Hi everyone. Just wanted to update you all on my progress so far. I have been keeping up with my Fae reading goal and am currently on my third book of the year. The first month has been pretty rough with work, health issues, and I misplaced my USB drive, which has my draft for my post of "A Midsummer Night's Dream." As soon as I find it, I will post it ASAP. I am also working on finishing up my post for Holly Black's The Cruel Prince. Reading-wise, I am on the second book of Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black's The Spiderwick Chronicles and will write one large post for the whole series once I am finished. Just wanted to let you know that I have not forgotten about keeping up with my posts, I just need to find the proper time for it. I hope to get my first book review posted soon.
In the meanwhile, I thought I would do a non-fiction post to tide everyone over. I recently bought "The Faerie Handbook", which is a book compiled by the editors of Faerie Magazine. Faerie Magazine is classified as a women's culture magazine. Through their works on the magazine, they have compiled a lot of their articles and topics into this consolidated book and have expanded on many things. Firstly, look how pretty the cover and end papers are.
What I love most about this book is that beyond providing me with information about Fae literature and folklore, it also expands the Fae as a culture rather than just a mythical and literary creatures. This book contains wonderful topics, such as fashion, bathing, interior design, baking, and many others related to the Fae culture.
