Dream Crate: Strong Female Characters

OK so a couple of weeks ago, I found that Loot Crate was looking for people to make their own "Dream Crate." It is fair to say I freaked out at this email as I have been watching Loot Crate unboxings for a long time but have never got one of their crates so the fact that I could make my own is pretty amazing. If you don't know what Loot Crate is, it is a monthly subscription service that contains pop culture items based on a specific theme, you can find more information at lootcrate.com. The theme that I choose for my box is Strong Female Characters. So let's get started...


1. A Marvel Comics Pop Funko 

Loot Crate normally has some kind of figure in their boxes so for mine, I choose the 3 heroines of Spider-Gwen, Captain Marvel and She-Hulk. I thought that these would be a nice addition to the box because as all three of them can kick ass and I really enjoying reading the comics. 


2. A Star Wars based pin

So again like the Pop Funkos, loot crate normally includes a pin in their boxes and I thought that it would be good to make this Star Wars themed. I did try to find a Rey pin on its own but this was as close as I came to find one. But again Rey is just a good character.

3. This t-shirt

For this one, I just chose it because I liked the quote and also T-shirts are normally included in the Loot Crate box.

4. A Clockwork Princess Necklace




So even though I need a new one of these necklaces myself, I think that it is a nice necklace and Tessa is a pretty cool strong female character.

5. A Hunger Games based print

OK so this one is based on Katniss who is a pretty strong individual and this is just a really nice print and I am pretty sure that I will buy it for myself so...


6. Hermione Granger wand pen



Again Hermione is a great character and I just liked the wand pen so it can be included in the Dream Crate. 

7. First issue of Paper Girls comic


I really enjoy reading this comic and considering how young the girls are in the comic, they are pretty cool characters and it explores female friendship which is always a good thing. 

8. A Game of Thrones keyring

Although I am not a massive Game of Thrones as I haven't read the books or watched the TV series loads, while I was browsing Etsy, I discovered this keyring which is so nice. It is a quote by Arya Stark who I believe is a good character so...

OK, so that is my Dream Crate box. I have to admit that this box would probably not appeal to most people who buy Loot Crate but I feel as though it is a nice box and would probably be better for a YA book subscription service but I like it so...

What would you put in your Dream Crate box? Leave them in the comments below. 

See you soon,

My Reading Tastes Are Changing

For the last couple of years, I feel like this has become a reoccurring blog post but I want to talk about it now because I think something is actually happening in my reading life. My reading tastes are changing. I've felt it for a while. I haven't really been drawn to YA titles that much anymore especially contemporary. Being busy in my time, I have been really selective in the books that I pick up so for me: the shorter, the better. And when picking up shorter books, the less likely they are to be YA. The more I am exposed to more books, the more I get to read books that I connect to Some of the books that I have picked up have really surprised me because of how much I ended up enjoying them. I think as I grow older, I am looking for different stories, different experiences and different perspectives. These don't just fit the YA mould. I also have been really into different genres like horror and the occasional thriller which have not read from before and I'm interes

Favourite Graphic Novels & Manga of 2021

As I have read a lot of books this year, I always want to give graphic novels and manga their own celebration as they often get overlooked and do make up a lot of my reading. I also find that even though I read a lot of them, it takes a lot to convince me and make it a new favourite. So here are my best... Heartstopper Volume 4 by Alice Oseman  Like everyone on the internet, I too am a massive Heartstopper fan and Volume 4 is no different. I love the relationship of Nick and Charlie and the side characters also make the series. This one also explores the way that mental health can impact romance and it still does justice to the story and does not fall into cliches. I am eagerly anticipating the final volume but I don't want it to be over.  The Impending Blindness of Billie Scott by Zoe Thorogood One of the last graphic novels I read this year and the one that has the second amount of hype, The Impending Blindness of Billie Scott also leaves a lasting impression. I love a good Briti

Book Review: The Great Godden by Meg Rossoff

All thoughts are my own. * Title: The Great Godden  Author: Meg Rossoff Publisher: Bloomsbury  Source: NetGalley ( Bookshop UK |  Hive |  Goodreads  |  Storygraph ) Book Summary: Everyone talks about falling in love like it’s the most miraculous, life-changing thing in the world. Something happens, they say, and you know … That’s what happened when I met Kit Godden. I looked into his eyes and I knew. Only everyone else knew too. Everyone else felt exactly the same way. This is the story of one family, one dreamy summer – the summer when everything changes. In a holiday house by the sea, our watchful narrator sees everything, including many things they shouldn’t, as their brother and sisters, parents and older cousins fill hot days with wine and games and planning a wedding.
