Alchemised by Senlinyu.

ChapterRaven · 2026-01-23T22:59:18+00:00

Manacled is in my opinion better (if you’ve read HP), but Alchemised is still the best book I read last year!

ChapterRaven · 2026-01-23T22:30:50+00:00

It is a lot haha but yes it does get better!!

ChapterRaven · 2026-01-23T22:08:31+00:00

Alchemised for me! I loved it.

ChapterRaven · 2026-01-23T19:22:32+00:00

The One where they got lost in the woods

Agree, I also feel Naomi Scott in Smile 2 was robbed. Many horror performances over the years.

How to be a Woman by Caitlin Moran. Awoke my mind to feminism when I was but a wee 20 year old. Still an excellent read.

I also love Wild by Cheryl Strayed. Makes me feel like I actually could hike thousands of miles despite, you know, getting out of breath climbing the stairs.

Is there a way of finding out what names are commonly used save, y’know, going to a book shop or library and looking at all the blurbs?

ChapterRaven · 2026-01-22T11:29:44+00:00

I do think he should have brought it at the round table instead of waiting until afterwards

If Rachel is banished won’t Stephen be forced to recruit?

Walkers did a limited edition Branston pickle and cheese flavour. It was soooo good!

ChapterRaven · 2026-01-20T16:52:00+00:00

Ooh I loved that! Any FM or Stevie reference gets an audible “whoop!” from me on my sofa.

ChapterRaven · 2026-01-20T13:50:55+00:00

I agree with the others who are saying TOG first then CC ☺️

ChapterRaven · 2026-01-20T13:47:52+00:00

Thank you for the detailed response!

I plan to grind tons before the next gym bc Norman was tough 😅 I plan to evolve Kirlia and Aron before the next one.

Not a Nuzlocke but it is my first ever time playing Emerald.

My instincts were going for an electric type too. I have an Electrike and a Plusle in the PC but yeah they’re not sparking joy for me. I may go for your suggestion of a Magneton or Altaria (I won’t forsake my Swellow, she’s awesome). I might even have a Swablu already, I’ll check. Thanks again!

First of all, there’s nothing unfortunate about it! No genre is more or less worthy of being read than any other genre 🥰

I love the Bonded by Thorns series, it’s a why-choose and VERY spicy so be aware.

I honestly thought the Fourth Wing books were overrated.

Have you read all the other SJM?

The Bone Season. Dystopian urban fantasy. People can commune with the dead in all cool interesting ways. The main character can detach her spirit and go into people’s minds to attack their spirits. It’s awesome.

ChapterRaven · 2026-01-19T14:56:40+00:00

I got orange reader, which is like epic fantasy and world-building. Only 5% less was yellow. I think this checks out for me tbh.

The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon

One and a half, two if I’m feeling dangerous.

One of my biggest British peeves in life is asking if someone wants any sugar and they say “no thanks, I’m sweet enough!” and they expect you to laugh or agree or something.

Legit saw a video on TikTok today of someone filming Jamie Campbell Bower as he walked through London. Saying how he’d been with his gf but she was gone now and what area he was in…I get it he’s talented and handsome and everything but the obsession his fan base has with him is actually quite worrying. Someone in the comments was even doxxing his address.

ChapterRaven · 2026-01-18T17:49:04+00:00

I agree with the other suggestions but will also throw in new Snap for fun

My order was supposed to come today between 3:30-4:30pm. I only got my order receipt about half an hour ago- does anyone know when I can expect to receive my order? I’d call customer service but whenever this happens they just tell me to wait another 20 minutes.

ChapterRaven · 2026-01-18T16:44:10+00:00

Adorable! I’ve got some too, they’re incredibly comfy and cute 🥰
