The Doorway~

A door is a portal to another world, another room or even another dimension...once you step through, you're in a world that calls to your very being. Or, you've just happened upon this website through your endless social network browsing. Both of them are pretty good deals (if I do say so myself). This website...

Books & TV: Top Ten Tuesdays [Wyrd & Wonder Day 30]

I'm back with another Top Ten Tuesday, the last of Wyrd & Wonder 2023! Time really does fly 0.0 but the last prompt is all about magical typography. Typography can make or break the cover of a book and when you're in the world of fantasy there's much to be played with. So for today,...

TV Shows & Movies: Movie Mondays [Wyrd & Wonder 2023 Day 29]

Day 29 of Wyrd & Wonder is all about Destiny and Fate and when I thought of this, I immediately thought of Lord of the Rings because that classic heroes' journey is all about fate and destiny. But books I've spoken of aplenty over the past month so I figured I should delve a little...

And toe of frog! Magic can exist in many places, but one of the most magical places is the kitchen. Transforming raw ingredients into a delicious meal is magic in and of itself. For day 28 of Wyrd & Wonder, let me tell you about some Fantasy cooking. Magical ingredients and some of the most...

Books & TV: Saturday Stories [Wyrd & Wonder 2023 Day 27]

The theme for day 27 is #Saturdaystacks and while I would love to show off my books, I don't have a lot. A couple years ago, I moved to the UK leaving behind a library that had over 600 books I had been collecting and reading since I was as young as 6 years old....

Book: First Line Fridays [Wyrd & Wonder 2023 Day 26]

I found this tag through _ForBooksSake and had wanted to start it out and this seemed like the perfect opportunity. The tag is originally from Wandering Words though. The concept simply put is; what if instead of judging a book by its cover, its author, or its prestige, we judged it by its opening lines? Pick a book off your...

Books: TBR Thursday – Magical Items [Wyrd & Wonder 2023 Day 25]

This Thursday is all about magical items – and I am stuck. There are beautiful stories I have read with magical items of so many types: compasses; clothing; tools; weapons and armour. And it's hardly restricted to books. TV Shows, movies, TTRPGs, in fact, most forms of media I consume have magical items of some...

Books: Waiting on Wednesday [Wyrd & Wonder 2023 Day 24]

A weekly post started by Jill over at Breaking the Spine! Playing around a little with the daily prompts, for Day 24 of Wyrd and Wonder, I'm going to make up for the switched prompt from day 21! The prompt was all about favourite magical casters and while I could list more than a few, I...

Books & TV: Top Ten Tuesdays [Wyrd & Wonder 2023 Day 23]

A tag that was originally started by The Broke and The Bookish, now taken over by That Artsy Reader, Top Ten Tuesdays is a list of 10 books that go along with any prompt you chose for that week! The Artsy Reader posts their prompts and you are free to either take inspiration from those...

Books & Shows: Magical Communities [Wyrd & Wonder 2023 Day 22]

Day 22 of Wyrd & Wonder is all about Magical Communities and I had to think long and hard about it because stories of friends and heroes are aplenty, but communities? That gave me a pause. So after careful consideration, I have come up with a few of the stories that have magical communities that...
