Fantasy Northern Lights by Phillip Pullman I got curious because His Darkest Materials was the title for the lesson on research for the novel writing course that I did with the University of British Columbia up on the edX platform. As I was reading it, it reminds me a little of one movie that IContinue reading “Moonlake’s Book Discoveries: September 2024”

Moonlake’s Book Discoveries: March 2024
Mystery The Mercenaries: Blood Diamonds by P. W. Storm It’s a complete mystery to me why this is filed under fantasy on my local library catalogue and this is the ebook catalogue nonetheless.

But I think a younger me probably did enjoy how whimsical the whole trilogy is (it does contain dark themesContinue reading “Moonlake’s Book Discoveries: June 2023”
Moonlake and Historical fiction
So historical fiction is my third genre but it is often solely neglected because: 1) I just haven’t really found a comfort author to stick to and for the majority of my life, I have been sticking to comfort authors; 2) I don’t have a personal interest in history so much. Rather, I feel historyContinue reading “Moonlake and Historical fiction”
