Hollywood Fame is heading to the most magical place on earth!

Pack your bags for Walt Disney World, a place where dreams come true and a little pixie dust goes a long way! We will be staying at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge, which features exotic animals, dazzling pools, award-winning dining, and more. Who knows? You may even meet a new friend right outside your window! Under the cut, you will find the roommates list for the trip. The roommates were arranged by a RANDOM generator. Unless we got a message from you telling us you wanted to be with a specific person or your FC was listed on the ships list, you were included in the generator.  As we get more people into the roleplay, we will update the list. If you do not see your characters name on this list, please message us POLITELY and let us know! Mistakes happen, and the generator isn't perfect. Hopefully, everyone is accounted for - if not, we’ll fix it! As stated before, as we accept new apps before AND during the event, this list will be updated. This is also applicable if FCs are unfollowed/leave the group, so please understand that this list is subject to change. So, that being said - please LIKE THIS POST so you can not only keep track of this list but also so we know you saw this notice.

2022 Wrapped (Reading Edition)

I wasn't tagged by anyone because I'm a sad loner with no booklr friends lmao

But I wanted to reflect on my reading year regardless so I am just going to answer these questions bc nobody can stop me and 2023 is the year of fuck it, we ball!

Here we gooooo

Did you reach your reading goal for the year (if you had one)?

It was the first year ever since I started setting reading goals that I DIDN'T reach my goal. #sad

I set my goal at 50 books and only managed to read 41. But when it became obvious that I was going to fail, I made a downward adjustment to 40 books, so in that sense I did reach my goal? But only through cheating so not sure it counts.

(I blame podcasts btw. I used to go through so many audiobooks and now I am obsessed with "Today in Focus" among others and this audio content has reduced the time I listen to audiobooks to a dramatic extent)

What are your top 3 books you read this year?

Notes on an Execution (Danya Kukafka)

The It Girl (Ruth Ware)

Bunny (Mona Awad)

(It was tough, though. Honourable mentions include They Never Learn by Layne Fargo, S.T.A.G.S 3 and 4 by M. A. Bennett, The Push by Ashley Audrain, A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee, True Crime Story by Joseph Know and Writers & Lovers by Lily King. Man, so many good ones!)

What’s a book that you didn’t expect to enjoy quite so much going in?

The Little Sister (Raymond Chandler)

Were there any books that didn’t live up to your expectations?

Honestly... Greywaren by Maggie Stiefvater, a bit. Though it was alright.

Did you reread any old faves? If so, which one was your favourite? Omg, yes!

The Secret Place, The Trespasser and In the Woods by Tana French. Loved all three rereads! Probably loved In the Woods the most. Rob, Cassie and Sam, my beloved! <3

Did you dnf any books?

Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid. :/

Also All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr.

Did you read any books outside your usual preferred genre(s)?

Perhaps And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie because I very rarely read classics.

What was your predominant format this year?

Paper books, I believe...

What’s the longest book you read this year?

The Trespasser (Tana French)

What are your top 3 anticipated 2022 releases?

Oh gosh, this has got to be one of the first years where I can't think of many? Oh hey, I just looked up the sequel to Ninth House and found out that it's called Hell Bent and is supposed to come out in 8 days. So that one! Yay!

What books from your tbr did you not get to this year, but are excited to read in 2022?

Among others:

Hell Bent (Leigh Bardugo)

Ace of Spades (Faridah Abike-Iyimide)

Other People's Clothes (Calla Henkel)

The Initial Insult (Mindy McGinnis)

Tagging every other booklr loser with no friends! Just do this 2022 wrap-up, you don't need anybody else's permission, not even mine! ;)

    In 1666 an English duchess received a psychic visitation.  Her contact identified herself as an immigrant in an incredible frontier, a Blazing World which she had discovered while lost at sea, where she was now worshipped as an Empress by fantastic beings.  The Duchess eagerly documented the exploits of her amazing new friend, hoping to enlighten civilization and memorialize their achievements as cosmic pioneers.     However, her writings were quickly dismissed as fantasy.  Nothing  could persuade a patriarchal society, especially when seasoned adventurers were unable to replicate any such expedition.  The suggestion that women might be more inclined to inter-dimensional travel than men was deemed laughable at best, and the Duchess ultimately decided that Earth’s authorities were too close-minded to truly grasp the implications of alternate reality, and far too materialistic to  trust with the dangerous temptation of limitless resources.     Thus, on the advice of her friend the Empress, the Duchess founded an institution to find, assist, accommodate, and commemorate any and all lady explorers who may, either by intention or by accident, manage to  slip the bonds of Earth and touch alien ground.  Their project grew in secret, and to this day the Persephone Society continues to seek out new members, joining under the roof of the traveling Newcastle to map and safeguard the invisible countries which surround our narrow perception….

SURPRISE!  Didja have a happy Independence Day?  Bet you didn’t think  you’d hear from me again so soon, given my usual rate of posting!     Well, this set-up is a very roughly finished side project that I’ve  been toying with for a year or so, sort of a League of Extraordinary  Gentlemen for movies, TV shows, and cartoons in a particular genre.  It struck me that there are a whole lot of stories about young women going to other dimensions!  Especially lately, as great shows like Infinity Train, Amphibia, Twelve Forever, and The Owl House have brought the “isekai”  heroine into vogue in modern western animation.    The premise  is classically embodied by the holy trinity of Wendy Darling (from Peter  Pan, by J.M. Barrie), Alice Liddell (Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland,  by Lewis Carroll), and Dorothy Gale (The Wizard of Oz, by L. Frank  Baum).  Tied together by their shared traits of youth and otherworldly adventure, it’s not uncommon for the three heroines to meet up in a  shared universe setting.  I wanted to build on that, and after some research I found out that one of the earliest applicable examples of the theme is considered by some to be the very first science-fiction novel ever written!    Published in 1666 by Margaret Cavendish (Duchess of Newcastle and all-around renaissance woman), The Blazing World tells  the story of a nameless young lady who crosses from the North Pole to another whole universe.  The first isekai heroine!  Though the writing  style is difficult to penetrate and it never received any great amount  of critical praise or recognition (it’s pretty clearly a self-insert  story and the heroine is arguably the first “Mary Sue” to boot), I think  it’s fair to say that it’s a seminal work which took the first steps  into modern fantasy as we know it, and it surprises me that it hasn’t  garnered more attention.    Anyway!  I doubt that I’m going to devote much more work to this, but if anyone has any questions (or even wants to contribute to the project), then have at it.  I originally  started writing expanded histories for the current members, how they  work together as members of this special club, and especially what’s  happened to some of the older members since their respective TV shows or  movies ended.    For example, Dr. Susan Who is based on actress  Roberta Tovey, who appeared in the 1965-66 Dr. Who films which starred Peter Cushing as a version of the British icon.  I originally  thought about incorporating the main canon of the TV series, but that would’ve gotten WAY too crowded!  Adapting the obscure movie continuity  made much, much more sense.  Here Susan has long since taken up her grandfather’s title as “Dr. Who”, maintaining and upgrading his Tardis and the scientific resources of the society, including an all-purpose  tool which she jokingly calls her “sonic screw-driver”.  I could go on like this about most of them!  If you're  curious about anyone, just ask.    As for the four kids in the middle, Tulip, Anne, Reggie, and Luz, I roughly guessed what they might  look like after they survive their own adventures and are inducted into the Society as its youngest members.  What actually becomes of them will almost certainly be different, but that’s the nature of fan fiction.   They’re sort of the main characters in my conception, but now I’m  talking too much.  I only wanted to get this off my chest!  Hey, just take it where you want it.    I’ll provide explanation or links to any unfamiliar characters mentioned that you might have trouble tracking down, like Sasha Prince (some last names were extrapolated from actors or authors).  Some of these are pretty obscure, and I surely have overlooked many potential members elsewhere in the ocean of pop culture.  For the most part, I kinda hope you find them on your own!  That’s half the fun, right?     I made it a rule to omit comics and video games as sources, because a  shared universe can take only so much before it buckles.  And I gotta be just a little economical or I’d never be able to stop!  Though adaptations are fair game so long as the starting point of the heroine’s  journey is a baseline “Earth” similar in perceived mundanity to our own.

A moving story by Victoria Leigh Bennett

CW: This story starts out with a child who tries to “pass,” as many children do when young, in naïve admiration for some other ethnic group than their own, based on odd and sometimes quizzical preferences. But here, as I hope you will find, the attraction is mutual; the kinship of all is the goal, and I hope the “moral.”                                                                 It’s in the…

Sophie’s Exhaustive Dark Academia List

For a while now, since my dark academia rec list was such an unexpected success, I’ve wanted to create a list of all the dark academia books I’m personally aware of, regardless of whether I have already read them, as sort of a resource for the community. I have now done just that!

The titles in bold are the ones I have read. The ones I would especially recommend (which, okay, yeah, are almost all of the ones I’ve read) are in bold and italics. Note that this doesn’t mean I loved absolutely everything about the recommended book, just that I think it was good or worth reading overall. 

If anybody is aware of a dark academia read that didn’t make the list, please leave a comment and I’ll update the list! Thank you! And thank you to everyone who has already recommended titles to me, helping me compile this list! :)

Also, just to be clear: My personal definition of dark academia would be a story that is set at a school or university or focuses heavily on academia otherwise (maybe the characters are in a secret book or debate club, discuss academic topics, something like that) and in which something bad or dark happens. This could be a crime (violent or non-violent), an accidental death, something supernatural going on... Note: Some of the books on the list (meaning of those I haven’t read) might only fit a looser definition of dark academia, e.g. maybe they have a dark subject matter and include some intellectual elements, even if the setting isn’t actually an academic institution. 

And now, without further ado, enjoy!! As I said, I hope this will be a good resource for the dark academia community! And I want to update this list regularly so that it’s as exhaustive as possible! :)

It’s really annoying to switch accounts for a book blog, and since it’s not serious maybe I’ll just post stuff here since I kind of do everything here anyway? I don’t know, but I did want to share all the books I got this month anyway! The list is kind of long (one book for every day of the month, whoops) and it’s under the cut!

A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas (gifted)

The Cruel Prince by Holly Black (gifted)

The Wicked King by Holly Black (gifted)

The ACOTAR copy and TFOTA were gifts from @vino-amore. My sets of the books aren’t complete yet and I’m hopefully going to order those at Christmas when my family gives me gift cards for Amazon. 

I’ve read a couple of these so far, and I was really sad when a couple of them really didn’t live up to what I wanted.
