    Friday Flashback: Sekai-Ichi Hatsukoi Manga

    Hello, dearies!

    Welcome to another Friday Flashback, this is a special one for me, because of the nostalgia that sometimes Sekai-Ichi Hatsukoi brings on for me.

    A long time ago, I watched a Yaoi anime, and then, I found out I could read it online, so I did, because there was more story to it than what the anime had shown me, and after 3 chapters? I was hooked even more than I had been watching all seasons of the anime. It was complete insanity from then on.

    Friday Flashback: Stardust

    Hello, dearies!

    Have you ever liked a movie so much that you think the book cannot be possibly be bad?
    Yeah, that’s me with Stardust, the movie.

    This is perhaps one of my top 10 most watched movies of all time, I know it, I recognise the themes, the music, I can quote it. When I read the book? It was a whole different experience, and not in the fangirling, awesome way.

    I know I shouldn’t laugh. But I did when I read some of the questions online about Beautiful Disaster.

    So, I will answer this odd questions because it’s fun, and I like talking about books, more so the ones about the Maddox brothers.

    Have you read this book? If you have not, then there might be spoilers ahead, this is the warning for spoilers. I’ll start.

    Friday Flashback: Clockwork Angel (The Infernal Devices)

    Wow, that took me back, just thinking about it for a second.

    Hello, dearies! 🩷

    Did you know I am Shadowhunter fan? No? Really? You must know, surely.

    Anywho… Clockwork Angel, another one from the Shadow World that I started reading, put down, picked it up again, thought about about what it was about, tried hard to get into what was happening in those first pages, and then when I got it a bit, I started reading full-steam ahead. It was like the world opened up and dropped me in London.

    Too much?

    TBT: The Smoke Thief

    Hello, dearies! 🐲

    It’s been a while since I did a TBT, but recently I have been feeling that longing to re-read a good book and one that I have loved for a while is The Smoke Thief by Shana Abé.

    This was the first book I read by this author I think 10 years ago or so, wow! I did not expect to think back and see that it has been that long since I first picked up and only after a small description and learning that it was about dragons, that was more than enough for me.

    Friday Flashback: Kuroko no Basuke – Anime

    Genre: Sports, Shonen, Young Adult

    Manga by: Tadatoshi Fujimaki

    Anime by: Shunsuke Tada

    Basketball Team: Seirin High (誠凛高校, Seirin Kōkō) 

    Podcast: EachPage Flow Ep. 32 – Anime Chat

    Hello, dearies! ⛹️ I realised recently that I don’t have one for Kuroko no Basuke, which is odd since I really liked this one.

    Have you ever heard of or watched this anime? I hadn’t until Crunchyroll and Netflix put it in my face as recommendation because I had watched… I have no idea what. Honestly, I don’t why the algorithm thought it would be good for me to watch, perhaps because I watched Dragon Ball? That could be it.

    Anyway, I watched and liked it a lot. It’s fun, more so if you like High School, School Life, and Basketball. And Seinen then you definitely can watch this one.

  • A Clash of Kings: Flashback

    A Clash of Kings: Flashback

    Series: A Song of Ice and Fire

    Author: George RR Martin

    Genres: Fiction, Drama, Fantasy, Dragons

    I’m completely mental. Hello, dearies! 🕶️

    Just wanted to say that because I thought for a while that A Storm of Swords was book 2 and not A Clash of Kings, and I was even going to post about book 3 as 2, had the whole thing set up until I went to check the quotes for it.

    But as I can barely remember this book, other than Dany going through the world, trying to find a place for her people and following a red comet in the sky and everyone seeing the comet all book long. Since that’s all I remember, I have decided to look up some stuff online about it and related to you here.

    Friday Flashback: Insurgent

    Hello, dearies! 💖

    The first time I read Insurgent, it was during the rush of dystopia and just after reading Divergent (or close), and they both made me realise how much I liked Dystopia.

    I discovered that this world in the future where everything went to hell was fascinating.

    Series: A Song of Ice and Fire #1

    Hello, dearies! 👑

    I realized that I don’t have a proper post for A Song of Ice and Fire Book 1, aka, A Game of Thrones.

    Of course, I have my very special A Song of Ice and Fire page and a book review for A Dance with Dragons. But the other books I read all in one go and so fast, and so, not putting down this book type of way that well, it all kind of blended together, and then I watched Game of Thrones, so that didn’t help matters. It all just cooled down.
