2023 fantasy challenge update
  • babel (r.f. kuang), 5☆
particularly liked the etymology bits as a vital part of worldbuilding and narration
  • when the angels left the old country (sacha lamb), 5☆ *
the friendshipTM made me cry multiple times and the writing is simply delicious
  • the priory of the orange tree (samantha shannon), 5☆
re-read? more like treat! shannon just knows how to write fantasy
  • a day of fallen night (samantha shannon), 5☆
pure joy to dive back into the roots of chaos universe and meet new characters (I might even like this one more than priory). I'm gonna need to cuddle an ichneumon real soon please

* fyi, I only put this down as romance subplot bc i didn't know where else to put it for this challenge but I wanted to mention it because I Loved it so much and there is indeed a romance that is very much a subplot not a second plot or anything. the focus is very much on friendship, what makes a home, standing up for yourself and an angel and a demon being awesome

This issue has a lot of things that were known to me, but with a mind-bending twists.

THE STUDYBLR WITH KNIVES SERVER PRESENTS: *✧ 2023 Jumbo Reading Challenge ✧*

a brand new year is upon us, so what better way to celebrate than with a fresh reading challenge! this year we decided to fill the gap between our thematic challenges with our biggest challenge yet - this 25 prompt challenge will last from january to the end of december and has 5 bonus prompts to make things a bit easier. most of the prompts are also quite broad, so they encourage you to diversify your reading without being too restricting and sucking all the fun out of reading :)

RULES: -> please reblog this post if you’re participating -> for each of the prompts, read a book of your choice and cross the prompt out on the above template -> post your updates in the form of text posts, bookish photos, or anything else you come up with under the tag #studyblr w/knives reading challenge! -> the jumbo challenge will last the entire year, but as always, feel free to take however long to complete it

! be sure to hide any spoilers under the cut when posting updates/reviews, so people can avoid them if needed :)

good morning! i usually prefer handwritten notes but it is not just feasible when i journal before or after duty when i have a million things to say because every duty as a JI doctor is a battle won in the PH, so i downloaded day one and the stoic app to try which suits me better.

so far i’m leaning on the stoic app! there are a loooot of prompts and i’m just obsessed with the trends where they track and make graphs of my mood/sleep/etc. you know how type As are with graphs!! craaazy. the stoic prompts / processing of emotions are one less thing to worry about it.

i just downloaded both and i’ll try them for a week of trial, to see which suits me best.

The Summer Reading Challenge 2.0 catch up! Three more books done.

Released in the last six months: Me VS Brain by Hayley Morris

By an author of colour: The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang

Anti-hero or chosen one: The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde

It’s been a long two weeks and I’ve been slow with my reading. Though I really enjoyed all the books. Me VS Brain was a mixture of super funny and a little sad, which made it perfect. The Kiss Quotient wasn’t at all what I expected but in the best way. It had me hooked and if it wasn’t for work I would have finished it a lot quicker. And finally Dorian Gray. I wasn’t sure if this really fits for Antihero but google said so, and it’s been on my tbr for years, making it one I really wanted to tackle. There were beautiful moments in it and other times it took a lot to keep going. But generally a good read. I’ve also just started the first of the Percy Jackson books as the next book.

I hope everyone’s reading summer is going well ☀️ Happy reading 😊
