This book is a short story , almost shorter then a Novella .

Its about a waitress working  , and all of a sudden her manager  has to go off sick , she's then left to replace and do the manager's jobs and there fore goes on to take over his rountine and left with the responsibilty of taking the owners meal ( Main boss )to room  607  at dinner time.. in the hotel , but its also her 20th birthday .
Its a strange story , but like all his books , are meanigful and interesting , and about kinda everyday things but with a twist , this is the second time ive read this book   , and i thought  that i need to read more from him in the future .
Interesting story , and reccomend to add it to your list of his work . for future little reads .

The strange Library By Haruki Murakami

Picture
Another book by Haruki Murakami the strange Library .. was to say the least a bit weird but fun and a little bit scary at times . I loved the odd image in the book as we progress in the story , you get a page of illustrations to represent the stroy so far . 
Its about a boy who visits the library and  has a nasty experience there . And He loses his new leather shoes . But he gets lovely home made doughnuts while there  , and he gets visits from a mystery girl . 

lets just say it was an interesting read ,..

Novella   short story 

would definetly reccomend to everyone to read .

This messed up Magical FamilyThe (Rolling Alchemists: Book 1) by Cousin Ripley

2/1/2023

Picture
 This book was very well written , it did come across abit confusing towards the middle to the end , but interesting take on a fantasy magical family .
But after the confussion past , i was ok and finally understood the pain and torment the characters had been through from the father as the story went on more and more , the two brothers knew there father was on his death bed and they wanted to find a special item in there parents house , but what they learn in that house is enough to want you to kill someone .  , both brothers needed that item to help in there life and be more successfull . I also was a bit sad when you find out the truth , and i did get angry at one of the characters ,  i loved the story line and background story of some of the characters   . But out of All the characters my favourite was Angus and Mera and her grandmother , with magic  but not much of it , you would not of thought it was about magic or at least involved a magical family , and i think it could have been used more to make it more exciting through out ... EITHER WAY , I ENJOYED THE STORY NOVELLA .  And would definetly read again , and read more from this author  .

Child murder Some graphic violence Sexual content and rape warnings 

ok my first book of 2023 i started it today and finished it today .. i thought this was actually pretty gruesome and very dark in places but i still loved it , its about revenge and all , and magic death decay and lust .  death of a daughter who was pregnant , and revenge over 5 decades ,.. sounds aweasome  right , well it was , i loved characters in it , from the cron to the gypsies and the mystery lady in the woods .
story line was really well thought out as well . The cover is amazing very eye catching indeed . The descriptive words and sentences used  throughtout the book are brilliant and very inspiring to read almost poetic in a way . 
​Lots of blood and gutes throught out this book so beware ....I loved the ending of this book , and hope there is a part 2 . 
​Lots of blood and gutes throught out this book so beware ....and child killing , rape , Some graphic violence , Sexual content . But still loved it all the same . i loved the way it was written .. 

Will certainly read more from this author and will re read this book again , certainly worth the read , but do not recommend to really young teens , as it has rape ,voilence and sex , and very detailed ways of killing kids . so i would say adult reads only . 
​Banners of skull and bone held black flags which snaked on a breeze, and heavy armour gave rhythmic rattle to the death-dealers it encased .
​

brillant isnt it .

This was a kids book , which i was drawn too , for the creepy cover and great illustrations plus the  strange name of the book , i loved her poetic tones through out the book ... the creepy poem was especially inspiring to read .. i thought it was a great book apoem for halloween reads for kids and adults alike .  this book was very dark in the way of colour , and seemed very fun as well . would definetly re read this as a 5 minute read ,.. and any small kids who like stories will love this on their shelves .  loved the colour palette used through out the book too .

Witch Child  by Celia Rees

Lets start with the subject ,.. i love witchcraft books and especially ones that are true stories . the quilt was found with the pages of Marys Diary slipped inside the quilt to hide her story from the god lovers .
Mary is a self proclaimed witch , after her grandmother had been killed for being a witch , Mary who by the help of a Mystery woman traveled across the sea to the americas to start a fresh life away from this country ... , but superstition is hard to escape from where ever you go .... she had reached the americas only to be set upon in the new village a place where she was happy starting a kind of new life , she had meet a new friend an indian boy around the same age .. who taught her alot of the forest and plant life there ,.. one day in the towns meeting house , obadiah wilson from salem looked around and searched Mary out and he accused Mary of bewitching the town girls .. and also the town girls also started to accuse Mary of this too ... infront of the whole town .. Mary ran away with the help of the people who became her friends and helped her escape this down fall .
Mary ended up running away in to the wilderness otherwise she would of been hanged by the people who were true believers of god and thought of her of being touched by the devil as such ... and letting the devil into her soul basically.

I loved this book and although i thought it would be longer than  it was ... i loved how Mary had been a witch but had not brough much attention in the form of spells and rituals as she knew that she had to hide who she really was .. and she did good , she was not seen doing things the other girls did , she  was trying to act normal too . I loved this book , i loved Mary , and Rebeka and tobias and a few others .

Great read , great book and cant wait to start reading the next one in this duology .. 
defineatly reccommend .

ok to continue on with this series , i actually really loved this book too , along with 1 and 2 of this series , i love auren and how special she is , i dont like how she is treated in this book , much like the other books as well , But  i love that she is finding herself and her powers finding her strength to fight , stand up for her self . , i love slade and his gang of wraths , and just hope she gets out ,. i would of left them all behind and just left if that was me ,.. and i think Auren is a character that is loyal to even the worse of people , like ressa , and mist   , i know she wants to save digby too , but i think i would of just gone , i like the story line of these book s and how it all started . all the kings seem to be power hungry and treat people really badly , i just want them all to die in this book . but hey , i was wrong ,.. and its not fair , it frustrates me , that people get treated badly . great book . 
​still has some steamy parts which i think are great addition to the book , its not just about sex and that stuff this story is more to it than that . its just added bonus . 
moving on to book 4 soon .

It’s an adult epic fantasy story blending romance, intrigue, and beautiful imagery.

you are still following the kings and queens in orea .. but mostly you are following Auren the gilded favoured ,king midas's saddle .. but as she has found herself free from her cage , she now is in another cage .. 
shes now in the hands of forths army and even though they do not treat her badly she still feels like shes in a cage ..  can she get to see the other saddles or is she to be kept apart .. follow auren as she sneaks around the army camp to try and figure out what to do next .. from one cage to another auren feels she does not want to go back into one now she has tasted some sort of freedom .. but will she fall so hard on her face trying to avoid what shes really thinking . or will she end up back in midas's cage and controll .
i loved this book . in fact i have read the 2 books in the series straight after each other , and now im on the 3rd .. and still going strong .. i love auren , and sail and digby .. and of course i even like the commander of forths army .. and his side men .. as they are really trying to help her but she doesnt want it . because she is blinded by one man only , the one who uses her and locks her up in a golden cage .
hes out for greed , and wealth and he doesnt care if he hurts auren to get it .. 
​5*/5 * i was so pulled in to this series , and i already have the 4th book ,. so im so excited .

hi its been a while since i read a kids book .. and this one was just so sweet .. its basically what parent hood is all about with the upsets and trails of having kids ... 
i loved the colours of the illustrations ,. not to loud to blind you ... its a lovely story .. and even adults i think will love this book .. for it is a meaningfull tale .
even though being a parent is hard for sure , it has its rewards that we keep forever . this book i give a 4* /5*   but very good for a bedtime tale

​omg ... let me just say this book took me an hour and a half to read ... would of been quicker if i hadnt had house work to do lol .. but i loved it , its one of those books that is short enough to read in a day .. or an hour .. which is why i choose it as one of my 31 books to read this month . 

you follow Rhiya on her quest to be a spartan warrior in her kingdom as her parents were ,. but has a talent for blacksmithing too .. one that beats anyone in her kingdom ... she has been told by her aunt who she lives with  to go to another kingdom as an emissary  to the Northern isles ... at first she didnt want this , but as time goes on as you will see ,.. im not gona give to much away ,. but its exciting and wonderful .. i loved the characters of her and evander , and the queen of the northern isles too .. also youd think that such a small book wouldnt have good world building but it does ... im pleased to say .. the quests shes on soon changes when her life is envoloped with more to think about than her job as a emissary . also abit of sex included so beware .. if thats not what you like then i recommend you dont read .

Ok this was a great book , if you like it a bit spicy than this is your book ,. fantasy with sexual elements in .
I loved the story of Auren and King Midas and his golden touch , the story line and character building are really well done ,  i love the descriptive use of words . 
i think the cover is amazing . but i know alot of people did not like this book that
the story was just not for them ... not everyone will like the same stuff so ...  , i just couldnt put down this book , and ordered the second straight away ... , and Auren just keeps going through stuff in this book ,  you think that she actually hates it there but i think she actually likes being his Number one saddle .. or favored as they say . she finally gets out of her golden cage onlt to find herself in another cage or prison ,. and soon has to defend her and her friends life ... before geting taken by another  , the enemies are always there .. if not this one then the next .  She has to be strong to get through the next few days . where are all the guards and the other saddles from king midas .. she feels alone and scared that they will abuse her like the red pirates did .
​i honestly can not put it down ...its tense in places and yet funny too ...

Maria Preston’s review of Under Loch and Key: Bred by the Lake Monster | Goodreads
Omg , I was abit scared at first to read something so ,, erotic with tentacles etc , but i did it and honestly it made me feel abit horny inside ... its the first book on this kind of sexual stuff so i was abit taken back at first ,.. but it made me smile and i loved the relationship between erik and lillian so much that i wanted to follow it to the end .. great short story , something very different to what i usually read for sure , but not a disappointment . Will read someting like this again, in the future for sure . great background and idea of theme of story . good for a short read to fill gaps in your reading schdule

Omg what can i say about this book of poetry , it was amazing , if you love mythology then you will love this book , if you love poetry , you will love this book .. exciting and descriptive in its words , i found that the lyrical verse with illustrations to match just added so much to the overall book and feeling .
The illustrations were so well done they were like  paintings to my soul ,went great with the overall  theme of the book and gave aweasome affect too  ,  it really adds life to the book and the poems  , ok this is a Greek mythology a kind of battle for dominance as this Enyymion the main character   attempts to wake himself from an endless sleep that was over many years ,.. the poems really sing to me , as i read about greek dominance and all the gods and goddesses through out  mythology  in greek mythology . definetely a re read for sure . very inspiring indeed .

Horrific Moderm Tales by Nick SCHROEDER

OK  So if you like horror then you will love this short stories book , what drew me to this book is the illustrations by the author .. dark twisted and messy style paintings , loved them so much , i also liked the short stories , they were written well and they were interestiong , and not once did i want to stop reading it ... i was pulled along each page with some paintings and illustrations added to help with my experience in this book and give it that feeling that this author had given this book ..to be . Horricific .
My favourite story has to be  i think (out of control) , it was a bout a game controller that came to life and ate the owner of the controller but not to much spoilers as you would want to read them for yourself .
i dont uisually read books of short stories , so this one was one of my favorites . well done to the author , and his artistic accomplishmenet .

5*  definetly 
definetly reccomend to any horror seeking persons

Dial Witch by Jo-Ann Carson

Jane is a witch , she is the 6th daughter of the 6th daughter , She is a good witch who wants to share her magic, by making potions and writing spells and sharing and caring for her community and friends , family and all magical and none magical beings . So she opens a magic shop but everyone is against her , including her familiar. I love how Jane perseveres and keeps trying and tries again and again , she doesnt let all the negativity towards her business bring her down and stop her dreams from happening , I also liked how she wouldn't take any crap from a certain someone in the story (a Dragon shifter) also im not to keen on romances so im glad it wasnt a romance story , this was a good read , not the best ive ever had but something i may want to read again . loved the cat character as well , but didnt like in the beginning when the cat is so against her opning the store in the first place ,. very negative indeed , but loved janes character the most .

my Alien Life A Novelette by J. Martain

My Alien life was marvellous short story , it was about a young  girl who's life was in turmoil, on the day of her fathers funeral her great aunt showed up ,and life again flowed along at a slow pace .
They had made a promise to each other , that she would look after the girl until she was 16 years old then she would leave this world .
They had gone through a lot of stuff together gardening sewing , and talking a lot to each other , and they also nearly had to fight the government to keep this arrangement in place , but with help from the Deputy she managed to keep the girl and live happy for the remainder of time .
This story was touching and heartfelt , and I fell in love with it , the meaning of family no matter how old you are , means a lot if they want to be part of your life .
I will give this another read someday , as I feel it could be re read often .
Family , love , rights , loss,  help and tears , and a little bit of strangeness  were all parts of this story .
5*and well recommended , loved it .

A season amongst dying things by stacey Lauren

OK read this in one sitting , as usual it helps breaks up thick novels i read , and takes me away from more serious reading , it has helped me in a reading slump and giving me inspiration for my own writing of poetry .

My favourite poems in this book are , end of death , None , and Hone , which i thing i could of said most of them in this book . 

But i dont want to spoil it for you guys out there , knowing it was a great read and exciting and invigarating in many ways , because unlike some poetry out there this was more stimulating and exciting , it was warmth on a cold day or a breeze on a hot day ... just wonderful , absolutely wonderful poetry , i have read in a long time , ALSO  well written and the length was just right .

Ok i found it fast paced and the characters interesting especailly  seba a very interesting courier  , it wasnt my type of genre usually but i found he kept me in the loop at all times and i was pulled in when i thought it could not get more tense and exciting , the thrill of the chase , and the shooting i loved , i was sad in places after some deaths in the story , but i found the characters well thought out and the storyline was very detailed and seba definetly was my favorite character , i liked the fake reported . I loved how the author descibed the chasing through out the book  and how far Kamal and Rahman would go to get there score . The chapters were not to long and they were well written .
a great read . 
yer , characters came to life as you read this book , there were some characters i hated and disliked throught especially towards the end like  .But you just cant help but keep reading , i had to re read a few parts becuase i was unsure of a few things as i got lost on some pages , but thats my fault not the authors .
I love Nigeria as the background for this story too .
a thriller with a great story 


may consider other books in this genre from now on

i loved this Novella , it was fast paced and exciting , and it just grabed my attention , i thought the characters and there powers were well thought out , the enemies were different unique 
The world building was amazing and storyline was one of the best i have read in a while , obvisously i need to read more of this authors books .
But overall , one of the best novellas i have read in a while ,
basically “Private  Royn Crowell, is a Senturians , but he has been sent to this outpost where he is treated like an outcast , and then is sent on a mission  , just to get rid of him ,yes he will be able to use his powers , and more than one , he has been sent to find the disturbances in the forest , and was told not to come back until he had found it , or could prove what it was , not a simple mission , and now the smell of death and what he finds in the cave not far away from the people who have been slaughtered Royn must not only fight whats outside in the forest but everytime he goes back to the captain at the oputpost it feels like hes fighting him too , as the captain does  not listen to him . and when its to late its a fight to the death as the Senturians fight unknow creatures on there doorstep , and not only them there are orcs and other nasty creatures to fight as well , find the truth  of what these monsters are up to and how they stop them .

ok ,great read , id been meaning to read this for a while now , but just hadnt got round to it . 
so the book , its one of those books you read that as soon as you start it , you are pulled into it straight away , a young girl , escapes the grasp of her con artist mother , she was also moulded to be a great con as well , for years by her mother , it is such a great story and characters are so well thought out along with the story line and the details make you wonder if the author was ever actually a con artist herself . 
Nora is put through test after test for her mother to con as many people as she can until her mother falls in love with the person they were suppose to con . 
after escaping her mothers grasp she has to put her true talents to work when the bank she visits is held up by  bank robbers and she is held hostage , follow her through her expeiences and find out how she fights back gets her life back . As she has learnt so much from all the girls shes been , and she uses all of them when the time makes it impossible to only be one girl .
great read , love the author .

Time code of a face  by Ruth Ozeki

Interesting looking cover isnt it , yes 

I brought this book around 4 weeks ago maybe .. i like unusual or weird books and covers always catch my eye . 
This one i only brought for the reading side of it , and i am so glad i did , i loved it , its not a novel or novella at all , its about a woman who sits in front of a mirror to examine and meditate on her appearance or looking at her face . 
thats right she looks at her face for 3 hours and really gets to know herself and all her things she doesnt or does like about herself. 
she also tells stories about her life in between time stamps , its very interesting and i really enjoyed this book . i read in really 4 days , could have read faster but i actually was playing elden ring more than  i should have lol .

great read 5*

as you know i rarely give 5 * to a book , but i have given 3 or 3 in the last year ,. it doesnt seem like much to you as the reader but .. this is alot to me . 

i wish i could type faster without making to many mistakes ,.. i think my fingers type to fast and leave things behind or miss them out alltogether , lol .

i hope you all enjoy this book , i highly recommend it for sure .

all our hidden gifts by Caroline O'DONEGHUE

​A girl finds a tarot deck in the chokey after tidying it for the teacher , she ends up doing readings in the chokey for a few weeks until strange things start happening and when she reads for an x friend things go badly after and she needs to figure out how to stop these things and try and get her friend back before its too late .

All our hidden gifts was actually really good ,I loved the idea of the tarot cards and what was happening, and it was fast paced and interesting.
I dont know if it was magic ..but there was alot of weird stuff too. Maybe another world .. like when Halloween is the time when the dead can pass through as the veil is thinest .
Great book and can't wait to read book 2 which is on my shelf waiting .
I would recommend , at least some knowledge of tarot , as there is a lot of references of the cards through out this book , but if you do not it doesnt matter ... but you willo probably want to look them uop . 

 great read , and going to read book 2 soooooon .

A darkly seductive mystery with a supernatural sting in the tail, the novel examines guilt, sacrifice and friendship and we found ourselves growling at anyone who interrupted us during reading. The best bit? It’s the first in a series focusing on four protagonists – Maeve, Lily, Roe and Fiona – who each learn they have an otherworldly gift. Read it now before it’s inevitably turned into a Netflix blockbuster

IF YOU LIKE A GAME KINDA BASED , THRILLER FANTASY TYPE OF READING THEN THIS WILL DEFINETLY PULL YOUR STRINGS .
Follow Beatrice and her trainee on a few quests and a raid , with a few bad turns in the story and in her marriage . but will she ever find the right trainee because  she seems to have to keep on looking for the right one , but seems to be the way with her marriage , not the best relationship either with her husband having a few side dishes of his own , if you know what i mean ..
Also a buff that helps you do what you need to do that beatrice makes, but so much more your see when you read this book , only a short read but well worth the effort .

4*/5*

This read was more like a newspaper then a graphic novel ,it was ilike a magazine newspaper about boredom and finding ways to get interested in after school activities or hobbies etc , interesting as it was , and the illustrations were brilliant , i loved the colour scheme and the way it was layed out ,.. short and funny here and there , well worth the read , but unsure if i want to continue on with the others , 3*/5* but great for a quick read . thats another book off my challenge for this year .
