My Thoughts While Reading Furyborn (The Empirium Trilogy #1) by Claire Legrand

I finally got past my book burn-out that From Blood and Ash series had left me with. That is the longest burn-out I’ve had in a while. Furyborn is the first in The Empirium Trilogy by Claire Legrand. I shall it come up on TikTok quite a few times as recommended with little to no details. The only thing going into the book that I knew was a comparison to Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo. Though different in a way that The Empirium Triology is more in depth and thought out in a way.

February 2021 Goals

One month has already passed of 2021, and honestly it’s been long and short at the same time. Which seems very weird. So, I thought I’d go over my goals for this month and revisit the ones I made for the previous month. Since there’s still no way I’m going to make overall year goals.

The Dregs from Six of Crows Inspired Tarot Cards

Now these aren’t tarot cards completely but are inspired by that style with artwork over a specific name. I’m excited for Grishaverse to become a Netflix show though I’m still insanely curious how they are going to blend Six of Crows in with Shadow and Bone since the events happen at different times by years. And yet in the show they are going to be blended. Anyways, here are the Dregs (six main characters) from Six of Crows.

Art Diary: Zodiac Signs

Honestly, I have no idea how to title this post so we’re going with art diary. I thought I would share some of my artwork on my blog, I am still getting used to sharing my work with others rather than just saving it to my computer and calling it a day. I’m still learning the medium in drawing things more realistic. Most of my favorite things I’ve done since getting a tablet have been emotes for Twitch. So, the first one I’m sharing here is a series I did of the Zodiac signs complete with their mascot, star sign, and symbol.

Thoughts and Theories on The Crown of Gilded Bones

I swore I was going to put down From Blood and Ash series for a while and read something else, but I haven’t. It’s all I’ve read this month a few times over. Including the first chapter that Jennifer L. Armentrout started on her website of The Crown of Gilded Bones, which doesn’t come out until April 20, 2021. Similiar to how I shared my thoughts and theories on what’s coming up for A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J. Maas, I thought I would do the same with this book.

Looking Back at What I Read in 2020

2020 was a tough year for a lot of us. I know I already talked a bit about this in my Happy New Year and Goals for January 2021 posts, but I thought I would make a dedicated post for going over the books that I read last year and if any of my thoughts have changed in regards to them. Since this last year really got me back into reading, as before other than Shadowhunters Chronicles which was the majority of my reading in 2019 I pretty much never read. But in 2020, I read at least six to eight books a month. If not, more as I often end up reading several books multiple times or re-reading various chapters repeatedly.
