  • Why you won’t find KDramas like Scarlet Heart Ryeo

    Why you won’t find KDramas like Scarlet Heart Ryeo

    Welcome, dearies!

    I’m sure you love KDramas as much as I do, but if you came here looking for a list of dramas like Scarlet Heart Ryeo… I understand that. I’ve been there too, staring at my screen like, “there has to be something that feels the same.” But the truth is, it depends.

    If you want some of the elements of it, yes, I have a list for you.

    But if you’d like that same multiple characters arc, drama, Goryeo, love, tragic, and so many other genres thrown in there in a perfect blend? There are none, unless you go and read the book (Bu Bu Jing Xin) or watch the Chinese TV show, I think it is a show.

    But I haven’t watched or read the original story because it is in Chinese, and I haven’t found an official book translation.

  • Five Fingers Book Challenge pt. 2

    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.

  • Fruits Basket – Anime

    Fruits Basket – Anime

    Title: Fruits Basket (フルーツバスケット, Furūtsu Basuketto)

    Where to watch? Crunchyroll

    Original run: April 6th, 2019 – June 28th, 2021

    Hello, dearies! 🐱🍙

    Let’s talk Fruits Basket! If you haven’t heard of this anime or manga before, I recommend it. Also known as フルーツバスケット, Furūtsu Basuketto. You can watch it on Crunchyroll and FunimationNow.

    Before starting on this one, I’d like to clarify that this is about the anime of 2019 (essentially a reboot). I haven’t watched the original anime (I didn’t know there was one) from 2001, though that one has fewer episodes, and I think they changed the story from the Manga.

    Kon’nichiwa, dearies! ⭐️

    I haven’t enjoyed an Anime in a while, but this one had me glued to the screen, and the best was that the second season had just aired this year, so I got to see both in one go, problem now is that I’ll have to wait for season 3. Or I can read the Light Novel and not wait for that, so I bought the first one, it’s waiting on my Kindle.

    After saying that, let’s recap on Classroom of the Elite, an anime that makes you doubt everyone and start saying, repeatedly, don’t trust them.

  • Horimiya

    Horimiya

    ホリミヤ
    (Horimiya)
    by Hero, Daisuke Hagiwara (Artist)

    Genres: Romance. Young Adult. School Life. Slice of Life.

    A lovely one.

    One of the first reviews I start with a one-liner I know already. 😄

    Hello, dearies! 💖

    Horimiya (Hori to Miyamura) is one of those that I first watched the anime then read the manga, but it’s alright, you can do it like that as well, there’s not much difference in the story, except for the ending of the Manga, that’s a plus for us readers.

    I’ll jump right in.

  • Blog ReCap 2021

    Blog ReCap 2021

    Hello, dearies! Happy New Year! 🎆

    A New Year, a new life, nah, just kidding, same life as before, it’s only a new number in the year but same things happening. That sounded a bit dark on my end, but it’s also true.

    Moving on.

    Now, I don’t usually do recaps or stuff like this, but here we are because 2021 make me write tons of posts for some reason, so I’ll try to convey the ones I liked the most next. Including those where I rambled on about book characters. 😆

    And sometimes book challenges.

  • 10 Young Adult Books to Add to Our Reading List

    10 Young Adult Books to Add to Our Reading List

    So, this is my first time recommending so many books in one go, but I hope to make a couple of more like this one in the future. I have not read the books I am about to name but the titles called to me or the covers (mostly the covers), so I want to share them with all the readers out there looking for something new to add to their reading list.

    I picked these 10 in the Young Adult section, but they might have some fantasy in them as well. Though I am thinking of making another list, as I mentioned, but just for the magical, fantastical books out there. Unless you want to know about other genres then let me know in the comments. You will find the link to each book at the end of every description. Alright, here we go.
