Reading Week

In the spirit of university students taking a Reading Week this week, I'll be taking a short break from blogging and posting content. Not only do I have my own reading to do for work, I also want to catch up on some ARCs and books that have patiently been waiting for me.

Here's a fun fact I learnt when I looked into Reading Week a bit more:

"For post-secondary institutions in anglophone Canada, it is common to have "reading week" or "mid-term break" during the third week of February, coinciding with Family Day." Source: Revision Week

I'm happy that I can have my own Reading Week! I'd love to do this more often, although it might lose its meaning if I turned every week into one 😂

Review: Red Fairy & Fox - Red Fairy & Fox Adventures #1

Many thanks to the author for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own. Book Synopsis A portal fantasy for lovers of Alice in Wonderland and the Chronicles of Narnia. Even when they surrounded her, she was separate from them as she was separate from everyone…” Red wishes she wasn’t the queen. During another lavish, boring ball, she follows a fox into a puddle. The world she enters is nothing like her own: brown, barren, and full of strange creatures. In this world, she is a lowly farmhand. With every passing day, there’s no sign of the unhelpful, snide fox who brought her to the mysterious land. When she is forced to accept her destiny, she can no longer ignore the threats on her kingdom nor the straining of the magic. Two kingdoms’ fates rest in Red’s hands, but she must first decide to become the hero her people need. Source:...
