The Broken Binding Fantasy Sub #4: April-May-June 2024
It’s been a while since I updated on my Fantasy subscription with The Broken Binding (TBB). So far I’ve received three series through this subscription, two as tier 2 and one as tier 1, which is standard signed by the author with possible extras such as artwork. My fourth series became the first series that I had already heard of…

Illumicrate #24: August 2024
Two weeks after I received my July Illumicrate, I also received this August one. The theme for August was Look what you made me do, referring to what can happen when someone pushes you too far. Item #1 is another sword replica. This sword was designed by @Stacey.McEvoy.Caunt and is supposed to be the sword of Oraya from The Serpents…

Fairyloot Adult #30: August 2024
The August Adult Fairyloot got delivered at the end of August, so what I said earlier for the July Illumicrate is apparently not entirely true. If I look at the delivery dates of this year alone, most of my monthly boxes get delivered in their actual month. Surprisingly enough, often even on the very last day of the month, but…

Illumicrate #23: July 2024
My Illumicrate for July was delivered somewhere in mid-August. With the delay in unpacking my boxes on the blog, I keep forgetting that even if a box is for a certain month, the actual delivery of that box usually comes the month after. So actually the delay in that respect is not that bad (I tell myself 😉 ). Anyway,…

Fax the shadowraven
While reading Harbinger of Justice by Andrew Watson, I got the unstoppable urge to crochet a raven, since one of my favourite characters in the book is a shadow creature whose prefered form is that of a raven. Since it was also almost Halloween and a raven would fit in well with the rest of my fall/Halloween decor, I happily…

The Broken Binding Sci-Fi Sub #1: April-June-August 2024
It probably won’t come as news to you that I have serious FOMO about subscription services. So when The Broken Binding announced their bi-monthly Sci-Fi subscription in the same vein as their fantasy boxes, there was really no question about whether or not I would subscribe. heir first series of books would begin in April and end in August, with…

Review: Harbinger of Justice by Andrew Watson
It’s no secret that I watch a lot of BookTube. I love watching videos where people talk about books, whether it’s lists or recommendations or reviews. I just like to see people get excited about books. One of those people is Andrew Watson, whose channel I’ve been following for a while and where I’m also a member of his Discord…

Fairyloot Adult #29: July 2024
My July Fairyloot was delivered at the end of July, just before I left on vacation, so I couldn’t unpack the book until much later. This was a bit of a bummer when I finally got to take a closer look at the book in my box. The theme for July was Living Legends and would feature a fantasy retelling…

Read in September 2024
September was the month for the Autumn equinox in the Magical Readathon. In previous years, the fall semester took place in August, but due to circumstances it was moved forward a month. Although I didn’t post anything about it here, I still participated and with success! In September I read a total of 11 books, good for 3571 pages. The…

Gingham blanket
Besides endlessly starting new crochet and knitting projects, I also sometimes finish something! This project appeared once in an “on the go”, when I had just started it. A niece had shared the happy news of her pregnancy, which for me is always the signal to start working on the baby blanket as a maternity gift! This time my eye…
