"Once you learn to read, you will be forever free.” – Frederick Douglas

Where books come to life, dive into a world where I share my thoughts on the books that have captured my heart, left me wanting more, or, in some cases, made me put them down unfinished. 

About

Hey! I'm Haley. I love fantasy and romance novels, but honestly, I'm into all sorts of books. Reading has always been my thing, but I struggled to track all the stories in one place. Then, I started sharing my book summaries on Instagram, and guess what? It worked. My friends and family loved it, and that's how my little book corner, Tales and Takes, came to life.

This place is for anyone who loves reading as much as I do. Whether chilling with coffee or wine, you're welcome to join me. We'll talk about all the books, the good, the bad, and the overhyped ones. Let's share our favorite stories and thoughts and maybe find our next great read. Welcome to Tales and Takes, where every book opens up a new world.
