We thought it was time for a fun new post every week. In the Royal Update one of us updates you about our personal life, bookish news, what we’re reading, watching and listening to and anything else that might apply to this post. We thought it would be fun to share a bit more about our personal lives and hope you think so too!

Show Sunday | New Fall 2021 Shows I’m Interested In
As you probably know by now, I’m always on the lookout for new tv-shows. Usually I do some research way in advance but this year I was very behind haha. I’m super busy and have a ton of shows to catch up with. But I still have a list of new fall shows I would love to try. So today I want to share 10 of them. I won’t talk about them that much because this post would be way too long if I did.

Review| Under the Whispering Door – TJ Klune
Ever since I read The House in the Cerulean Sea I’ve been anxiously awaiting for Under the Whispering Door by TJ Klune to release.

Keep on reading to find out more!

Bookish Item | Audio Dramas
I was debating what to call this bookish item for a while but I finally came across the term Audio Dramas. Another term I found was fiction podcasts. In short, it’s like listening to a tv show or to an audiobook with only dialogue and background noises. You listen to a podcast but it’s a fictional story. And I am hooked!! So today I wanted to talk about it! Continue reading “Bookish Item | Audio Dramas”
Review| Murder Most Actual – Alexis Hall
When the days get shorter and colder I love curling up with a good book. Mysteries seem to be calling to me most lately, so when I had a chance to sign up to read and review Murder Most Actual I just couldn’t resist. The cover was stunning and the book sounded like something I’d love. So today I want to tell you about the book and what I thought!
A big thanks to the author and Valentine PR for providing me with an e-arc on Netgalley to read and review.
Tag| Fall Book Tag
We’re almost halfway through November, so I thought I would do one last fall related book tag. It’s actually pretty fitting, because this one is called the Fall Book Tag. This tag was created by Shanah from The Bionic Book Worm. Let’s see what this tag is about!
Can’t Wait Wednesday| Bitter – Akwaeke Emezi
We wanted to do another bookish meme on Wednesday and after doing Can’t Wait Wednesday a few times we decided that would be a fun one to bring around more often! About twice a month you’ll see this meme on our blog.
Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.

Blog Tour| House Swap – Olivia Beirne
Contemporary books are always something I can’t resist, so it didn’t take me long to say yes to the blog tour for House Swap when the publisher emailed me. So today is my review of the book and before that I’ll tell you about this amazing story! Keep on reading to find out more!
TTT #210 | Memorable Things Characters Have Said
We have been having fun with Top Ten Tuesday, so we decided we will do one every week. This bookish meme was hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, and has been going since June 2010! Since January 2018 Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.
This week’s topic is Memorable Things Characters Have Said. And I love that! I love bookish quotes and most of them are things characters have said. So I’m just going to go with a bunch of my favourite quotes haha. Some of them are things characters thought instead of said but I’m very much okay with that. Let’s jump in!
