about

Hi, everyone! I’m Anexis and my pronouns are they/them. Nice to meet you! I’m a blind college student majoring in english with a concentration in creative writing. I’m a content creator who began on YouTube with the channel Videl Blind-The Blind Reader. I now currently run the channel Anexis Matos and no longer post on my old one. I started blogging to share my writing. I’ve always enjoyed stories. I started writing when I was between the ages of 10 and 12. My stories started out as Dragon Ball fanfiction which will never see the light of day because I deleted them. Now, I write original stories that I hope to share at some point. My aim with this blog is simply to share my thoughts on whatever interests me. From reviews to blindness, you’ll see it here.

  • The Rightful Bride Chapter 2

    Duke Oliver of Libsia is married! Yes, you read that right. The duke has taken a duchess. We have little information about this, unfortunately. The duke has refused to comment on their union.

  • Circe by Madeline Miller: Giving Voice to the Unheard

    I believe I read this book during the pandemic for the first time. I remember it being very popular then, but I didn’t like it. I read the entire book, but it wasn’t a great experience. I reread Circe for class this time. I had an entirely different experience. My rating even changed. Synopsis This…

  • I’m Taking a Short Hiatus

    Hey, everyone! I’ll be taking a very short hiatus. I need some time to recharge and prepare posts for release. I’ll be back in July with weekly content. In the meantime, I’ll be posting content on YouTube, so, if you’d like to see more of me, check out my channel below.

  • The Rightful Bride Chapter 1

    Single ladies, get excited! We have very good news from the palace. For years, we’ve wondered if the king would marry. Of course, marriage is not necessary to have a queen, but everyone enjoys a wedding. Everyone especially enjoys a royal wedding. Our last wedding was years ago when our queen, now princess, was married.…

  • Nine Perfect Strangers by Lianne Moriarty: I Did Not See That Coming

    I wasn’t looking for this book. I searched the NLS Bard web site’s most popular books section and I saw the title. I don’t remember if I read the synopsis or not. I only remember putting it on my wishlist. Synopsis Nine people attend a health resort. Everything seems perfect… until it’s not. Book Information…

  • Arch-Conspirator by Veronica Roth: It Needed More

  • Triptych: Psycho Mom and Nostalgia to the Max

    I was talking on the phone with a friend and we decided it might be fun to browse Netflix for soap operas. I found this series and the description grabbed my interest immediately. It also helps that an actress I really like plays the leading role. Synopsis In a hostage situation, Rebeca meets a woman…

  • The American Roommate Experiment by Elena Armas: A Lot of Improvement

    I have some history with Elena Armas. I didn’t enjoy their debut novel, The Spanish Love Deception. It was a terrible book and, while I understand why it’s popular, I’ve read better romance. However, their writing is good and so is the concept for The Spanish Love Deception, so I wanted to give them another…

  • Audio Description of Love Is Blind

    We’re back with the Lacheys. I know. Too short a break. I’m sorry. It just happens to be the next thing I finished. I’ve been watching Love Is Blind since the beginning. It was my introduction to reality TV. For that alone, it holds a special place for me. It got me into easily digestible…
