!
