Last Title

Posted in: 2022 posts | Interest: TV | Netflix | Pick-A-New-Book Jar | Reading

Was watching the season 2 of "Hotaru no Hikari" last night and the internet connection just died. Looking at people's tweets on Twitter, seems like it continued to be unstable (on and off) today. Which is not fun :\

⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰

I finished "Miss Darcy Falls in Love" today... [I might regret this later... XD] so I decided to use the jar today...! Last time for January~!

The book was another example of a case where if only I decide to read it continually, I would have finished it much earlier. Instead of 3 months, I could've finished this in 3 hours. I'm blaming my procrastinating and escapist self for this. As for the book... definitely prefer "Old Friends & New Fancies" to this. It's unfortunate that I already had my fill of Miss Darcy fanfic from that. "Miss Darcy Falls in Love" reads like a slow-burn fanfic where you will shout, "Oh, just kiss already!" at them. We have a new male lead and characters here but I kept thinking I already like the pairing in "Old Friends" so... you see how hesitant I am in reading this? 

One would suggest to DNF it earlier but.. yeah about this. I think it's okay if I don't DNF books that much. I already DNF so many things (like anime, TV shows, Youtube videos... I've made peace with this last year), I'll be fine reading books until the end even if I don't enjoy it. Unless when it really makes me uncomfortable, of course. 

⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰ ⋱⋰

That aside... time to *shake* *shake* and pull out a title from the jar~!

Okay... I got "Kumari: Goddess of Secrets" by Amanda Lees. 

A random book purchased in September last year. Same batch with "Lust" & Joseph Conrad's short stories book. Lol this also felt so random, for today. This looks like an easy read... so I'm glad for that.
