Moon & Stars: FairyLoot Box

by themarlenamarieLeave a Comment on Moon & Stars: FairyLoot Box

What an absolute mess. HAHA. I panicked about getting this box. But I did finally get it. Which, is great! It took me forever to get this box and then to take these photos.

January 2020 Fairy Loot Box: Moon & Stars

I think that in general, I did like this box but it was less literary than I assumed it would be. I try to not look at the spoilers before the month comes out. Thus I was not aware this box would be mostly FL original stuff. There were only a few book related items.

I did like a lot of them, despite it not being book related.

February TBR

by themarlenamarieLeave a Comment on February TBR

Halloween is coming early this year as I start off on spooky books. This month, while selecting books, I sort of just pulled what seemed like interesting titles to me. Things I thought I might want to read. However, I know I won’t read all of these. I also know that I will want to read others.

Thus, this list is extremely tentative. In an attempt to get myself back into the love for reading. I’m opening my entire books shelf up to be picked from. I’m not going to limit myself because otherwise I’ll just sit and want to read something that I can’t because it wasn’t on my list to read.

Most of the time I pick the books I really want to read, and I did pick the ones that interested me, but who knows how much I’ll stick to this list.

Powerful Princesses: Unicorn Crate

by themarlenamarieLeave a Comment on Powerful Princesses: Unicorn Crate

So I had the largest panic yesterday. I was going through my shipping tracking for my FL box and it said already delivered. I freaked out because no, it had not been. And I’m here at 9pm writing this trying to figure out what I’m going to do and who I have to call and what to figure out. Anyway. I wake up this morning at try the tracking number I wrote down from my phone. It doesn’t work. And I’m like wut? I looked on my email to for the tracking number again. When I had searched it on my phone the wrong shipping came up first; it was the shipping from last month. Turns out I was just an idiot. It’ll be in today, or should be. If it is, I’ll post its content later tonight or tomorrow. Luckily I got this box, and I suppose that can be your content for today.

January 2020 Unicorn Crate: Powerful Princesses

I was really excited for this box when I saw the theme. Powerful Princesses? Also what it was said to include? I was so ready. And HYPE.

For anyone new, Unicorn Crate tends to have the best unknown reads, and for that reason I’m always hype for the books it ships to me. Let’s jump right in.

The End And Other Beginnings (Stories From the Future) Review

This was an undertaking, not one I’d thought I’d have, really, when I first started reading this. I thought it would be easier. I truly did. It was not. Unless I can get another book read in a few hours, this is the only review you get today.

Edit: I did not get another done

Sometimes, when I write these, I feel like I’m speaking into the void with no real expectation to hear back anything from anyone. And you all, in the void — should you actually exist, I’m not sure sometimes — simply nod your heads and sit there watching.

And I wonder, are they humans or are they bots?

Either way, lets get on in to what this update is about. WARNING THIS IS LONG.
