    TBT: Catching Fire

    Hello, dearies! 🔥

    Are you excited about Sunrise on the Reaping? The movie is growing closer, yet, not fast enough.

    With it. We keep going back to the 50th Hunger Games and of course, Haymitch, and naturally to Catching Fire (The 75th Hunger Games), in the little bit of the book when Katniss and Peeta watched the recording of Haymitch’s games as they were going on their way to The Capitol.

    Hello, dearies! Welcome to another Narnia review!

    As you might know I am reading the Narnia books, Prince Caspian, book 4 in the Series (Chronological order) was the one I had been expecting to read the most, probably because of the movie, probably because it seemed like that interesting shift into a different Narnia.

    Oh, spoilers alert btw, so if you don’t know about the story or haven’t watched the movies, be warned there will be spoilers.

    So, I wanted to read Prince Caspian since I started with The Magician’s Nephew, but by the time I finished reading this book, I literally said: come on!

    Let me tell you what happened.

    Mags, Finnick, or Johanna? Who deserves the next Hunger Games book?

    Hello, dearies!

    Welcome to a rant on The Hunger Games and the upcoming (not official) next books. I am doing this because I saw a post on IG about the ‘rumours’ of Finnick Odair’s prequel book, this is not an official announcement, not one that I have seen at least.

    So, I am a seeker, and I immediately went and looked for it to see if Suzanne Collins had made an official announcement about the next book, there is none.

    The current one: Sunrise on the Reaping, it is barely getting the movie out this year, if and when (they probably will) announce a new prequel, it might not be for a couple of months, now, if you know something I don’t like an interview of this year or an official news report, let me know, I am all ears and I’ll be happy about it. But no, there is no Finnick book (yet). Talked about it? The production or whoever of The Hunger Games mentioned it, yes, but that’s it.

    Now, who would be deserving of this honour? Who would we want to see on the next book prequel? Probably Finnick so we can cry and be completely even more traumatised than we were after Haymitch’s Quarter Quell book, wow, that was rough. Who then? I did the math, and my hopes are as follow.

    The Magician’s Nephew [Book Review]

    Book Title: The Magician’s Nephew

    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.

    Shadowhunter Chronicles News: Late to the party?

    I’m totally fangirling right now, and I don’t care if I’m late to the party, or don’t know when this was first announced, it is still not out, and I have a lot of reading to re-do and to catch-on.

    I saw a new novel in the Shadowhunter world is coming in 2026, and is the one that I was hoping for… 🎊 even if it is the last trilogy of the Shadowhunter books, and I’m sad about that, I still cannot wait!

    Update 2026 is at the end.

    Five Fingers Book Challenge pt. 2

    Hello, dearies! Welcome to a new book challenge! 😊

    For this second round I went with books that I don’t have on paperback but I wish I did. 📚

    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.

    Is Horimiya an acquired taste or an innate one?

    Hello, everyone! 💬

    I was going to do this and discuss whether Horimiya was an acquired taste or not, but looking further into that expression and what actually means, it might have been an innate taste for me.

    So, an acquired taste is when you get accustomed to something after going over and over to it, right? And that might be the case for some.

    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.
