Reading journal January 2023
The theme of my January reading journal is no coincidence, of course. Since I was behind on setting up my monthly pages, I could use it to draw inspiration from the books I had already read that month. Of course this was Tress of the Emerald Sea. However, instead of going for a green theme, I was inspired by a…

First Law Along #1: The Blade Itself
In my post from last week, about my readathon plans for 2023, you could already read that I was joining the Catch-up Book Club’s new readalong, a book club founded by Becca (@BeccaandTheBooks) to read big intimidating series together.

Read in January 2023
The first month of the year and immediately a bull’s eye in terms of the books read. I started with a book that was very hyped, thanks to the Kickstarter, which I also loved and ended with a a fairly decent read. In between I read a number of nice to great books. Only one book was so and so,…

Fairyloot Adult #7: Spells for Forgetting

As a subscriber to their regular YA subscription, I was given priority to sign up for this new service, and as a book and fantasy enthusiast, I simply couldn’t resist. September was already the seventh box of this…

Read in December 2022
December started out as a difficult reading month. In theory this should be one of the coziest reading months of the year, with blankets and fairy lights, but in practice my mind was busy with so many other things that I had trouble keeping my attention. Once I got into a book and got along with the introduction of the…

Read in November 2022
November was a busy month and therefore a rather fractured reading month, but I still managed to read quite a bit. Not so much the books I had put on my TBR for the month, or at least not all of them. I did finished my 100th book of the year and completed a new favourite series. In total I…

Fairyloot Adult #4: Her Majesty’s Royal Coven
At the end of last year, Fairyloot announced that they were going to launch a new product in March 2022, namely the Adult Fantasy Book-Only subscription. While their standard subscription focuses on Young-Adult fantasy with extra goodies, this subscription would only contain fantasy books intended for an adult audience. That box would then contain only a book, with no extras.…
