Illumicrate #28: December 2024
Time for book 6 of the 7 backlog bookboxes, and this one isn’t really that backlogged, considering I received it not that long ago. Well, a month ago, but considering the period, it is understandable that updating about this box wasn’t my priority 😉 . I am talking about the Illumicrate box from December, as you could already deduce from…

Page & Wick #5: November 2024
Back today with the catch-up of my overdue book boxes. We are at number 5 of the 7 now! This time for the third and last time an overdue Page & Wick, one that I had chosen very consciously, because the predicted author is one that I really like to read! I am talking about the November box with the…

Page & Wick #4: September
Day 4 of the overdue book boxes and I’m back with a Page & Wick one. Due to the delays of the July box, I hadn’t paid much attention to the renewal that was charged on September 1st, even though I had decided to start being a bit more selective with all my subscriptions and would start skipping more months…

Illumicrate #27: November 2024
Day three of posting my overdue book boxes! Today it’s the turn of the November Illumicrate, which I got my hands on on the second to last day of its month. The theme of the November box was Time is running out, which will contain a fantasy book aimed at an adult audience in which the hands of the clock…

Fairyloot Adult #34: November 2024
My second overdue book box is this one from my Fairyloot Adult subscription, namely the November box. I received this one in the penultimate week of November. The theme of the month was Fortunes Found with a book that would be perfect for readers of cozy fantasy who enjoy found family, friendship, and self-discovery. This book was The Teller of…

Page & Wick #3: July 2024
Despite my intention to catch up on my missing unboxings over the Christmas break, I found other things to do and my blog got neglected once again. Since I can’t help but be a completionist, it doesn’t really feel right to leave it as is, so I decided to upload the missing book boxes anyway, including the ones I received…

Read in December 2024
I finished November with 89 books on the counter – 94 if I count the DNFs – so I suspected that I would not reach my reading goal of 100 books this year. But a combination of fast audiobooks, shorter stories and cozy devourable books proved me wrong! I finished December with 13 books, good for 3718 pages. The average…

Read in November 2024
In December I always have all sorts of plans for the blog, to get everything in order so that I can start the new year with a clean slate. But just like every year I have all sorts of other plans, besides the fact that it is already a busy month, which makes time run away from me a bit.…

Illumicrate #26: October 2024
My October Illumicrate was delivered in the first week of November at a parcel point. This month I had contemplated skipping, because the teaser indicated that it would be a YA crossover book. But then I read the rest of the teaser and couldn’t skip. The theme for October was Colours of Magic, about how everything on earth and in…

Fairyloot Adult #32: October 2024
I’m almost caught up on my backlog of subscriptions! As I write this, I still owe you two Fairyloots and Illumicrates each, 2 for October and 2 for November. The first of these I received was the Fairyloot adult for October, delivered on the afternoon of the 22nd of that month. The problem was that I wasn’t home at all…
