    Blog ReCap 2023

    Happy New Year, dearies! βœˆοΈπŸŽ‡πŸ§¨

    First post of the year 2024! πŸ“²πŸ“š

    There were some exciting new developments in 2023. The Podcast: EachPage Flow, was officially launched. 9 Episodes are live now (when this was published). My YouTube channel is now available, too. Lots of travel vlogs from my Seoul first trip.

    I started creating more content for TikTok, I hope you enjoy those as well.

    But, this is about the blog, I know. So, what happened in the blog this year? I was surprised about it, looking back on the old posts, there was a lot.

    Blog ReCap 2023

    January

    Nothing much happened in Jan 2023, I was planning a lot for the year. And I watched the movie Bubble.

    February

    Feb was about some good book challenges, I focused on the small town and UK setting for those book listings. And my thoughts of HP and The Half-Blood Prince came to life.

    March

    This month started with my love for book characters and because I remember how much I like Ginny Weasley. I continued my TBT and Flashback Friday specials. Gilmore Girls and Onyx (Lux Series) were featured.

    April

    I was in South Korea. But I still had some entries, maybe I was inspired by my trip. You can check some of it on my Travel VLog.

    TBT for The Awakening (that is the first book in The Vampire Diaries series). And then I decided to list good books to get started with romance, fantasy, and mystery. I was feeling generous like that.

    May

    I finally finished reading The Keeper: A Stars Above Story, this is the first one (?) in the Stars Above compilation of stories for The Lunar Chronicles. Also in May, I watched Memories of the Alhambra and loved it!

    And I finished reading The Lost Book of the White, that was something else. All Shadowhunter books are something else for me.

    June

    Mid-year and I read Lock Every Door, which was not my favourite to be honest. I did a special post for my Father’s Day. And dedicated time to Charmed, one of my all-time binge-watch comfort shows.

    Oh, there was also the very special 10 Years of Blogging anniversary for me. Thank you again for being here.

    July

    Starting strong with A Game of Thrones Flashback. But also 50 Shades Darker flashback, that one was honest. This month I just talked about old reads, there was also The Secret Adversary and my final HP special with The Deathly Hallows.

    August

    Cannot believe it was in August that I started watching Jujutsu Kaisen seems like yesterday.

    Now, I’m obsessed with it.

    Anyway, I also did some book challenges in August. And a Manga listing because I had to recommend some good Manga.

    September

    I watched Love Again and talked about Patch Cipriano, dedicating a book characters entry to him because, have you read Hush Hush? He’s too much.

    I did talk about Hush Hush on the Podcast.

    October

    I created my first book filter for TikTok. And because Halloween was around the corner, of course I did a Mystery book listing and an Autumn books special too. It was fun.

    But the most important thing, I finished watching Fruits Basket (2019 Anime) for the first time and was completely in love with it. I still am, it’s great, so of course I read the Manga and watched the 2001 anime version, which I thought was insane and irrelevant.

    November

    November was a slow month for posting. But I watched THG: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. And that was an honest review I did for the movie.

    I didn’t finish reading Dune in November, but I did post the review for it.

    Also, I have a new filter on TikTok for Dystopian Books. A little challenge for book lovers there, in case you want to create new content for your booktok.

    December

    Special Christmas-related book listing, and a new Flashback for A Clash of Kings.

    β€œHe who hurries through life hurries to his grave.”

    And that was my 2023 Blog Recap for EachPage, I hope you enjoyed this quick trip down memory lane, I certainly did because I didn’t think I’ll have as many entries and some months as I did. Although, I have been trying to publish more, but work and other social media keep me busy, as well as my writing. That’s another fun fact for September that I forgot, I published a new book: Behind the Tree Line.

    That’s all, dearies! Thank you for sticking to the end and Happy New Year once more. πŸŽ‡

    Top 5 Reads of 2023

    Hello, dearies! πŸ“šπŸ’œ

    I usually don’t go this way and while 2023 was slow in terms of reading lengthy or any size of books, I still have some that I wanted to share with you all.

    Let’s go. πŸ€—

    What did I read this Year? 2023 Edition

    Hello, dearies! πŸ“šπŸ“²

    The year 2023 is coming to an end, and I feel like I didn’t read as much I would have other years, but I did because those Manga are long, and even I read them fast it’s still a lot. Though my TBR pile continues to grow and continues to look at me with a longing gaze because I haven’t gone through half of it yet, but it’s my goal next year to read more.

    Let’s begin with my what I read in 2023 list though, you might find something you’ll love in it.

    Read

    Jujutsu Kaisen

    (started reading, haven’t finished the ones available)

    I’m still reading this one, but I started after the Shibuya incident started (season 2 of JJK) and I couldn’t wait week by week to know what would happen so I started reading and now I am beyond the anime, I know a lot of things that are going to happen next.

    jujutsu kaisen vol 7

    The Keeper (Stars Above)

    If you read The Lunar Chronicles and love it, then this is definitely a most-read, though I do recommend reading after finishing TLC.

    lunar chronicles stories

    The Lost Book of the White

    Ah, the shadow world, and my obsession with Shadowhunters and Warlocks, and everything in it. The Lost Book of the White just adds to that.

    blog eachpage quotes shadowhunters

    Lock Every Door

    Yeah, I read it. And yes it was alright.

    book mystery lock every door

    Fruits Basket

    I fell down the rabbit hole and didn’t want to come back out from it at all.

    @each.page

    Well… well… well πŸ‘€πŸ”ž #animeduo #animeduofilter #yessir #animetok #animemen #jujutsukaisen #jjk #fruitsbasket #furuba #hatorisohma #sukunajujutsukaisen #sukunaryomen #honestreaction

    ♬ YES SIR – tlc

    Fruits Basket (2019), checked. Fruits Basket (Manga), checked. Even Fruits Basket (2001 ver), checked. And only 1 conclusion, I have a serious problem with toxic characters but also with protecting damaged ones. It’s a 50-50 thing.

    Dune

    It was a long read, I won’t deny it and sometimes I didn’t think I would make it, but I pushed through it and beyond the storm there were some interesting things about this book that I really enjoyed.

    dune book cover 50th anniversary

    β€œDeep in the human unconscious is a pervasive need for a logical universe that makes sense. But the real universe is always one step beyond logic.”

    Chasing the Boogeyman

    If you follow my blog, you might know already that I don’t have a review for this one. And well, that’s all you need to know about what I thought of the book.

    Re-read

    Horimiya

    I loved this so much last year that I had to have it on my bookshelf and well, I re-read it too. The first three volumes at least.

    LDK

    I like L❀️DK, but there’s something about it that doesn’t convince me 100%. I still re-read the first 2 volumes and enjoyed it, too. I haven’t finished the whole series though.

    Onyx

    I think this was this year, but I can’t remember exactly when… it still a good re-read no matter when. Lux is a favourite series.

    onyx quotes book

    I’m sure that I’m missing some re-reads, but these are the books that I read this year. Did you read any of these as well? Let me know in the comments.

    Don’t forget to stop by my social media, too, for some fun moment from books, Manga and Anime.

    Thank you for reading, dearies!

    Happy end of December! πŸ˜Šβ„οΈ

    Friday Flashback: Fruits Basket (2001)

    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

    Title: Fruits Basket

     (γƒ•γƒ«γƒΌγƒ„γƒγ‚Ήγ‚±γƒƒγƒˆ, FurΕ«tsu 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 (ζ„›θ”΅η‰ˆ γƒ•γƒ«γƒΌγƒ„γƒγ‚Ήγ‚±γƒƒγƒˆ) where 2 volumes were compiled into one. Same story. But there are now 12 volumes.

    Hello, dearies! πŸŽ†πŸŽ

    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.

    5 Manga to Start the Journey

    Hello, dearies! 🐱

    This is a difficult one! Why? Because we all have different tastes, and even more varies in Manga, I think. Don’t you?

    But I’ll try to give a well-rounded view… lol, I’m not, this is completely biased and oriented towards what I like the most. So here we go.

    As you might know, I like reading and my manga collection has been growing too, so these are some of the titles that I liked the most.
