    Hello, dearies! 🧭

    Prepare for some fangirling of epic proportions.

    And maybe a bit of rambling too.

    The Lost Book of The White takes us forward in time or further (way further) than The Red Scrolls of Magic, which I recommend you first read City of Bones before diving into that one, although it is not necessary.

    So, I loved book 2 of The Eldest Curses, does that come across? Sometimes I don’t know if it really does. But I did, and it took me a while to write this one because… life, so my memories are a bit far away.

  • HP and the Half-Blood Prince

    HP and the Half-Blood Prince

    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.

    Finally, but how I wished it would continue.

    Hello, dearies! 😍

    Because when in doubt or in a reading slump turn to the shadow world, and they will make your life better. Lighter. Heart throbbing. Beautifully well-written, better.

  • Friday Flashback: Hocus Pocus

    Friday Flashback: Hocus Pocus

    Happy Friday, dearies! 🎥

    Sorry, I missed one of these last week, but it was hectic.

    Why don’t you schedule? The whole week was hectic, so I beseech you, bear with me on this one.

    Alright, so Hocus Pocus was a great movie, the original I mean. It’s one of my favourite movies to watch on Halloween and any other holiday, I can catch it on TV in the middle of it and keep on watching.

  • The Bane Chronicles: Saving Raphael Santiago

    The Bane Chronicles: Saving Raphael Santiago

    Story: Saving Raphael Santiago

    Authors: Cassandra Clare & Sarah Rees Brennan

    Book: The Bane Chronicles – Book #6

    Genres: Vampires, Fantasy, YA, Short Story

    Hello, dearies! 🦇

    I’m trying a new thing for Thursdays or Fridays, a sort of Throwback post or Flashback, and I thought this one would be perfect for it as The Bane Chronicles is a throwback indeed or a flashback if you must, at least for me.

    As Today is Thursday, this is the first Throwback Thursday book review, thoughts.

    Saving Raphael Santiago it’s not all that engraved in my mind, don’t ask me why because I cannot recall, but it was of the stories in The Bane Chronicles, so of course, I had to read it.

  • HP and the Order of the Phoenix

    HP and the Order of the Phoenix

    Series: Harry Potter

    Book #5: The Order of the Phoenix

    Author: JK Rowling

    Genre: YA, fantasy, magic, drama

    And we have arrived at our 5th Year at Hogwarts School of Magic and Wizardry. 🦉

    Hello, dearies! I hope your day, night, midnight or early morning is going well and you are staying healthy and safe.

    For this one, I cannot be certain how it will go since it was one of my favourites, the book and the movie, even though there’re tons of differences, I love to rewatch The Order of The Phoenix.

    Let us begin at once. No time like the present. 📽️📘

    Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (The Book)

    Book: Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

    Author: JK Rowling under Newt Scamander

    Genre: Fantasy

    Hello, dearies! 📚

    Guess what? The new Fantastic Beasts film is coming up next month, yes, that is April of 2022. Are you excited? I am. 🤩

    Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore, or simply The Secrets of Dumbledore. Directed by David Yates and screenplay by J. K. Rowling; Steve Kloves, you know that what’s happening in the movie is for real because JK has a hand on it, like she did in the past Fantastic Beasts movies.

  • The Bane Chronicles: Vampires, Scones, and Edmund Herondale

    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.

  • The Bane Chronicles: The Runaway Queen

    The Bane Chronicles: The Runaway Queen

    The Bane Chronicles Book 2

    Authors: Cassandra Clare & Maureen Johnson

    Genres: Fantasy. YA.

    It’s not easy writing about what you have read years ago, but I do my best here. The Runaway Queen is the second story in The Bane Chronicles, the compilation about Magnus Bane life before and some after he met Alec, and from the time we read about Magnus in The Mortal Instruments, we wanted to know this kind of story since he is quite old and had many things to tells us throughout the books.

  • About The Tales of Beedle the Bard

    About The Tales of Beedle the Bard

    Hello, dearies! How’s December so far? 

    Mine is cold. ⛄

    I’ll jump right in because this one is going to be short, have you ever read The Tales of Beedle the Bard? 

    They’re not a necessity within the wizarding world, and you can read the whole Harry Potter saga without them, but it’s nice to know those side stories that Ron told us about in book 7, spoiler? If you read and watched the movies, you know when they are mentioned. 

    It was nice reading these, they are short stories, and they make you go a little deeper into the magical world that we wish we were part of, though, of course, the main story that you want to read there is the Tale of the Three Brothers since on The Deathly Hallows you will want to know what three things you need to master death.
