So, I have sat on this review for… forever. Together, the will stand against the night. Now, with hope for the future fading, three young survivors of vicious demon attacks will dare the impossible, stepping beyond the crumbling safety of the wards to risk everything in a desperate quest to regain the secrets of the past.

Once, men and women battled the corelings on equal terms, but those days are gone. ![]() For hundreds of years the demons have terrorized the night, slowly culling the human herd that shelters behind magical wards–symbols of power whose origins are lost in myth and whose protection is terrifyingly fragile. ![]() As darkness falls after sunset, the corelings rise–demons who possess supernatural powers and burn with a consuming hatred of humanity. ![]() 6/10/2023 0 Comments Disney cruella manga![]() i love villain origin stories, and will definitely enjoy reading more along similar lines. ![]() however, i found learning about the history of a disney villain to be very fun. the characters weren’t particularly likeable either. The plot wasn’t particularly interesting, and i assume it’s of no fault to the author (being a film adaptation). ![]() being a movie adaptation, i really look forward to watching the new movie (yes, i’m surprised i haven’t seen it either!!)

While i haven’t seen the movie yet, but i found the manga to be a very interesting read, providing a fresh look into cruella as an indidual. ![]() 6/10/2023 0 Comments Magpie elizabeth day twist![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() After settling into its initial disturbing narrative, the central surprise is a reversal akin to that employed by Lauren Groff in Fates and Furies or Sarah Waters in Fingersmith. Magpie – that sense of usurpation in the title is appropriate – is a clever novel. Why is Kate so intimate with Jake, and why so familiar with the house? Until Kate arrives as a lodger, and Marisa’s sense of self begins to erode. Apart from Jake’s frosty and controlling mother, Annabelle, who calls unexpectedly one day when Jake is out, all seems ideal. Jake wants a family, and so does Marisa – acutely so, as her own mother left with Marisa’s baby sister when she was seven. A children’s illustrator, she even has room there to have her own studio. Within three months, Marisa has left her small rented north London flat and moved into Jake’s spacious place in Battersea. This romantic cliche has a double-edged meaning, and warning signs flash as the twists and turns of Day’s plot unfold. ![]() At their first physical meeting, “she felt a crackle of energy, a fusion of some sort, as if two molecules had collided and meshed and sparked a new thing”. Marisa has found the man of her dreams online: Jake. I nfertility, surrogacy, sexual assault, mental illness and a lot of desirable housing stock might seem too much for one book, but with her new novel, Magpie, Elizabeth Day pulls off a polished and creepy thriller which probes at the heart of what it means to be able to conceive a child – or not. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Instead of the beautiful family life she dreamed of creating for her nieces, Rebecca feels as if her world is being torn apart by two different cultures, leaving her to question her place in the Amish community, her marriage, and her faith in God.
