Title: 어느 날 공주가 되어버렸다 3



Author: Plutus



Where to buy: Kyobobook
This book showed us more about the relationship with the characters and we finally get to know Jeanette. 

Honestly I really liked how the characters developed, how Claude was from mean to becoming a protective father and taking care that Athanasia always feels welcomed and on ease. Ijekiel was still that cute boy who we got to know was in love with Athanasia from the beginning and never stopped thinking about her and always went back to the place he first met her. He also showed her his secret hide place where he goes when he wants to be alone, showing that he always welcomes Athansias presence. Not sure what to think about her relationship with Lucas as I know that he is mentally and physically older than her. Just feels wrong, so I rather preferred if he didn't become more protective and caring of her. Also I think he was jealous of her relationship with Ijekiel who was in my opinion a better fit regarding the age. 

I also think it was interesting to get to know Athanasia better and her admitting that she did create a bond with her father and didn't only acted all the time. That made me also feel a bit sad as she was an orphan in her previous life and as she said herself; She never had a father before. Very touching. Seeing that even though she is supposed to be the unlucky one in the story still having such a good life and feeling happy.

Also, that makes me feel regarding the thing above that perhaps this story is the other way around. That the thing Athanasia thinks to relife like the book she read is completely the opposite. Athanasia is the main lead and wins Claude over while Jeanette won't live anymore when she turns 18. Would be an interesting plot twist, just I hope it isn't as it wouldn't be such a surprise for me anymore.

(I also loved the Alice In Wonderland reference)

How it works: Only everything that is lower than 9 gets reduced from the final rating. Depending on how strong it inflicted the overall enjoyment of reading it effects differently.

Review: Classroom of the Elite (Light Novel) Vol. 11.5

Classroom of the Elite (Light Novel) Vol. 11.5 by Syougo Kinugasa My rating: 3 of 5 stars The first year is since the last volume coming to an end, but with this extra volume we get some more moments before the school semester ends. I'm personally very excited to read about the year 2 book series as the anime wasn't able to adopt them yet so this would be a new experience for me now too. Some scenes in this volume were (as far as I remember) not adapted into the anime, so it felt very odd reading them and slowly realising that I experience them for the first time. Though it's an extra volume I saw myself drawn to the whole Tsukishiro incident that continued in this volume. Sakayanagi was also seen for a certain chapter so I definitely feel satisfied with ending this book like this. Another thing I liked to see once more which was confirmed now finally is that Horikita did indeed have a great character development and that from this volume...

Book information Title: The Six Deaths Of The Saint Author: Alix E. Harrow Where to buy:  Amazon . This review includes spoilers, read at your own risk. “Well, she is my Devil now.” In a thousand years and a thousand after that, they will still sing of the Prince and his Devil. Your body fighting battles you’d already won or hadn’t yet fought. “My Devil,” he said, and there was nothing you would not do for him when he spoke in this voice: fond, fatherly, full of love. You understood, finally, that there had never truly been a she or a you but only a terrible, lonely I. “I would rather love a coward than mourn a legend.” I wanted so badly to be beloved. But only one person in all my lives has ever loved me, and he does not wear a crown. Likes: Tragic past of the main character makes them more human than anyone in the story thought she was. Also, the little detail with the red hair and the century (witches) was awesome. Everyone thought she was a devil 'cause of her red hair (and her...

Review: The Way It Is

The Way It Is by Shirani Rajapakse My rating: 4 of 5 stars *I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.* The Book ‘The Way It Is’, is about a poetry collection ranging from politics and racism to war and death. Even though the poems don't rhyme most of the time, it still has a great flow while reading. I really liked about this book how wide ranging the topics were in it. After reading about war, I was reading about how woman dress and misogyny and then after that about slavery. Poems express so much more than outspoken words ever can and Shirani Rajapakse kept me intrigued with her poetry collection till the end. While reading I felt that these poems felt extremely personal and heartbreaking for me. The way the words were chosen for each poem, made me feel heard and understood, as I express the same feelings to certain topics that were covered in this collection. The poems were also not overly complicate...
