Weekly Round Up w/e 21st April 2024
♡ Reading I am absolutely devouring The Three-Body Problem trilogy after getting really into the Netflix series. I have read the first two (I literally read the second one in one intense sitting yesterday) and am about to start the third one. They are absolutely amazing, wonderful sci-fi. ♡ Watching I have been loving the…

Site name update: 2024
Hey! I am tentatively thinking about coming back to WordPress. I currently have this site as a sort of personal/nerdy blog, and I’d like to bring my Rebel Badge Club stuff here too. I also have my writing website for my novels. The issue is that this website is a chaotic blend of being called…

Book Review: Devolution by Max Brooks
I love World War Z. The book, not the film (the film being, at best, fine). Max Brooks has a real talent for horror that feels grounded absolutely in reality, and that makes it all the more frightening. Devolution had entirely passed me by, but I happened to see it suggested on the Audible app…

Book Review: Fangirl Vol 1: The Manga
I love the Fangirl novel by Rainbow Rowell. It is one of my favourite books ever, and it is still something I will reread when I need something comforting. It follows Cath, a nerdy college student whose love of Simon Snow (essentially Harry Potter) is the most important thing in her life. I think it…

A change of name
After many years, I am beginning the process of changing my online handles from ‘lordcoledemort’. When I first started using it, it was almost a decade ago, and at the time, it was a cute play on my actual name, Cole. However, as time has gone on and JKR has repeatedly behaved in a way…

The Games I’m Playing In 2021
Or… why can’t I stop playing games I’ve already played? It’s a funny old time, isn’t it? We collectively hyped 2021 up as the end to the misery and suffering of 2020, and yet, unsurprisingly…. the misery and suffering just continues. I live in the UK, where the vaccine rollout is going fairly well (in…

Shameless self promo: my new novel
I don’t often post about my fiction writing here- I tend to keep that on my writing blog, which you can find here if you’re interested. However, in massive and exciting news, I’m publishing my first full-length novel on February 1st: The Scandalous Viscount. It’s a regency m/m romance with steamy scenes, pining and interesting…

Video Game Review: Crash Bandicoot: It’s About Time
I grew up in a house in the 90s with a Playstation: the first one, back before they were called PS Ones. It was a chunky, funky boy which was tragically given away by my mother, leading me to fight the constant temptation in adulthood to buy another one. (I did buy a Playstation 2…

Month In Review: December
I hope, if you’re reading this, that you had a wonderful festive period and are preparing for a lovely start to 2021. I can’t really say anything that other people haven’t already said about this year- it was strange, miserable, challenging and frustrating. Although I don’t think all of our problems are going to magically…
