ThePurpleBookwyrm - Invidious

ThePurpleBookwyrm

Hello and welcome to my BookTube channel!

I'm Muriel, an AuDHD, witchy and nerdy, Anglo-European bookwyrm, with a strong preference for speculative fiction (science-fiction, fantasy and weird fiction especially), though I read other genres as well from time to time, and non-fiction too, about a variety of special interests, such as the natural sciences, feminism, human sexuality, art/history, religion/occultism and mythology (big mythology nerd here!). I've also been known to review the odd piece of cinema or video game, on occasion (if it falls under the purview of SFF).

I also write reviews on GoodReads and The StoryGraph, am active on Instagram, and stream games on Twitch: linktr.ee/thepurplebookwyrm.
