Reviews from the heart.
Hello, dearies! Another Sunday, another potential day for spoilers!
Before anything, this is my 400th post! I thought it would be fitting to do it with a tribute to a story I love. ❤️
I don’t like spoilers as you know, but I felt that I could answer some odd questions about Cheeky Brat for you, in case you are curious to know more about this manga that is one of my top 5 favourite manga.

Hello, dearies!
Following my Blue Covers book challenge, I decided to take a turn at darker tones and hues and check for dark coloured book covers, but, these are not mystery or suspense, but fantasy or magical.
Do you have your bookshelves organised by colour? I do it sometimes.
It was not so easy as you might think to find these 11 books, but I like research, so here’s the list, you can add it to your TBR or collect these books to make your bookshelves look striking or gothic-like. 📖

Hello, dearies!
Welcome to a mini update, and a bookish one that I didn’t know was moving so fast to completion.
There are some movies coming to the big screens this 2026, other than Sunrise on the Reaping that is. We already knew about it, and we are waiting anxiously and excitedly for it.

Hello, dearies!
It took me some time, yet, again to read a Narnian book, and I enjoyed it more than The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, why? I cannot tell for sure. Have you read these books? Or better question, did you read the Narnia books in publication order or chronological order?
But what is The Horse and His Boy about, truly? The condensed version, it is about a talking horse and a boy who does not know who he is. And no, that is not spoiler as the book description says this specifically.
So, after reading the book, I was glad, but at the same time took a moment to consider whether I liked it or not, and that has been the theme with these Narnian books, this is the third one (I’m reading in chronological order), and all had been: hmm did I like it?
Honestly, yes, I am enjoying the stories, not so much the narrative, because C.S. Lewis, put my reader’s patience to the test with the strange wording and point of view.

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.

Happy Lunar New Year, dearies!
2026 is the Year of the Fire Horse, exciting? I think so, and I like the Chinese Zodiac and the Lunar New Year, I’m hooked.
So, before I go into books that have horses on the cover or are about horses, did you know this about the Chinese zodiac? I didn’t know, and I like to keep myself informed: The Year of the Horse is about energy, independence, and a restless spark for adventure. 🐎 The rare Fire Horse amplifies that spirit even more. And, it appears once every 60 years, and is associated with fierce passion, charisma, and bold, untamed ambition. In traditional lore, Fire Horse years were considered powerful and unpredictable. A year for courage, risk, and charging toward new horizons. 🔥✨
So, this 2026 is a fierce one that we can definitely look forward to enjoying and having a spark of adventure. Alright, enough astrology, let’s do books!
First, you can check the list in video:
If you’re here for my ranting on words, to read, here are a few books that I found, and one that it is actually in my online bookshelf.

Happy Valentine’s Day, dearies!
I’ll add a couple of female leads this time because I feel like I have more to name now then other years when I did similar lists.
So, we have a variety in 2026. And I’ll start with the girls from Shadowhunters because they are my favourite characters by far.
The Dark Artifices. Even at 12 years old she was already badass, and then came TDA trilogy and I was hooked for good.
The Mortal Instruments. Well, from the start Izzy was my favourite and as the story progressed she only grew in my eyes.
The Infernal Devices. Tessa is badass when she wants to. And not just because she is the get two guys for one girl, she has power (abilities) and knows how to use it. 😄
Twilight. Do I need to say more? Alice is probably one of the best characters in the whole Twilight Saga, no comparison needed.
I decided to create my own book fanart for Rue. This is from one of the first scenes of the book before we learnt more about her, but soon after wow, she is strong, charismatic, and witty. I like that in a lead. 🙂
Hello, dearies!
Welcome to a new reader list… because I am nice and like listing random bookish things, so why not manga genres that you can choose from and get you started in reading manga OR simply what to read next…
I have checked some of the ones that I like, and added a few others that I haven’t read but would like to.

Hello, dearies!
Welcome to another rant.
Now, I have not watched the new Wuthering Heights movies, with Margot Robbie as Catherine Earnshaw, and Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff. But? I have seen some scenes and trailers.
As a reader, who liked this book, I do hope to go to the theater and some of this in there:
Be prepared for some spoilers, nearly without context, if you have not read the book.
“I wish I were a girl again, half-savage and hardy, and free.”
“If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be; and if all else remained, and he were annihilated, the universe would turn to a mighty stranger: I should not seem a part of it. “
“Nelly, I am Healthcliff! He’s always, always in my mind…”
“What were the use of my creation, if I were entirely contained here? My great miseries in this world have been Heathcliff’s miseries, and I watched and felt each from the beginning: my great thought in living is himself.”
“I’m wearying to escape into that glorious world, and to be always there: not seeing it dimly through tears, and yearning for it through the walls of an aching heart: but really with it, and in it.”
“Be with me always – take any form – drive me mad! only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh, God! it is unutterable! I can not live without my life! I can not live without my soul!”
“I have not broken your heart – you have broken it; and in breaking it, you have broken mine.”
“It is hard to forgive, and to look at those eyes, and feel those wasted hands,’ he answered. ‘Kiss me again; and don’t let me see your eyes! I forgive what you have done to me. I love my murderer…”
“Honest people don’t hide their deeds.”
So, what about all of these quotes?
Well, if this manner of despair is in the movie, then they did a good one; if not? It did not do justice to the book.
This was never meant to be a book review; I have that here. And if you’d like to check out my current copy of Wuthering Heights, I have a hardcover pink one, which is beautiful but deceiving in looks.
That’s all, I just thought of some of the most memorable quotes from the book and I wanted to share, do you have another quote that is like these? Have you read the book? Let me know in the comments.
Thank you, dearies! See you on the next one!
