✨ Review time! ✨ I finished reading THE KEEPE

✨ Review time! ✨

I finished reading THE KEEPER OF NIGHT by Kylie Lee Baker last week anddd I loved it. It was such a deliciously dark read and I adored the way that the world was built around death mythologies such as Reapers, Shinigami and Yokai!

Ren is a half-British Reaper, half-Japanese Shinigami and all she wants is to have a place in the world where she fits in, but instead she’s just constantly told who she isn’t.

She ends up on a dangerous assignment to prove herself worthy, but all of her actions come at a cost.

It’s an action-packed read from start-to-finish, and I’m so excited for THE EMPRESS OF TIME releasing later this year! ❤️

I have a more in-depth review on my blog if you want to check it out: www.luchiahoughton.com ❤️

✨ QOTD: Are there any regional mythologies you’d love to learn more about? ✨

Personally I have a weakness for mythology, so I’d have to go with any and all 😂

✨ REP SEARCH ENTRY ✨

Hi No0ne Designs! 🥰

I’m Chia and I live in Manchester, UK! 🇬🇧 I post book reviews and photos on here, on my Twitter and on my blog 💻

I’ve been a fan of your designs for a while (I think from seeing them in Illumicrate boxes first?) I love adding bookish pins to my collection, especially when they’re intricate and beautiful (big big big fan of the one from the Illumicrate debut box for Jade Fire Gold here, and your gate series!! Love the gate to the monster court sticker you’ve done for Only a Monster too!) ✨

The above are basically the selfish reasons why I’d love to be a rep, but I’d also really like to help introduce others to your store ❤️

I don’t know if I have to talk about myself but if so I’m basically a huge nerd who loves things like dragons, dinosaurs, Ghibli, Pokémon, shonen anime/manga, books (of course) and I love art too! So I collect as much of it as I can in a lot of forms (pins, bookmarks, prints, tattoos even). In terms of fave books, these four are all in that category (and I’d love to find more merch for all of them 😁) ❤️

✨ What was the last preorder incentive you got for a book? ✨

Okay so, in case you’re new here, I read DAUGHTER OF THE MOON GODDESS by Sue Lynn Tan last year and 100% fell in love with the world, I’d been so excited for it since the US cover reveal and it was everything I hoped for and more. Basically. 🥰❤️

I’m so excited for finished copies to start arriving in the post but ahhh these stunning pieces of art arrived today and made my whole week so much better 🥺❤️

The print of all three is by @arz28, and the character cards are by @gracezhuart, swipe for a closer pic of them! 🥰❤️

And a mega big thank you to @suelynntan for running the international preorder campaign for these!! ❤️❤️

✨ Have you preordered THE GIRL WHO FELL BENEATH

✨ Do you have a favourite colour when it comes to book covers? ✨

@lauraajayynebooks tagged me in the #birthstonebookstackchallenge and I was super psyched to give it a go, so I ran up and grabbed some books I thought would be the right colour yesterday for a super quick photo on my lunch 😂

Now… my birthstone is turquoise cause I’m a December baby, but turquoise is such a confusing colour?! Sometimes it’s blue, sometimes it’s green-ish… so I kind of went for an in-between with this stack 😂

- FLAME IN THE MIST by Renée Ahdieh, this is my first time mentioning this on this booksta account but I love this book! Japanese inspired fantasy, little bit of a Mulan twist, would recommend checking it out if you haven’t already! 💚
- CHANCES FOR SERENDIPITY by Natalie Chung, I haven’t had chance to read this yet but from the synopsis alone I know this will be a super-cute read! 💙
- JADE FIRE GOLD by June CL Tan, if you’re new here then this was one of my fave reads of last year. It’s very reminiscent of a Chinese drama (which I’ve gotten into since reading the book 🙈) and has this beautiful found family with the side characters. I’ll forever want more from this world 💚
- THE GIRL WHO FELL BENEATH THE SEA by Axie Oh, I also read and loved this last year! It’s not even out yet but I know it’s going onto my top releases of 2022 at the end of the year 😂 perfect for Ghibli fans 💙

I’ve tagged some of you, feel free to join in if you’d like to but no pressure at all of course! 💖✨
