Book Review – Starling House
I stalk my friends on Goodreads, and that’s how I noticed Starling House by Alix E. Harrow. Okay, context. My reading fam enjoys vastly different genres. One of them might review a book as ‘5-stars-heart-emoji-squee!!!!!!’ while another might give the same book 1 star or a hard Did Not Finish (DNF). Since the start of…

My Least Favourite Trope: Resurrection
Friends, this was a close race. Just as I have a long list of adored tropes, the ones I don’t like are myriad. I don’t read Dubcon and I hate Born Sexy Yesterday. But the most commonly recurring trope that has the power to ruin a book or series for me until the end of…

Game Review – Dead Cells
Dead Cells is a rogue-lite action platformer with fluid, ever-changing settings and a slew of unlockable weapons and skills, in a ‘just one more run’ game model. In simpler terms, it’s one of those perfect storms that keeps you on the couch, controller in hand, for hours. Before we get to the review—all opinions expressed…

Book Review – Iron Flame
Picking up from last week, let’s talk about Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros. Before we get to the official review, a disclaimer. All the opinions shared in this post are my own, are honest, and I’m not compensated in any way for expressing them. This post contains major spoilers. As I mentioned in the last…

Book Review – Fourth Wing
I have to be honest with you, and maybe this proves I am the old crochet lady I feel like most of the time, but I have no idea what is trending on Booktok. No wonder they call ‘us geriatric millennials’. 👵 The point is, I’d never heard of Fourth Wing until my cousin Shants…

Review – Keoker Polymer Clay Cutters for Fall
A good clay cutter makes everything better—this is a fact every polymer clay artist learns in a hurry. Choosing quality cutters can be a difficult task. I’ve purchased designer cutters for a pretty penny from Etsy-exclusive stores that don’t work at all, and I’ve also bought the cheapest possible cutters from random import stores that…

Review: Rogue Adventure
I don’t often review games on the blog, but I might try my hand at more of these in the future, especially since I adore this game! But first, a quick disclaimer. As with all my reviews, I don’t receive compensation for my thoughts or opinions (I’ll state it clearly if that ever changes). I…

Review – Tooli-Art Acrylic Paint Pens
It’s been a hot minute since I last did an art supply review, so I figured my new paint pens would be the perfect transition back into this kind of post. Before we officially begin, I’d just like to say this isn’t a sponsored post. All products mentioned below were purchased by me or my…

The Currents Post
Friends, one of my cousins asked me to pick up these currents posts last year sometime, and it just slipped my mind. Sorry, Tanja. Better late than never? Let’s jump right in. For the first time in many, many years, I’m listening to an audiobook. I don’t have anything against audiobooks, really, it’s just that…

Why Does Fandom Forget Ron Weasley?
These are the kinds of questions flitting about in my brain when I’m awake at 3am. Riveting stuff, am I right? Do note that this post contains major spoilers, and is basically one long opinionated ranty rant. Anyway. The backstory. I don’t really read a lot of fanfiction, except if it concerns Dragon Age. And…
