#RSFave Book Review | The Shadow Princess — If you’re a Sawyer Bennett fan, do not sleep on her romantasy series!

hiatus. taking a break. // Not that this needed a hiatus. taking a break. //

Not that this needed a formal announcement of any kind, but we're gonna do it anyways. Postpartum after my third has been so different than my previous ones, add on moving to a whole different country. Things were just becoming a lot for me to get through while tackling all these new transitions especially solo parenting three.

Another thing that snuck up on me was postpartum depression. Dealing with something so foreign to me and not simply being able to just will things away has been a little hard. While things have been getting better, I'm taking everything one day at a time. I've started journaling when my mood brings me to it and eventually will seek out therapy.

A bit of a break is what I need as we try and settle in a bit more. And there's just so much for me to wrap my mind around, but haven't been able to.

DMs are forever open. I'm so thankful that I have had the mind space for reading granted it's at a much slower pace. I've got a couple new projects that I've been wanting to try and eventually I'll share it all.

Hope everyone's happy and healthy, and I'll see you when I see you 😊

Happy reading, friends 💗
& my mail is finally here. My parents have been c & my mail is finally here.

My parents have been collecting my mail until we got settled and here they are. Some subscription boxes, book hauls, and PR mail. Most of these will be added to the TBR cart ☺️

Thank you to the publishers and PR for the lovely bookmail 💗
/Japan content. I've been getting a hang of the t /Japan content.

I've been getting a hang of the trains here, we'll be using them plenty during our time here. I'll have to drive sometimes especially for errands, but the train/walking will be my go-to. However, I am not ready to drive...

Soooo, enjoy this little reel as me and the baby trek to meet up with the rest of the family.

🌸 It's so cute! I'm not a collector of Starbuc 🌸 It's so cute!

I'm not a collector of Starbucks things, but I couldn't pass on Sakura season mugs... And whatnot. Japan has the US beat on Starbucks stuff, that's all I got to say. I mean look at the packaging, I'm absolutely going to keep it for no reason except it's just pretty 💗

So yeah, be ready for some Japan content. 🌸
**I really don't hate myself. But I sure do love **I really don't hate myself.

But I sure do love those reads that make you hurt, but only to wrap up in the end with a happily ever after. Better not go through all the pain for nothing!
