Drums of Autumn: TBT

“But a man is not forgotten, as long as there are two people left under the sky. One, to tell the story; the other, to hear it.”

Author: Diana Galbadon

Genre: Fantasy, Time travel, Romance

Series: Outlander (Book #4)

OMG! It’s July already!😲 Almost August! 🥲

Hard to believe but half the year already, I need two months back.

Anyway, have you read the Outlander books? I read up to this book, which is book 4, then started book 5, and… I stopped without meaning to, I really should go back to it.

But today’s throwback is about Drums of Autumn, which is book 4 and it introduces so many characters in a deeper way.

Brianna. Roger. John.

Back in DoA, It’s life in the past but what I liked about it was Brianna’s journey. Alright, that’s spoilers if you haven’t read any of the books and you have no idea who anyone is other than Jaime and Claire from the show, and that if you only watched season 1, which is book 1 (Outlander). I don’t blame you if that’s all you watched though, it was a good season and a great start, but there’s more to it.

My Happy Marriage #1 – Light Novel Review

Will they like each other in the end?

Author: Akumi Agitogi

Genres: Romance, Fantasy, Fiction, Historical Fiction

Other names: わたしの幸せな結婚. Watashi no Shiawase na Kekkon.

Original published date: January 15, 2019

Page count: 153 (156 with Afterword)

🤩📖

Welcome, dearies! 💍

This is the first time I do a light novel review.

A light novel, or ライトノベル (raito noberu) in Japanese, is a popular form of literature originating from Japan. It is typically categorized as young adult fiction, with its primary audience being teenagers and young adults in their twenties.

However the review still remains the same way as it is me rambling here. Alright, alright, today’s novel is My Happy Marriage #1, why specify the one? Because so far there are 8 books in this series. I’m glad I didn’t know about it back in 2019 when it came out for Japan because I wouldn’t have been able to read it as only on January 18, 2022, did the English version come out. And thanks to Yen Press, it seems like I’m always promoting them but I really am not, I wish I got free stuff but true is that YP has a lot of my favourites so I often find myself buying the manga and books from there. In any case, I got MHM in the mail back in June, you can check out the book mail for it here.

June Mini Book Mail: Manga + Light Novel

The happy mail that I love sharing: Book Mail!!!

Welcome, dearies! ✨️📚

I have some book mail to show off…

This is a mini book mail as the name clearly states because I got other things in the same package and only 1 manga and 1 Light Novel along with that.

So, I have never owned a Light Novel, not even on Kindle so I was excited to show of this one: My Happy Marriage. You might know it as: Watashi no shiawase na kekkon, and yes, this is an anime (you can watch it on Ntflix). In any case, it’s super cute, the cover I mean.

Season 1 Recap

2014 Reads

So, what was on the TBR back in 2014? I can barely recall what I read last year, but let’s give it a go! 😊🩷

Wow! 2014, ten years ago? You’re joking…

It’s still 2021 for me. 😆

What books were out in 2014? I can’t even remember, I was probably reading a Shadowhunters book, I think I started around that time.

This one acts as a Flashback Friday too since we’re remembering all of these books. 😊

Also, fun fact, 2014 was the Year of The Horse. 🐎

And, of course, don’t forget to check out 2009 Reads and 2011 Reads.

The Only Cookbook I would consider buying: Stardew Valley

‘Welcome to Stardew Valley, where each season brings a new crop of bountiful food to make for friends and family. From farm staples like veggies, fruit, milk, and eggs to foraged mushrooms and berries to fresh fish, there’s always something delicious to put on the table.’

Hello, dearies! 📖🍴

Stardew Valley upcoming cookbook, official book and filled with all the recipes. Is Darn cute and I want one.

Alas, I saw it recently and I can’t get it on Amazon because they don’t freaking ship to my country? What is this, the 1500? Oh wait, that has nothing to do with it, there has been methods of transportation since forever.

Anyway, sorry for the rambling. I will have to go look for it on Barnes and Noble or somewhere else, know of a good one? Let me know.

Taken by a Dragon: Book Review

‘Possessed by a need to save a beautiful Amazon warrior from the vision he witnessed, Loke snatched her from the midst of the battle between the Third and Fifth realm of the demons, and carried her to his home deep in the black mountains of Hell to protect her.’

Series: Eternal Mates

Author: Felicity Heaton

Genres: Dragons, Fantasy, Romance, Drama, Urban

That title sounds a bit stronger than the book actually is…

It took me a while to finish to be honest.

But the last 10% it came rolling back to life.

Also, one chapter was dedicated entirely to introducing a new character and get your attention to another book. It was too obvious but it did the job because I added that book to my TBR 😅😆. I’m a sucker for fantasy, angels, and romances. As I have previously stated on these reviews about the Eternal Mates Series.

Hello, dearies! I might end up reading all 19 books one day. For now, I’m mixing and jumping among them, even when I usually like to read books in order, this particular series can be read like this almost without problem.

Well, it hadn’t been such a problem so far until this one where there were some characters that I knew who they were but didn’t know they ended up together, so spoilers for me. 🥹🥲 But it’s alright, I brought that on myself for skipping books.

Spoiler Time Sunday: TLC Scarlet

What is it about Wolf? How is Scarlet going to figure out the dark secrets he hides? She might not, or she might be in for a surprise. 🍅

Hello, dearies! 🍒🍅

Welcome to a new spoiler time Sunday, this time it’ll be for Scarlet, book #2 in The Lunar Chronicles Saga.

Heads-up, I love these books. 🌒

So, I might have more of these coming up. There’s a lot to say about these books that might be spoiler.

TBT: Kissed by a Dark Prince

“Olivia thinks it’s her lucky night when a dangerously handsome unconscious fae ends up on her inspection table. He’s her chance to redeem herself with her employer, the demon-hunting organisation, Archangel. But when the tall, dark and deadly immortal warrior awakes, she gets much more than she bargained for…”

Hello, dearies! 💜

This one acts as a TBT because I had read this one before, but I re-read it again recently and it almost felt like the first time 😄.

I could barely remember what happened on this one, but one thing was clear, I didn’t misremember the fact that I freaking loved this book. I knew there was a reason for me to like Tempted by a Rogue Prince so much (book #3 in this series). It’s all because of the incredibly honest princes here. Wow.

Tempted by a Rogue Prince 🤴 Review?

‘Unwilling to fall under the control of anyone ever again, Vail must escape before the Fifth King can use him as a pawn in a deadly game of revenge.’

Author: Felicity Heaton

Series: Eternal Mates

Genres: Paranormal, Paranormal Romance, Romance, Fantasy, Demons, Fae, Vampires… romance 😎

5⭐

Hello, dearies! 🌹

I recently finished Tempted by a Rogue Prince (Eternal Mates #3) by Felicity Heaton, I read this one fast and through the night, not because I didn’t like it, oh no, no. By the time I realised it I was so engrossed by this story that I was actually surprised. It’s been some time since that happened to me.

Spoilers ahead.

About TBARP
