Spoiler Time Sunday: Sunrise on the Reaping

‘It’s like they’ve tried to bring the whole outdoors indoors. Why? Is opening a door and walking through it too much trouble? Fools and their money are soon parted, Ma would say.’

Hello, tributes! 🥲

Or do you prefer, hello, dearies!

Yes, that sounds better. 😆

It is a month since the release of Sunrise on the Reaping (The Hunger Games Book 0.5), and you know? It is time for some spoilers because I have seen some questions online that truly call for me to answer them, because come on!

On the one side, do you really want to know that? And on the other hand? I hope that these questions are being asked by someone who didn’t read the book because it is pretty straightforward.

Or at least, if you like The Hunger Games, if you know about Haymitch, and if you paid attention you can have your own interpretation of the book, as I did.

So, it is Sunday and it is time for some spoilers.

(Also I’m not going to give away all the main bits of the book), but some major facts.

Season 2 of EachPage Flow [The Podcast] is officially Wrapped Up

Season 2 of EachPage Flow has 8 episodes and it is available on YouTube and Spotify. 😊🩷

Hello, dearies! 🎧

I have finished season 2 of the podcast, do I have more anime and manga to talk about? For sure.

But?

I decided a while back that this season’s finale would be Fruits Basket and there would be 8 episodes, so that’s how it is. 😊

Just one Book?

Picking one book to re-read?

What book could you read over and over again?

How about 9 Books to re-read? Because I have that list all set up and ready if you want book recommendations, you can check out that post on the blog.

But long story short, it is a variety of fantasy, romance, and young adult.

So, any Shadowhunter Novel and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince are top in the re-reading list. Don’t be so shocked, if you spent some time here on the blog, you’ll see those worlds have a special place in it.

Reading is the job

What job would you do for free?

I do already… so yes, I read for free.

But if got books for free or got advanced copies that would be even better, I don’t in case you were wondering. I absolutely enjoy reading and talking about books, so that is what I do every week.

That said, I do have my YouTube Channel with the podcast (also on Spotify), I do have Booktok where I have created book filters, and my Bookstagram is filled with more bookish love than I can handle sometimes.

Today’s Recommendations:

Is Horimiya an acquired taste or an innate one?

It was an instant enjoyment of Horimiya, but is it an acquired or innate taste? For others… what is it like?

Hello, everyone! 💬

I was going to do this and discuss whether Horimiya was an acquired taste or not, but looking further into that expression and what actually means, it might have been an innate taste for me.

So, an acquired taste is when you get accustomed to something after going over and over to it, right? And that might be the case for some.

Sunrise on the Reaping: Book Review [The Hunger Games 0.5]

The book about everything that happened in The Hunger Games, and how it started here with Haymitch and was 24 years in the making.

Hello, dearies! 📚

It’s been a while since I read a book so fast, and fresh out of the oven. But here we are.

It was easy reading Sunrise on the Reaping, and going back to the Capitol, Panem, District 12, even when it was not shown all that much, and discovering how they wanted everything to fit and explain The Hunger Games and the plots that unraveled there.

That’s pretty much it. The end. 😅 Just kidding, sort of.

Let me show you what this book was like, considering that we wanted to know what happened to Haymitch Abernathy, and we sure did. 🫠

And yes, there will be spoilers all over this post, like I will assume you want to know or you have finished reading the book, too.

What is Bu Bu Jing Xin? The Novel

‘Zhang Xiao, a white collar worker from 21st century China, discovers that her soul has wandered back in time to the Qing Dynasty during the reign of the Kangxi Emperor and inhabited the body of a teenage Manchu girl, Ma’ertai Ruoxi.’

Hello, dearies! 📚

So I have seen some are curious about Bu Bu Jing Xin, which is literally translated as ‘Scarlet Heart‘ is the novel where Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo came from, I mentioned this on my reviews of this awesome K-Drama, but it all goes back to a book.

I don’t know much to say about it, other than what I have discovered online, so here are my findings.

Spoiler Time Sunday: Horimiya’s FAQ

Hori-san to Miyamura-kun, the anime and manga that you soon discover is very cool and want to know more about.

Welcome, dearies! 🧁

A new Sunday, a new Spoiler.

Why Horimiya? Because I was looking for a photo and saw these questions that made me snort and answer in my head, and so here we are… was that convincing? Lol. It’s partly true, the other half of that is that I like talking about stuff that I like a lot and have watched a bunch of times, sue me! 😅

Anyways… I hope you are here because you want some spoilers about Kyouko and Izumi because I am going all in without a filter. 🤭
