Merissa (12934 KP) rated The Starfolk Arcana (The Starfolk Trilogy #1) by Martha Dunlop in Books
Jul 21, 2022 (Updated Jul 26, 2023)
I wouldn't call this a romance book, but rather a story with romantic elements. There is a lot of back and forth between Beth and Jonan as they try to work together, past lives and tarot cards notwithstanding. The whole world seems to be under Amelia's spell, and they need to stop it. It is an uphill battle though, as it is easier to give in to fear than to fight it.
Full of twists and turns, you are never completely sure who to trust. I understood Beth's frustration and hope for the general population but I found her blindness to her roommate to be just as irritating for me.
It does end on a bit of a cliffhanger which definitely left me wanting more. A great read I thoroughly enjoyed and have no hesitation in recommending.

Bong Mines Entertainment (15 KP) rated Good Things - Single by Kelaa in Music
Jun 18, 2019
“Good things come to those who don’t wait around. I can’t let you slow me down. F**k you and your lies. Chase me when I rise. Get blinded by my light. Good things come to those who don’t wait around.” – lyrics
‘Good Things’ is the first single from Kelaa’s upcoming EP.
The likable tune contains a relatable storyline, pleasing vocals, and vibey instrumentation flavored with an electro-pop aroma.
“‘Good Things’ is about not waiting for chances to come but instead create the conditions you desire around yourself, no matter what the obstacles are. ‘Cause, in the end, good things come to those who have the courage to follow their intuition.” – Kelaa
Kelaa grew up in a musical family with traditional folk music from the Kurdish regions of eastern Turkey.
Her musical journey with the project KELAA began after she participated in the program, Who can become a producer?
The message she wants to give is that everything is going to be alright even at times when you are standing at the edge.
The name Kelaa means fortress and is the name of a holy mountain in Kurdish regions Turkey.
The name was chosen by the artist to honor her roots, as an attempt to at least spiritually, preserve a piece of her background as the thought of losing her identity became a daunting experience at times when physical borders hindered her from connecting with her roots.
Creating songs under this name reflects the blended identity, which has formed her growing up in Sweden.
