Today, I'm sharing with you the fragrances I've been warming in my home over the last week. Includes warm reviews of most of the new Fall/Winter scents from Scentsy.

Books: My Thoughts on Sunburn

Image
Sunburn by R.L. Stine My rating: 4 of 5 stars Entertaining read. For me, the end was predictable but I probably wouldn't have figured it out if I read this when the book was first published. It was still very enjoyable and just the type of read I was looking for when I picked it up. View all my reviews

Disis19 Diaries: July 17-23 | 2022 - Manga Shopping, July Wrap Up 3, and Knitting

Image
Welcome to my July reading and crafting vlog! I've decided to rename these Disis19 Diaries, because that's what these videos really are - diary entries as opposed to following me around while I do things. This vlog will encompass what I finished reading in July. There's some knitting and manga shopping in this one too ^-^ ~Mentions~ Hatsu*Haru Vol 1 by Shizuki Fujisawa Penguin & House Vol 1 by Akiho Ieda Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Vols 1 & 2 by Koyoharu Gotouge Sailor Moon Eternal Edition Vol 4 by Naoko Takeuchi The Lost Hero (Heroes of Olympus 1) by Rick Riordan Extinct by Charles Wilson Monochrome Manga Club Series First Impressions | Hatsu*Haru, Penguin & House, and Demon Slayer

It's Manga Monday! Today I'm sharing my first impressions of Hatsu*Haru, Penguin & House, and Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. I thought I'd have a dedicated video to these selections in case anyone wanted to read and talk about the selections with me here. I also announce the August selections, in case you want to read those and talk with me about them. Let me know your thoughts on these volumes in the comments below, but please no spoilers past volume 1 ^-^ Monochrome Manga Club Playlist

Books: My Thoughts on Extinct

Image
Extinct by Charles Wilson My rating: 4 of 5 stars More like a 3.5 This was the right book at the right time for me. Definitely interesting and it kept me reading because I was in the mood for a sharky book. The action comes really late in the story though, which was a little disappointing for me. I still enjoyed it overall. View all my reviews

Sharkathon TBR | 2022

Books: My Thoughts on The Lost Hero (Heroes of Olympus 1)

Image
The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan My rating: 3 of 5 stars This one took me a long time to get into. I have to say it hasn't grabbed my attention like the Percy Jackson & the Olympians series did. At the end, things did start to get better for me. Now that things have been explained, I'm interested to see what happens in the next installment. I did listen to this one almost entirely. Maybe the change in narrator from the Percy Jackson series made a difference in my enjoyment as well? I will probably try to avoid the audio book for the next one and see if that makes a difference with my experience. View all my reviews

Books: My Thoughts on The Last Fallen Star (Gifted Clans 1)

Image
The Last Fallen Star by Graci Kim My rating: 4 of 5 stars More like a 3.5 I listened to a majority of this book. This one started off very slow for me, but it picked up at the end. Really enjoyed some of the references made within the story. If I hadn't been an avid watcher of Korean Dramas though, I think a lot of it would've gone over my head. The end was interesting enough for me that I will be continuing to the next installment. View all my reviews
