A Storm of Swords: Flashback

“Old stories are like old friends, she used to say. You have to visit them from time to time.”

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.

Spoiler Time Sunday: Romance in Idhun

Today, I’ll answer one big question from The Idhun Chronicles, is there romance there? Or is it just fantasy? It’s spoiler time!

Hello, dearies! 📖➡️

Here we are once more on a Sunday and with some spoilers.

I’ll dive right into it because there’s no time like the present, I started this section with some spoilers from the Wizarding World, you can check it out on that link you just pass it. 👀

So, if you’re an avid reader of my blog, you might know that I’m a big fan of The Idhun Chronicles (Memorias de Idhún), a Spanish trilogy by author Laura Gallego. But I have seen a question going around that it’s big spoiler, well, I have seen a couple but today I’ll answer this one: Is there romance in The Idhun Chronicles?

This is a funny one for me, because what do you mean, people on the internet? Anyway, the short answer is this: Yes, there is romance in The Idhún Chronicles.

Now, for the long answer, which contains many spoilers and if you haven’t read the books but intent on reading, then this post is not for you. I mean it, you can stop reading here and thank you for stopping by.

2024: Year of the Dragon – Let’s read!

It’s a New Year! ✨️

Welcome, dearies! 🐲

This is the official first post of the year 2024. Since this the Year of The Dragon, and one of my favourite creatures (animals?) then I have decided to create a reading list of Books that have dragons or shifters 😏 in them.

And as a challenge to myself (you can join in as well) I will do my best to read all of these books this 2024.

Dune: Book Review… sort of

Author: Frank Herbert

Genre: Science Fiction, Fantasy, Drama, Fiction, Classics, Space Opera

Hello, dearies! 🐫

Today is one that I finished last month (I think). Dune, this was a long read, such a very long read, but I got through it! 👏🥳Good for me!

So, Dune, have you watched the new Dune movie with handsome Timothy Chamlet? I have, of course, about 3 times by now, might watch it again before the second part releases next year. But that’s not why we are here, and no, I haven’t watched the other Dune movie. 1984?

Friday Flashback: Fruits Basket (2001)

Prepare for some serious ranting.

Fruits Basket (Anime 2001)

Where can I watch it? On Crunchyroll.

Hello, dearies! 🐾

I recently, barely, finished watching Fruits Basket’s original anime (or I would say the crazy 2001 version).

This anime makes no sense.

I’ll jump right into this one. Expect some rambling ahead, and some spoilers if you don’t know about Fruits Basket.

Fruits Basket – Manga Review… sort of

The anime sent me on this path… and it was worth it. 😍

Title: Fruits Basket

(フルーツバスケット, Furūtsu Basuketto) also abbreviated as Furuba or Fruba (フルバ)

Author: Natsuki Takaya

Genres: Fantasy, romantic comedy, slice of life

Original date: July 1998 – November 2006

In 2015, it began the Fruits Basket: Collector’s Edition (愛蔵版フルーツバスケット) where 2 volumes were compiled into one. Same story. But there are now 12 volumes.

Hello, dearies! 🎆🎐

Welcome to a new rambling about a Manga. I finished Fruits Basket this month, and found it quite interesting.

What shocked me the most about reading and finishing the Manga was that I knew where it was going because I’d watched the anime (2019 version), but I was still into it, it didn’t feel like a repeat, but at the same, it was a sort of comfort read, I don’t know if you know what I mean, but it was nice. And I liked it of course.

Have you watched Jujutsu Kaisen?

Kon’nichiwa, dearies!🗼

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…
