What about Love Again?

I recently hit play on Love Again on HBO, and this is what happened…

Hello, dearies! 🎥

I recently watched Love Again with Sam Heugham 💕 oh, and Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Celine Dion.

I wasn’t going to mention it here, but sometimes you have to, because to be honest it wasn’t like the greatest love story ever, and half the time the story of her got a little on my nerves, though not as much as clearly seeing where the story was going and how it’ll end, maybe it was my Rom-Com filled brain 🤣 but truly, I knew even before they did that she would end up texting him. 📱

Human? Doubtful

Supernatural being? Yes

Spoilers in this post? Probably, if you haven’t read any of the Hush Hush books.

Hello, dearies! 💙

Welcome to a new rambling about a book character.

If the me of ten years ago would have written this, it’d be a simple: Love him.

Welcome, September! Days later but it is here!

How is September going to be?

Happy September, dearies! 🍂

Fall is almost here!

Yes, it’s my favourite season! How did you guys know? 🤣

Anyway, September is here, and perhaps it’ll be a great one for reading, even when I am still reading Dune because, my goodness what a long book. But I’m halfway through it so if that’s done soon, I’ll be able to move on to some romances that are waiting for me. Or a few fantasy books that I have on my TBR since forever, honestly, the list is long, and I cannot decide on one right now.

Daily Prompt: I was looking for: what in the world was peremptory?

Interesting question. Funny answer.

What was the last thing you searched for online? Why were you looking for it?

Hey, dearies! 📚

Quick answer on this one. I am reading Dune and this word: peremptory. It came up and at first I kept reading for a few seconds then came back to it like, what is that? Did I understand the sentence?

So, yes, I had to look for it online. And it means:

adjective: peremptory
insisting on immediate attention or obedience, especially in a brusquely imperious way.

Similar: brusque, imperious, high-handed, brisk

Or in LAW
not open to appeal or challenge; final.

Similar: incontrovertible, irreversible.

Hope you learned a new word as I did. 😄📖

PoV: Watching Jujutsu Kaisen for the first time

Have you watched Jujutsu Kaisen?

Kon’nichiwa, dearies!🗼

I go Japanese after a good anime, I know. 😉😶‍🌫️

So, have you heard of or watched Jujutsu Kaisen?

Of course, are you the only one living in the past?

If you thought that, then, no need to be so harsh. I started watching this anime recently after reading the description, and though I haven’t finished it, this is how it’s going so far…

10 Years

“Don’t settle for what life gives you; make life better and build something.”

Wait what? It’s been 10 years since I decided to start blogging and rambling about books online?

It seems that’s the case.

10 Years ago, I chose a name and decided to put my thoughts out there in the world, and you know what happened? Nothing, I continued to do it just because it’s fun, and I love sharing books.

Stranger Things Season 4 – Part 2: Wow Wow

How could all of it go sideways so terribly?

By the time I finished watching this one, I was too shocked to even write about it, so I let it sit in my mind…

Crass mistake, now I can hardly remember what was that happened except for the end of season 4 of Stranger Things. 🤣🫠

Hello, dearies!

Welcome to a Flashback Friday or Friday Flashback, whichever you prefer. Here we are with Stranger Things once more.

Fathers in Books

Happy Father’s Day!

Hello, dearies! 👨‍🍼

I didn’t do a Mom’s in Books because I was a bit off that month. But here is a Father’s Day special because why not…

What’s the first book you recall reading and seeing a super dad in it?

I can’t remember, but James Potter comes to mind, as well as father figures like Sirius Black, and a father that couldn’t be one, Remus Lupin, man that took a turn into sad.

Friday Flashback: Charmed

‘Just because I protect the innocent doesn’t mean I have to be innocent all of the time.’ Phoebe Halliwell

I should have known this would be coming. But I didn’t.

Hello, dearies! This is Sela! 😎

I haven’t started a post like that in… hold on, I don’t think I ever started one of my posts like that, but here we are. That is in case you didn’t know my name already.

Anyway, welcome to a new Friday Flashback, featuring one of my favourite TV shows of all time: Charmed.

The story of three sister witches, and then three half-sisters witches who fight evil because that’s apparently their destiny, but all they want is a normal life since that’s something that most witches and other supernatural have in common, while we the mortals, want nothing but the unconventional and magical life. 🪄
