Book Review: Immortal Dark

This book is just crazy in a level that it’s dark, full of psychotic people characters (I think calling them morally gray would be an understatement), and something that will make you question yourself whether it’s bad behaviour if you’re trying to be a good person every single day. Immortal Dark is this irreverent story about an unhinged and psychotic character Kidan Adane. She’s an orphaned heiress of one of the oldest arcane houses in Uxlay University.

Book Review: With This Ring

Though With This Ring screams like it’s your typical finding-each-other-again romance which it really is, the entertainment that it gave me is still priceless.

Book Review: The Phoenix Keeper

Isn’t this the coziest and cutest book this 2024? The whole time I was reading The Phoenix Keeper, I felt like I got transported into the world of cozy games (i.e. Stardew Valley, Potion Permit, Animal Crossing) wherein I have to grind my ass planting and harvesting plants, and taking care of my livestock every single waking day and I did not mind all the work because everything’s just so enjoyable. The only difference is that The Phoenix Keeper deals with magical creatures, from dragons to phoenixes to unicorns to griffins to kelpies etc., being raised in a magical zoo…
