Disis19 Hearts...

Helicoprion by Michael R. Cole My rating: 4 of 5 stars I really enjoyed this one. It was exactly what I was looking for in a sharky read. It definitely is on the gory side though, so if that's not for you, you probably want to skip this one. I'm looking forward to checking out more of this author's work! View all my reviews

It's time for round 29 of Rotating Decks, my TBR Game where I have UNO cards help me pick prompts to build my monthly TBR.

Phantoms and Felonies by Lucy Ness My rating: 4 of 5 stars More like a 3.5 I enjoyed this one, but I enjoyed the first book in this series more. It was definitely interesting having the more supernatural elements explored in this one, but it felt like it was missing something for me. Coincidentally, some of the things mentioned in this installment coincided with a TV show I was watching, so that brought a little more entertainment to this story for me. If more books in this series are released, I'd definitely be interested in reading them and seeing how our main character grows into not only her job, but her abilities. View all my reviews

Ghouls Gone Wild by Victoria Laurie My rating: 5 of 5 stars More like a 4.5 I really enjoyed this one on re-read that I had to raise my rating. I listened to most of it, but I finished it up physically. This one definitely amped up the physical dangers to the crew and this was a turning point in the series regarding some of the character relationships and the course of work our characters are doing. Really looking forward to the next one as I remember it being one of my favorites. View all my reviews

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 my first week of the Choose Your Own Adventure Readathon, some manga shopping, and another July Wrap Up. ~Mentions~ Persona 4 Volumes 1 & 2 by Shuji Sogabe/Atlus House of Earth and Blood (Crescent City 1) by Sarah J Maas Ghouls Just Haunt to Have Fun (Ghost Hunter Mysteries 3) by Victoria Laurie Fullmetal Alchemist Volumes 7-9 by Hiromu Arakawa Mission: Yozakura Family Volume 2 by Hitsuji Gondaira Choose Your Own Adventure Readathon from Chelsea Zhao Sharkathon 2023 Announcement from Paginator Magical Readathon Autumn Equinox 2023 Announcement from Book Roast 801 Readathon Announcement from 365 801 Amy from AStar Reads

It's Manga Monday! Today I'm sharing my first impressions of Honey Lemon Soda and Blue Lock. 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 June 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 ^-^ ~Mentions~ Disis19 Diaries July 16-22 up on Wednesday 7/26
