Books

Elder by S.G Prince

Elder by S.G Prince is the second instalment of her engaging Elvish trilogy. I must say that this book just felt like the natural progression of the story: neither more nor less enjoyable than the first part.

Books

Elvish by S.G. Prince

This book was definitely a nice, cheap, reintroduction, to the world of Fantasy Fiction. And it was so good that I've gone on to buy the second part of the trilogy.

Books

We Should All Be Feminists by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

Like No One is Too Small to Make A Difference, the book I read this month was equally short and sweet. We Should All Be Feminists is the book version of a TED talk Ms. Adichie gave back in December 2012 at TedXEuston. The book simply argues that we should

Books

No One is Too Small to Make a Difference by Greta Thunberg

The book No One is Too Small to Make a Difference by Greta Thunberg is actually just a collection of Ms. Thunberg's speeches since 2018 about Climate Change. If you don't know who Greta is, or what she did, then this book may have less significance in your eyes because

Anime

Goblin Slayer: Goblin's Crown

This month's anime recommendation is actually an anime movie which I think you will enjoy more if you watch it after you watch the anime series first. Goblin Slayer (the series) follows the adventures of a literal Goblin Slayer (an adventurer who specializes in killing goblins) as he makes friends

Recently, I have found myself fascinated by the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). I have been reading up on the different types a little at a time. Nothing heavy, or necessarily scholarly (I discover most of my reading through Pinterest), but a lot of varied, interesting, and sometimes first-person accounts

Time's End

Another project which caught my attention, was Time's End by Theophany. Now for me, this was all about the incredibly thematic release modelled after The Legend of Zelda game: Majora's Mask. The project itself, is a remix of all the soundtracks from the original video game... and if you are
