Blood Lust follows a vampire and human couple who live with their pet werewolf, Vincent. The human, Benigo, is dying which means that if Sangue (the vampire) doesn't want to wait for him to reincarnate and then grow up and start to remember him again (this has happened before), he needs to turn him into a vampire so they can be together. The trouble is, Benigo might not remember him or their love, but that's a risk Sangue is willing to take. However, the ritual doesn't work and Benigo heals instead of turning. Perplexed, Sangue goes searching for answers and learns that if someone isn't willing to die they won't turn. This gives Benigo an idea about using vampire blood to heal an epidemic that is currently plaguing the gay community, and Sangue goes along with it because he's the type that would do anything for the man he loves.

Graphic Novel Recommendations 1

I've been really enjoying reading graphic novels! They're so cute, fun and emotion-evoking. I'm loving reading them on Kindle where they are available. I wanted to share some that I've read and want everyone to check out!

The Sad Ghost Club

 

Volume 1 was on sale so I thought I'd check it out and oh wow was I surprised! The Sad Ghost Club follows characters who suffer with their mental health, they meet and talk about life and things. It feels like such an authentic portrayal of living with mental illness, it's so relatable and lovely. I immediately read and adored the next two books in the series and I can't wait for volume 4! These are absolute must-reads!

My Current Goals

Hello!

• My main general goal is to adopt a more positive mindset rather than an anxious one.

Reading:

• Genres I'm feeling more pulled towards right now: sweet fantasy/paranormal romance and manga
• I recently made a list of all of the Kindle books I have (including mostly indie books) and I plan to hopefully steadily go through these.
• Manga I'm reading/are on my radar: Spy x Family, One Piece, Fairy Tail, Hunter x Hunter, Naruto, Dragon Ball, The Girl From the Other Side, The Ancient Magus' Bride. If you have any other recommendations please comment!
• I'm also on the search for cookbooks so if anyone has any recommendations please let me know! I have some already on my wishlist, mostly the Pinch of Nom books!

Gaming:

• I don't play games as much as I used to but I do have a backlog of games that I would like to complete, my current focus is Cult of the Lamb.

Learning:

• I have been trying to learn French for years! I really want to prioritise Duolingo and aim to finish all of the lessons on there before moving on to another language. If you have any tips please comment!

So those are some of my current main goals. If you'd like to share, what are some of yours?

Recent reading updates 19/9

• Caught up with Spy x Family
• Started The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches (getting bedknobs and broomsticks vibes and loving it)
• Thinking of starting One Piece?
• Have no decided audiobook

How about you?

My current reading plans

Hi! So the genres that I am interested in keeps changing! Last year (and some of this year) I read a lot of middlegrade (mainly fantasy) that I really enjoyed. I also read some graphic novels/comics and a lot of Spy x Family! This year I have been reading a wider variety of books. 

I was working on reducing my physical TBR which I have done! I was reading a lot via audio but for some reason I have lost interest in audiobooks for now and I am really into reading on Kindle! 

So on my Kindle I have some books in different genres. As I have been more in a mystery mood, I separated my Kindle books by genre. I have some fantasy romance and some middlegrade that I need to get to at some point.

I've been reading the Detective Kosuke Kindaichi books and I'm finding them to be great page turners. At the moment I really feel like reading more Japanese detective books, then some biology/nature books.

What are your current reading plans?

Jack of Thorns

Laurence Riley might be able to see the future, but he can't see a way to fix his messed-up life. He can't control anything—not his supernatural talents, not his drug addiction, and not his violent ex-boyfriend. Laurence needs help and he knows it. A lifelong pagan, he turns to his god... and he gets Jack. Jack can help Laurence tame his powers and take control of his life. But it comes at a price: Laurence will need to keep him fed with regular offerings of sex. For the old Laurence, that would've been a pleasure. Problem is, Laurence has met Quentin.

Quentin is devastatingly handsome, way out of Laurence's league (like British nobility levels of out-of-his-league), and unbearably chaste. If that weren’t enough to keep Laurence away, Quentin's wild telekinesis is even more uncontrollable than Laurence's precognition. But Laurence doesn't want anyone else, and Jack is getting hungry.

Then Laurence foresees a glimpse of Jack's true plan. It will leave a trail of death across San Diego--and Laurence has been helping him do it. The past has taught him that the future can't be changed. But if Laurence and Quentin can't stop Jack, there won't be any future at all.

Jack of Thorns is the first book in a dark urban fantasy series where X-Men meets The Magicians.

Responsibilities You Take On When You Hire For Your Small Business

This is a collaborative post and it may contain affiliate links

Most small businesses come to the point where they recognise that they need to start hiring to take on the work that the owner can’t handle themselves. However, aside from the many benefits that come with having a team under you, there are also responsibilities that you had better be ready to deal with, as well. Here, we’re going to look at some of those.
