    The Magician’s Nephew [Book Review]

    Author: C.S. Lewis

    Book Saga: The Chronicles of Narnia (Chronological Order) #1

    Genres: Fantasy. Classics. Children. Young Adult (Maybe). A bit Christian. Fiction.

    Book Description: The secret passage to the house next door leads to a fascinating adventure. Narnia… where the woods are thick and cool, where Talking Beasts are called to life… a new world where the adventure begins.

    My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Hello, dearies! Welcome to my first ever C.S. Lewis book review. 😮

    That’s right I had never read The Chronicles of Narnia or any book by this author. But I decided this year that it was time, it had gone long enough, and frankly, I opened the book and started reading without giving it too much thought.

    And that was eye-opening for me. But first let me tell my first impressions of reading The Magician’s Nephew, which was not what I was expecting in many ways.

    Hello, dearies! 🏝️

    Welcome to the blog and a new review in the world of Eternal Mates, this time for Seduced by a Demon King, which is book 17 in the saga.

    The saga that I didn’t I would keep on reading for so long, yet, here I am because it seems I am a fan.

    Being Seduced by This Demon King surprised me 😄. Why? Because I didn’t think I would like it better than others, but I did.

    First things first, though, the general book details.

    Avenged by an Angel [Eternal Mates #16] Book Review

    So much hope… I had so many hopes for it. 😶‍🌫️

    Title: Avenged by an Angel

    Book Series: Eternal Mates

    Author: Felicity Heaton

    Genres: Angels (duh). Paranormal. Fantasy. Romance. Fates ones. Demons. Dragons.

    Rating: 4 out of 5.

    Page count: 306 or so pages

    Hello, dearies! 🪽

    At this point, you might have noticed that I like these books 😆 I cannot seem to stop myself from buying them. Since I picked up the Eternal Mates series again, I have not been able to stop until I get to the bottom of it all. Although, the last one I read seemed to take a small turn, a wee one from what I had read on this one and book #17. Alright I’m getting ahead of myself because I read 3 of these in a row.

    I shall focus on Avenged by an Angel, which I had wanted to read since book 7? The one on Taken by a Dragon, I think; like honestly, I knew this one was coming at some point and when I began reading, it all seemed to point in the right direction, and then? To be honest, I stopped reading for a bit, it was kind of predictable, but I still read it and liked it, but was not as: whoa! As I had expected.

    So, I don’t have a photo of my hand on each book as last time, but that is okay, too. 😆 Regardless, the basics remain, and each finger is for a book.

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

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

    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.
