Limited Edition/Collector’s Edition FairyLoot Box: The Queen of Nothing

by themarlenamarie2 Comments on Limited Edition/Collector’s Edition FairyLoot Box: The Queen of Nothing

IT IS HERE.

Not gonna lie, I got the notification that I was going to have to sign for it but never got the notification that it had been shipped to begin with. When I got the box I started freaking out, because this limited edition version is everything and nothing all at the same time. Nothing, because I already read the book. Everything because I have been waiting forever for it!

If you haven’t seen my review for the book. It is here. The series is here.

Without wasting more time! Let’s see this box!

Magical Folk: FairyLoot Box

by themarlenamarieLeave a Comment on Magical Folk: FairyLoot Box

It is here! I’m so excited. I got three book boxes all on the same day. As such it was like an early Christmas. I will be getting so many books for the next few months, with book boxes and Christmas, actually, so I’m not even worried about next year for content to read. Let’s get into it!

The Folk of the Air Series Review

The Folk of the Air Series Review

Save me I am a fool.

I adored this series from the beginning to the end. I was hyped up for it every step of the way and maybe one day I will step back and reanalyze it and break it down and take away the magic of it.

Today is not that day.

Below you will have my series review for a series that has captured my heart and enraptured my soul. I know that not how many will feel, and I understand that not many will care.

However, this was the reason I made my blog. For book series like this.

Customary warning: This is a reminder that these are my personal opinions. My thoughts and feelings are not your thoughts and feelings. I may not always be the target  audience for a book; sometimes I am. If I do not like a book, that doesn’t mean you’ll dislike it. If I love a book or simply like a book, you may hate it. Take everything I say with this knowledge. If it sounds interesting to you despite what I’ve said, then go ahead and read it. You’ll only know you like something if you read it yourself.

That being said… Spoilers Ahead

December of Dragons (December TBR)

by themarlenamarie2 Comments on December of Dragons (December TBR)

As I mentioned at some point earlier in the year, I decided early on that I would create a book event for myself all about reading books about dragons. I decided early on what books I’d be reading this month. This list is a priority list. Anything that I do not get to I’ll end up reading next year’s December.

This isn’t particularly a challenge, as I have no real prompts for this month outside to read as many books about dragons as I possibly can. (To get dragon-ed out, I suppose. Is it even possible?) I have saved on reading so many great books about dragons this year. I’m not sure you understand how much my heart has wept.

With as many dragon books that there are in this world –trust me. I would know. I’ve checked — this event will be going on a long while. I also don’t plan to actually finish all the series I have listed here. I had hoped to read the Pern novels this time around (I have not), but there are too many other series I need to complete that are going to take the place of those books. The same applies to the Going Down in Flames series.

Next year. Next year.

Either way I have a lot of books to read.

Without further ado, my list for this December of Dragons.

November Reading List

November Reading List

I think that this is the first time since August that I finished… no not even in August did I finish my TBR. This is intense. Well, I finished it excluding Fire & Blood, but that’s like a text book and did we actually expect me to finish it? No.

The October FairyLoot Box was a book I read in October, as a note, so that didn’t end up getting read. I feel like I would have read more if I had The Blood Mirror on hand when I finished The Broken Eye. I did not. Without much more to say, let’s get into this.

When you decide not to do reviews for half the books you read in a month, the number of reviews drop like flies. December will probably have a lot of reviews or nearly none at all, I feel as if it is going to be determined by how I want to split up the reviews for the month with all the dragon books. Truly, I have no clue.

Until Next Time!
