Outdoor reading with patio lights & beer. This stout tasted eerily similar to the Tiger Malt I drank the other day. It was possibly the sweetest beer I‘ve ever had, which made it decidedly not to my tastes, and at 10.5% it was considerably stronger than most of what I drink. Not a win, alas.
Reread‘s still good, but I MIGHT pause soon to read something shorter. We shall see how I feel after the extremely strong beer wears off.
pickThe love of books seen throughout this manga was amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed the story. I was a little unsure at first because it had a lot of explanation for things that I felt was a little unnecessary, but it didn't take too much from the story. I really can't wait to see where this goes next.
so-soFinished the 2nd Book in the Wicked Years series and it's similar to the Star Wars 2 due to all the political stuff that's addressed. Trigger warning there's more sex and rape scenes in this book as well.

so-soThis book has a lot going for it—sentient plants (some of the best characters in the book), a cozy cottage, raspberry jam, & merpeople. It‘s also really quotable—the writing is solid. And yet, the story itself moves slowly (& the stakes never feel all that real), the writing as good as it is can be is often dense, & I really didn‘t like the protagonist—she annoyed me most of the book. So, I didn‘t like like it as much as many other reviewers do.
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
When I first read this book many years ago, I absolutely loved the story, characters, and humor. I still feel the same after reading this for the second time, however it did lose a little bit of its magic after the initial read. Regardless, I still really enjoy this book and look forward to watching the new television series based off of it!
It's no ordinary castle. It has favorites. It rearranges itself. And someone's trying to map it.
If your entertainment tastes run more to smiling, you'll like this one.
