I'm here to talk about great books and share Stardew Valley memes.
lol, I love all the mindf**ks the author puts us through.
I sometimes think the person who made this meme was not very far off the mark. 😅

I really loved "5 Stars". There were so many oldschool videogame references in it, I lost count. The ending really f'ed me up, though, when everyone was singing the Anthem of Hope as reality dissolved around them. Then I found out about Gamma & the 3-legged dog🤭 10/10

"Vivian Amberville - The Book of Chaos" made me feel ALL the feels. Together with "5 Stars", it honestly gave me some of the best fake memories of my life! 🥰😭

Thank you Louise Blackwick, for walking this literary path and for spoiling us with such AMAZING books! - and now a Bookfest!

Merry Xmas!💙📚

Oh no! I still haven't recovered from that emotional damage.😅

Holy crapola, look at that geographically-accurate teenie-tiny world map made of wood! Wtf, this is super well-made! 😍

Happy Birthday @vivianamberville.com and congratulations to @louiseblackwick.com on putting the Netherlands on the world map with her literary achievements! ♥️

(and for raising the national GDP of our tiny little country 😊)

Goddammit, I got ghosted again.😆

Anyway, enjoy this gourmet #StardewValley #meme

Yeah, it's not just the 16 plotlines. I've been saying since the beginning @vivianamberville.com has got like a million layers of meaning. Finally, the readers are starting to catch up on its merits.🤭

One of the best crafted "puzzlebox mysteries" (and epic, dark fantasy book series) in forever! 💙📚

Vivian Amberville's story gets so much better in the sequel, in my opinion. "The Weaver of Odds" was just the appetizer while "The Book of Chaos" is the main course 😊

Time loops, puzzlebox mysteries, original magic systems, cosmic horror, cool characters & more twists & turns than you can count! 💙📚

@louiseblackwick.com did you just create an Instagram account today or is this an impersonator? 😮😃🤩

Seriously, how is this even LEGAL?🤯

Those pale imitations of generative text will never be as amazing and full of soul and originality as your own stories!

🤭 ikr! "5 Stars" was hilariously funny, but dark as all hell. There are also like 1000 videogame references in it, which makes it the unofficial sequel to "Ready Player One"

wait, is that you dressed as a Chaos Weaver and wielding Vivian Amberville's knife, Bloodeater? 😮

Omg, I remember this story! It was so freaking weird and surreal! Lots of really profound ideas in it, but a lot of weird s**t too! 🤭

It was as though Kafka was dropping acid 🤭

This review probably reflects it best:

I think some part of you knew, deep-deep inside your teenage heart, that Vivian Amberville was going to be the most meme-able dark fantasy book series.🤭
September 25, 2025 at 11:17 AM
It can still happen, you know!
September 25, 2025 at 9:49 AM
oooh this is such cool #vivianamberville #art. 🤗 I'd love to see more of it, if you ever make more.

I love the style of your covers too. It's a bit rough-around-the-edges, which kind of gives your covers that "instant fantasy classic" vibe.

(I downloaded this WIP pic from your patreon, btw)
September 25, 2025 at 8:53 AM
Yeah, yeah. And here is the photo I took of you last week, during our walk.

Honestly, you are the most teenager-looking, 38 year old woman, I've ever met. 😅
September 24, 2025 at 11:11 PM
Same here. 💯 me... :'(
September 24, 2025 at 10:55 PM
Wait, he texts back?

Coo-coo-cool. Now where do I find one of those? 🫢
September 24, 2025 at 10:34 PM
I know you really love Japanese myths as well, so if you haven't read it yet, I thought of this book.
September 12, 2025 at 11:27 AM
Haha, ain't that the truth! 😄

The Book of Chaos was 18/10 for me. Best epic dark fantasy book in forever! Congrats on the achievement!
