Tome Thursday: Rage of Krakens

 

Hello everyone!

 

Welcome back.

 

This will be my last blog post until I return from vacation, because I really, truly, desperately need a bit of a break and I don't plan on doing anything but relaxing, swimming, and possibly reading when I'm not sleeping like a baby while I'm away haha.

 

So I'm going to try and make this one count!

 

Tonight's choice is a book that literally JUST released on Amazon and to retailers worldwide, which is somewhat of a feat for me because I generally don't get to new releases this quickly.

 

Normally, I'd let them sit there for a bit until picking them up.

 

But I was VERY lucky to get chosen for an ARC for this book, and because I'd already read a few works from the author, I was super stoked.

 

Juliette Caruso writes SO well, and I AM HERE FOR IT.

 

Without further ado, ladies and gentlemen: Rage of Krakens.

 

Talkie Tuesday: Enola Holmes 3

 

"The puzzle is always as devious as the setter."

 

Hello everyone!

 

I'm back at it again, and mostly on time as well.

 

I can't quite believe it lol, but apparently that's what you get when you actually pay attention to what's going on and everything that might be happening online.

 

I've been a fan of the great detective Sherlock Holmes since ... forever sounds like such a long time ago but, well, it HAS been forever.

 

I used to read the children-friendly, abridged works of his, then watched the show with Jeremy Brett playing the titular character. When Netflix started poking around the Holmes family, of course I was going to watch this, too.

 

And for the most part, I've been enjoying the romp!

 

So without further ado, let's jump straight into what's going to be happening tonight, which is a review of the third installment in the series: Enola Holmes 3.

 

Tome Thursday: Heartland

 

Hello everyone!

 

Welcome, welcome.

 

Today's a very special day, because, unlike my ordinary blog posts, this one's going up EXACTLY ON TIME.

 

Because it's release day, baby!

 

The book we're about to talk about JUST went live around the globe, and man oh MAN am I looking forward to others picking it up and reading it!

 

I stumbled over this author completely by accident through her shifter romances (and well, there might have been an age gap, her ex's father type of deal involved ... oops ...), but seeing her transition to contemporary has been absolutely beautiful.

 

She's such a sweetheart, too! Kes Winter is someone you should totally follow on social media if you have the chance.

 

But now I'm babbling, so without further ado, congratulations to this release tonight!

 

Let's hear a round of applause for Heartland.

 

Talkie Tuesday: The Best Thing

 

"Loving you is the best thing I'll ever do."

 

Hello everyone!

 

The weather is heating up again here, but I might have figured out how to combat everything so that I can keep up with the blog until I head down to the seaside. Because unlike last year, I plan on taking those two weeks off and just relaxing for once!

 

Still, for right now, it's manageable and I'm here to talk about more C-dramas.

 

I am, apparently, in my Zhang Linghe era at the moment, which isn't something I was anticipating and yet here we are.

 

After seeing him in Pursuit of Jade, I of course got bombarded on Youtube and other socials with other dramas of his, so I made a list and randomly picked through it.

 

Tonight's choice of blog topic one by a large margin, because it looked, at that time, to be the only contemporary show of his he'd done, others being historical or fantasy.

 

Which means this is a DECIDED change of pace, but I didn't mind one bit, so hopefully you won't as well as we take a look at The Best Thing.
