Going into reading this manga, I knew it was going to be dark and emotional – not too different from other manga I’ve read before. What I was not expecting was to be left with an existential crisis on the philosophy of why we are here and why we were born! The illustrations of the animalsContinue reading “Book Review: Before You Go Extinct”

Book Review: A Fire in Their Hearts
Here is my review for the novel, A Fire in Their Hearts by Philip Paris, publishing later next month: Historical fiction is my favourite genre, so I was captivated by the description. The prologue really drew me into this story, but unfortunately it is a slow read until the book catches up to where weContinue reading “Book Review: A Fire in Their Hearts”
Book Review: The Emperor of Gladness
I recently started looking out for potential ARCs (advanced reader copies) of books that I’m interested in to read and give my opinion. I’ve been able to read a few on NetGalley and I wanted to share my review of The Emperor of Gladness which came out earlier this month. I read this novel beforeContinue reading “Book Review: The Emperor of Gladness”
Book Brief #3
It’s been a while since I’ve done a book brief! I’m wanting to get these posts in the mixture again regularly because with how many books I read in a year (last year was 105), I’ve got plenty to share! Currently reading: JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure – Part 4 Diamond is Unbreakable Vol 1 I firstContinue reading “Book Brief #3”

One-to-One Beauty: Why I’m a Fan
Going to get your hair or nails done in a salon can be intimidating and anxiety inducing. You may feel like you are being watched by others or judged for your questions. Sometimes you feel like have to talk to them or the stylist/beautician doesn’t want to talk back to you. Here is my experienceContinue reading “One-to-One Beauty: Why I’m a Fan”
Postal Museum
This past weekend, I made the trip into London to meet up with one of my penpals to visit the Postal Museum. I thought I would share my experience of the mail rail and the museum itself. The museum is located in Central London, not far from Chancery Lane and Farringdon Station. I couldn’t findContinue reading “Postal Museum”
Fairs & Festivals: My Easter Break
For those who do did & didn’t celebrate Easter, I hope you all had a wonderful break and time with loved ones. Here in the UK, we get both Good Friday and Easter Monday off as bank holidays. This allowed us to spend some time around the house and go out to do some funContinue reading “Fairs & Festivals: My Easter Break”
Writing Battle
From last month to yesterday, I spent time competing in a writing competition called Writing Battle. Writing Battle is exactly what you would think – duelling against other writers for a cash prize. This round I participated in was a 2,000 word short story. Each contest in the battle is given three cards – oneContinue reading “Writing Battle”
Unapologetic Me
It’s been a while, hasn’t it? I’ve been toying with the right words to say as to why I haven’t felt the strength to write for myself, why I decided to step into the unknown, or why I let this blog go quiet for over a year. Recently, I watched a video made by aContinue reading “Unapologetic Me”
