About

Welcome to I Heart Romance & Other Things, where I review, share lists, gush about reading and talk about anything bookish – and other things that interest me.

My name is Ezrah and I’m a 30-something bookworm, living in Southern California, but I was born and raised in Dumaguete City, Philippines.

I am the fangirly bookworm who shoves books down your throat. When you ask for book recs from me, be prepared to be bombarded with a lot of recommendations from multiple genres.

I have lost some of my introverted tendencies since leaving my nest but I am still a homebody. I talk too much, which always gets me into big trouble. I am a little bit artsy and I love to DIY, blogging, bookstagramming, watch movies, and read, of course.

I started blogging way back in the late 1990s when there were no blogging tools yet. I’ve had waaay more blogs than I care to admit! Those blogs have gone the way of the dinosaur and I am extremely happy about that! I stopped blogging for a bit until I discovered my love for book blogging and I Heart Romance was born! This blog’s name has morphed a bit, and the current iteration is I Heart Romance & Other Things.
