Barbarian's Beloved by Ruby Dixon

I really liked this, as someone how struggles with anxiety, I could relate a lot to this, and I just found this book so relatable, and also so freaking cute. I love how good the Alien handle it even tho he didn't really understand it at the beginning but just was there to listen and learn.

I really loved that. It just shows you don't have to do the maximum to make a person with mental health hear, and I loved that. It's the small thing that counts. This was one of my favorites from this series. I love this book so much, how it managed to take a hard subject into a si-fi, and not making it too heave was wonderful, and beautifully done.

Recommendation: Hell fucking YES! Aliens, mental health, and love? what is there not to love?

Genre: Si-Fi, Mental Health, Romance, Fantasy & Erotic

The Bromance Book Club by Lyssa Kay Adams

I didn't think I would like this book. I end up liking it, loving it and adore it. I hate Liz, did not like her, I thought she was annoyed as hell. I did love the character development for both Thea and George, and I really loved how they face the truth.

I love how it was a book about marriage struggle cause often we only read about books where the single and then get marry and liv happy after all, but this was such a more realistic scene, and chapter that could happen for anyone, and I loved that. I also liked that it was men how to read those romance books and who talk about those things cause they realized how that can help learn.

Overall I really liked this book, cause I loved how everyone grew and realized their mistake. Realized that it takes two to tango, and not all the fault was either his or hers, but they both were wrong at some point.

Recommendation: Yes, pick it up if you want a fresh view on love.

Genre: Contemporary & Romance

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone By J.K Rowling

I read this for the first time, which was weird since I saw the movie when it came out, and I have read all the other books in this series. I never realized until I started reading it, that I never actually read the first book in this series, so that was fun, and it bought a lot of childhood memories.

I liked this book, of course, I found Hermonie to be a bit annoying, but I think that was the point, and I forgot how annoyed Harry's uncle was, and how Dumbolre just really wasn't there as much as I thought he was. He was a bit useless.

I did find the book a bit magical the way the explain the room in Hogwarts and it really has a way to make you feel like you are there with Harry Potter. I love how well things explained because Harry also didn't understand the world, so we were just there with him getting all the information as he did. It made it a bit more magical like you are a part of this world. I love of course the season Halloween and Christmas those were so cozy. I really really really liked this book. It really gave me a cozy vibe and feelings, and remind me a lot of my childhood. I loved it.

Recommendation: I recommend it if you like a book about a magical world and friendship and getting to know this world

Genre: Fantasy, Friendship, Middle grade, &Magic

This book was so fun, I laugh a lot. Veronica and Asthar were such fun. I loved their dynamic from the first page. I really don't have much to says about this then I love it. It made me smile a lot, and laugh a lot. There were different a lot of fun moments in this book.

Recommendation: Yes. If you want something light, and fun, and about dragon and alien, then yes pick it up.

Genre: Si-Fi, Fantasy & Romance

I had a bit trouble about this challenge because if you read my preview post, I mention I can't read on my mother language, I understand it, but I can speak it, read, or write it. So this challenge made me uncomfortable... But you only grow when you are uncomfortable right? I asked my sisters if they knew anything and of course, they know even less then me. So my little sister says "Google it", cause I'm curious too. So I end up google it and finding some and actually it ends being funny and I shared it with my sister and we end up having a but fun doing it. I'm gonna shared my 5 favorites in random order, and I wanna be 100% honestly since I can't Kinyarwanda, so I google translate it all. What you are reading is a google translate so good luck with that. You are welcome to come to your own meaning of it, cause my sister and I had some discussion about some of them, and I thought that was a bit interested in how we each understood it differently. So If you wanna comment/shared how you understand them, I will love to read it.

Which Brand would I love to work with and represent? When I first saw it I thought it was focused on my blog, and I was honestly a bit confused cause I started blogging as a hobby, I haven't seen a black girl in Denmark earning money from it. But then I got on my laptop yesterday and started reading all the other blogs from the #WinterABC, to see what people have written. I was inspired, people were writing anything from food brands to clothes, to watch, to an organisation, and one even wrote about a law firm. I realized that this question can mean so much more, and I shouldn't limit myself by thinking that just because I haven't seen a black girl earn or have any brand-deal doesn't mean it can't happen. My blog is on English, so my opportunity is endless. I not just limited to brands in Denmark, and I shouldn't limit myself just because I don't see it around me. There is always a first for something. I shouldn't be the one to close the door for myself and not even allow myself to dream. I remember a long time ago, I read somewhere, "Don't be the first one to say no to yourself". So I'm gonna try to reprogram my mind to say yes more.

When I saw the word "Brand", my mind went on "influencer", and I don't really see myself like that, so the idea of brands makes me uncomfortable, cause I related it too, make-up, fashion, etc, and I don't see myself like that since I see myself as a lifestyle blogger, but then again that is just limited myself again. I started asking myself what or who would I love to work with?

My goals have always been to create a community where diverse people can get inspired by each other, and help each other and grow together. where ALL diversity people feel inclusive,. So I wanna work with people that already have a platform like that, so I can learn from them, or be a part of it. I myself have some idea for challenges that I wanna do in the future, but I rather learn from other before, and I really would like to be a part of other platforms before starting my own. I don't have a response right now to you, it is a question I wanna think about and try to work myself too. It is a response that requires me to think about what my future with this blog is, and what my goals can be, so I need a little more time to find my responses before I can give it to you.
