Here I am with another delayed blog post! I won’t give you a long explanation this time so I’ll get straight into my introduction for this purchase. I follow a few bookish accounts which post spoilers as to which book is being included in a book subscription box. As much as I enjoy the mysteryContinueContinue reading “Illumicrate Monthly Subscription Box: July 2024 Unboxing”

Illumicrate March 2024 Book Review: Fathomfolk by Eliza Chan
So, if you’ve read my October 2025 post, then you’ll know that this was the book of the month for the March 2024 Illumicrate book subscription box.

Illumicrate Monthly Subscription Box: May 2024 Unboxing
Another extremely late unboxing. If you’ve read my last Illumicrate blog post, then you’ll know why this is incredibly late. If you haven’t then this is the reason: I had to reorganise and reschedule some blog posts to make way for some other preferred posts. So, all of my Illumicrate posts ended up being pushedContinueContinue reading “Illumicrate Monthly Subscription Box: May 2024 Unboxing”
Book Review: Spin The Dawn by Elizabeth Lim
I fell in love with Elizabeth Lim’s writing a while ago when I read Six Crimson Cranes. I saw a lot of rave reviews of this novel (which came out earlier). So, after years of having Spin The Dawn on my TBR list, I finally got around to reading it. So, here is my review:ContinueContinue reading “Book Review: Spin The Dawn by Elizabeth Lim”
Book Review: The Phoenix King by Aparna Verma
One day the algorithm blessed me and helped me discover Aparna Verma’s novel. I found her on TikTok and I LOVED the way she promoted this novel and that is essentially how I ended up reading this story. While it is a little bit terrifying that the algorithm knew exactly what I am interested inContinueContinue reading “Book Review: The Phoenix King by Aparna Verma”
Book Review: How High We Go in the Dark by Sequoia Nagamatsu
I discovered this novel from GoodReads back in 2022. This novel was nominated for a Goodreads award and I was curious about it. The cover was gorgeous and the title was intriguing. I don’t remember if I read the blurb, but I did see the cover a lot. And by now, I think we canContinueContinue reading “Book Review: How High We Go in the Dark by Sequoia Nagamatsu”
Book Review: Teen Titans: Raven by Kami Garcia (writer) and Gabriel Picolo (illustrator)
I am a HUGE fan of the Titans from DC and coincidentally, I’ve been following Gabriel Picolo on social media for years. I love his DC artwork. His work mainly centres around the Titans and since Starfire and Nightwing are two of my favourites (Wonder Woman is also my favourite but she’s not a Titan),ContinueContinue reading “Book Review: Teen Titans: Raven by Kami Garcia (writer) and Gabriel Picolo (illustrator)”
Some of my Favourite Books of All Time
It’s no secret that I am an avid reader. I have read a lot of books and over time this means that my standards have been raised – I have read plenty of books to know what my preferences are. My Goodreads says that my average rating is 3.5 stars so when I say IContinueContinue reading “Some of my Favourite Books of All Time”
Illumicrate Monthly Subscription Box: March 2024 Unboxing
I am a year late. I know. In my defence I did schedule this post to be posted much earlier, however, I ultimately wanted to post other book reviews so, this poor post got extremely delayed. Regardless, this is easily one of the most gorgeous novels I own AND this was my first full subscriptionContinueContinue reading “Illumicrate Monthly Subscription Box: March 2024 Unboxing”
Book Review: The Witcher: The Last Wish by Andrzej Sapkowski
I was first introduced to The Witcher through fan art. I saw the most gorgeous piece of fan art of Anya Chalotra as Yennefer of Vengerberg and decided it was time for me to watch the Netflix show. At the time, the second season of the show was just released so, naturally, I binged theContinueContinue reading “Book Review: The Witcher: The Last Wish by Andrzej Sapkowski”
