Happy New Year, everyone! I don't know why I said that with so much enthusiasm. I don't actually feel enthusiastic about it. But it's still a new year, regardless of how I feel, so *shrug* I managed to squeeze in one last finished art piece though, and I am enthusiastic about that! It's Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer Centaur! (His nose gets cold.) (Also technically he's a cervitaur.) I'm...
A few years ago, I made a blog post with recommendations for lesser-known m/m vampire books, and I'm finally back with more! Sometimes when I do rec posts, I include books that weren't really for me because books are subjective and other people may still enjoy them. But so far, with this topic, I've been able to recommend books I personally liked or loved. For some of these books, I mention...
Let's see, what did I do in June... I finally watched Cats (2019)! To be honest, I didn't hate it. It was weird, like everyone said, but some of the songs were fun, and I liked the dancing. I loved the Magical Mr. Mistoffelees! Munkustrap was pretty adorable too. I think most of the weirdness was just from the original story making no sense (from what I know of it), rather than the movie...
In A Bargain of Blood and Gold, a hunter goes to a small town only to mistakenly befriend the vampire and team up against a bigger threat. In Lord of the Last Heartbeat, a mage runs away from his crime lord mother and is taken in by a man whose home is cursed. In Courting Nightfall, a half dark elf joins an adventuring party and heads out to kill the vampire wreaking havoc on town, though he has...
I did a post with opening lines before, and I'm doing it again because I just think it's really interesting to look at the opening lines of books! I don't know about you all, but I tend to just kind of gloss over the first line, in a way, and immediately forget it by the time I'm a few sentences deep. I don't really stop to pay attention to just the opening line specifically when I'm starting...
*Announcer voice blasts out over the speakers*: And now... it's time for the main event! The cream of the crop! The cherry on top! The one, the only, the top ten books of the year post! RAAAAAAHHHHHHHH (Just humor me and imagine crowd sounds here.) Well that was fun! Maybe I should intro all my blog posts with an announcer... Anyway, this has been a weird year. Perhaps that explains why it was...
Next up for my end of the year posts is characters! The lifeblood of books! I just thought it was interesting to note that four of these are main characters, one is a love interest, three are side characters, and two are kind of cheating since I chose all the main characters. I could ramble some for the intro, but eh, no point in wasting time, let's just get to all of the characters I loved...
In The Ghost Slept Over, a man starts a romance with his lawyer when he inherits an ex's estate but is haunted by his ex's amorous ghost. In Their Dark Reflections, a con man and a vampire discover each others' secret and have to work together if they want to beat the real villains. In A Little Familiar, a witch without a familiar finds love with a human familiar he's always had feelings for....
Well, September is over. It's been another tough month. Probably for everyone. I've had a lot of headaches and worries, but I'm gonna try to focus on some positive things for this post. I played some games! If you saw my review of Overland, then you already know how much I've adored it. Since finishing my first playthrough, I've been trying to find all the landmarks and overlooks, just because...
Nathan's back from the Veil, but he's so broken and changed that he's not even sure he knows how to live anymore, let alone fight in the oncoming battle that will determine the fate of the world. Nathan will have to rely on his loved ones and find confidence in himself if he's going to have any chance of beating...
