I guess this batch is Jane Austen-related in some way although I'm not sure about Reay's books... they don't sound like retellings from their synopses but I could be wrong. 

"The Secret Diary of Lizzie Bennet" - This book is related to the web series of P&P (modern retelling) that I mentioned last year. Had been in my Shopee cart since I discovered it in BBW's listing months ago. 

"The Brontë Plot", "Lizzy & Jane", "A Portrait of Emily Price" - Oh yeah, I went and found them after I finished "The Austen Escape" that day. Definitely interested to read her other books.

Finished watching PockySweets' playthrough for "Stray". The game where you play as a cat. I was hesitant about watching it earlier but the story caught my interest especially when it shows that cats will outlive us in the future XD... 

Anyway, I think it's a lovely game and I wish to play it myself in the future. Probably will make you into a cat person lol. I enjoyed seeing Pocky-san's "Kawaii!!!~" reactions as he find the cat so endearing in his playthrough XD... Also really loved the Sci-Fi elements in the story: the game combined two of my favourite things, cats and robots (or anything similar) - and this pair surprisingly works (at least for me).
