A step out my comfort zone but a very good one!
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

Cian is sent on a journey to find out who or what is causing all the deaths in his village.

I really enjoyed this! It's a step out my comfort zone, and a very good one at that.

I'd class it as high fantasy. Very Tolkien-esque, with an epic journey, lives at stake, elves, dwarves, centsaurs, sea serpents on the rampage and a madman, messing with dark blood magic.

Throw in a slow burn sweet romance, between Cian and his guide, Thanyon, and you've got a near perfect book!

Only Cian gets a say, though, and at points, he had a lot to say.

But a fabulous read.

4 good stars

January carries a hush to it, the kind that settles into your bones and makes space for sorrow, reflection, and stories steeped in magic ❄️✨📖

Sealed with a Curse is a tale of loss, abuse, and courage, as Selene, once cherished companion to six Princes, finds herself enduring cruelty born of grief after a kingdom shatters with the Queen’s death.

With only her swans and the kindness of the kitchens for comfort, Selene’s world begins to change when Conway appears, offering warmth, devotion, and the possibility of something more, even as the Gods stir and a terrible curse seals the Princes’ fate.

As the year turns and hope feels fragile, ask yourself: would you choose mercy, love, or freedom when forgiveness costs everything? 💔✨

Ironheart, the TV series, was one of those I took a while getting round to watch.

Possible because I felt it was starting to get to be a bit of a chore to keep up with all the Marvel content on Disney+, plus the fact that I found the character - first introduced in Black Panther 2 - to be a bit on the bland side.

Once I did get round to it, I watched it all in the space of a few days as it was better than I was expecting, mixing the magic side of the MCU with the technological side.

And, yes, while I *know* that reveal at the end is supposed to be a big deal, I've still no real context for it and just what it is considered to be such (other than what I have heard second-hand)

✨ Blessed Festival of Arianrhod! ✨

As a mythology-loving author, this day always stirs my imagination. On December 2nd, we honour Arianrhod — the star-crowned Goddess who descends in her silver chariot to watch the tides and the shifting seasons. 🌙🌊

Her Welsh myths speak of destiny, cycles, and the brave act of reclaiming one’s own path. And woven through all her stories is a gentle reminder that every cycle in our lives carries its own purpose — even the quiet ones, the difficult ones, and the ones we don’t fully understand until later.

As the year leans toward its close, may her guiding light help you step into whatever new chapter is waiting for you — with clarity, courage, and a touch of winter magic. 📚✨
