Thank you to Stephanie for sending me a free copy of the book in exchange for an honest review. These last few years have been hard. Some of us cope by writing, others by reading, and there are those who do both. We all have our way to get the day. Stephanie Burgis has written Read More
ARC Review: Touchstones by Stephanie Burgis
Ready Player Read(athon)
I joined the SFF Oasis a while ago after a friend, Jaedia, dragged me in. It’s a great Discord community with readers and authors who share a love for the SFF genre. It’s a fun mix of people who are all supportive to each other’s endeavours and chosen paths. Benny, the server owner, and the Read More
Review: K-pop Confidential by Stephan Lee
K-pop is booming. The pop bands from Korea are finally taking over the world, so it was to be expected it would find its way into other pop culture as well. K-pop Confidential is one of the first wave of K-pop books and I really wanted to read this (and all of the others) as Read More
Best Reads of 2022 (so far)
It’s that time of the year again: a mid-year update on my reading! I thought I wouldn’t read a lot this first half of the year because of health reasons. There was one month where I didn’t read a lot but I made up for that in the last two months. Broadening my reading experience Read More
Review: Voice of War by Zack Argyle
This book is a hard one for me to review for multiple reasons. I read this as part of the BBNYA competition so I felt obligated to finish it. I might have stopped reading after the first chapter if I didn’t. Before I read it, I saw the book on a lot of ‘best fantasy’ Read More
Birthday Haul 2022
It was my birthday last Wednesday and I had plans for the first time in years. One of my best friends had a work thing in Amsterdam and she came a day early to celebrate with me. I still had the gift voucher for the American Book Center that I won in a writing competition Read More
Review: Rosemary and Rue by Seanan Maguire
I read Rosemary and Rue as a buddy-read with Aurelie at the beginning of the year. I didn’t know much about the book or the series except that Aurelie loved it and wanted to do a re-read of the whole series. October Daye is unlucky in just about every day. She hardly has any powers, Read More

Today we have an exciting cover reveal! Iron Hearts and Dragon Magic is the final book of the Of Fire & Fae duology. The cover of the first book, Frozen Heart and Death Magic, is absolutely gorgeous and this one matches very well. The artist has done an amazing job with the expressions on the Read More
Review: From Little Tokyo With Love by Sarah Kuhn
I picked up From Little Tokyo, With Love on a whim. I wanted something light and fun and contemporary romance never lets me down. Rika and Hank are the couple, a waitress and an actor. You immediately get Cinderella vibes with two cousins, and not one, but two aunties. Let’s also throw in some princess Read More
Trying Audiobooks Again
My experiences with audiobooks haven’t been great, but when I decided to get eye surgery, I knew I wanted to give it another try. The doctor said I’d probably be able to see right away, although a bit blurry, I always expect the worst, including a longer recovery time because my body is weird. How Read More
