    A Storm of Swords: Flashback

    Author: George RR Martin

    Genres: Fiction, Fantasy,

    Series: A Song of Ice and Fire Book #3

    Friday Flashback (Flashback Friday)

    I had some confusion going with this one and A Clash of Kings. Don’t know why, don’t how that happened. Perhaps because I read all three books in a row. A Game of Thrones, A Clash of Kings, and this one A Storm of Swords.

    A Game of Thrones: Flashback

    Author: George R.R. Martin

    Genre: Fantasy, Fiction, Epic Fantasy, Adult, High Fantasy, Science Fiction Fantasy, and more.

    Series: A Song of Ice and Fire #1

    Hello, dearies! 👑

    I realized that I don’t have a proper post for A Song of Ice and Fire Book 1, aka, A Game of Thrones.

    Of course, I have my very special A Song of Ice and Fire page and a book review for A Dance with Dragons. But the other books I read all in one go and so fast, and so, not putting down this book type of way that well, it all kind of blended together, and then I watched Game of Thrones, so that didn’t help matters. It all just cooled down.

    Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland: TBT

    Author: Lewis Carroll

    Genre: Nonsense Literature, Fantasy, Adventure

    When did I read it? Ages ago.

    Hello, dearies! 🫖

    When I was little, I loved watching the Disney movie of Alice in Wonderland. Just a fun fact for you.

    I didn’t read the book until my teenage days and found it as nuts as you can imagine.

    It’s not bad. It’s just a lot of things happening.

  • Friday Flashback: The Dragon Prince Season 3

    Friday Flashback: The Dragon Prince Season 3

    Where? Netflix

    What is it about? Not all about dragons, no.

    Genres? Fantasy, Magic, Elves, Dragons, Humans.

    Hello, dearies! 🐲

    This one is not really a throwback for me because I “recently” re-watched the whole show up until season 4, which I think is awesome, and that The Dragon Prince just keeps getting better and better, but I’ll stay focused and restrict this one to Season 3 because I realised I didn’t have an entry for it.

    I don’t have one for season 1 either, but that can be another week.

    The Dragon Prince season 3, what happened on this one? Should I go with some spoilers? I don’t think I can talk about it much without some, so if you haven’t watched it yet, then don’t read, and if you are here for all the details on this season, I’ll only give a few, so enjoy those.

    Series: Harry Potter

    Book #6: The Half-Blood Prince

    Author: JK Rowling

    Genre: YA, fantasy, magic, drama

    I’ve been waiting to talk about this one.

    Hello, dearies! ⚡

    The Half-Blood Prince was not going to be this week’s Throwback Thursday, but here we are, TBT with this Potter book.

    I love the whole Harry Potter saga, I think that’s clear after me taking the time to talk about each book, but The Half-Blood Prince made me re-read it a few times when it first came out, and it soon became a favourite book.

    After reading it, I had to wait for The Deathly Hallows, so I had to keep going back to The Half-Blood Prince for more.

    Let us begin. 🔮

    I’ll jump right in, and perhaps go back and forward, so please be patient with my upcoming rambling.

    Alright, so I sometimes do Anime related ones here as you might know. And Bubble deserved an entry.

    Hello, dearies! Happy Easter Week! 🐇

    I wanted to do an entry on Moon Lovers since I finished it a while back because I fell hard for the story and the characters, and even though the finale was not my favourite, it was still a darn good drama.

    Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo’s name came to me while I was watching an episode of Knowing Bros (Ask Us Anything/Brother School), and IU and Lee Joon Gi were there as guests. It’s a great episode you should watch it.

    The Bane Chronicles: Vampires, Scones, and Edmund Herondale

    The Banes Chronicles Book 3

    Authors: Cassandra Clare & Sarah Rees Brennan

    Genre: YA, fantasy, Short Story, Paranormal

    Here we are once again, dearies! I trust all is going well on your end, and you’re enjoying these tidbits on The Bane Chronicles, or perhaps my other reviews, they’re all on the main page, as you might know.

    Now, we’re on the 3rd story in The Bane Chronicles, the one where we see vampires and Herondales, and scones too. I will always enjoy a good Herondale story, but this one was set in 1857 when even Charlotte Fairchild was a young girl, and that just makes you think how old Magnus really is, but no matter, we already knew that.

    Hello, dearies!

    I was going through my list of books I have read and found I haven’t told you about this one here in the blog. The Empress of the Ethereal is a Spanish book by my fav Spanish author, in fact, I think is the only Spanish author that I like, I love her books, specially The Idhún Chronicles, as you might know since I have multiple entries about it.
